Intent

I need it when

Diagnose and fix robots.txt configuration issues that are unintentionally blocking AI crawlers

The product detects common robots.txt mistakes like wildcard blocks, incorrect user-agent names for AI crawlers (GPTBot, Claude-Web, PerplexityBot, OAI-SearchBot), and CMS-generated default blocks. It provides specific guidance on fixing these issues to restore AI crawler access.

Verify that AI search engines like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity can access and crawl their website

The tool checks crawlability in 10 seconds across ChatGPT, Claude, Google, Perplexity, Meta AI, Apple Siri, and Amazon Alexa. It identifies blocked crawlers, syntax errors, wildcard blocks, missing sitemaps, and CMS default blocks that prevent AI visibility.

Monitor ongoing AI visibility and track which AI platforms can recommend their content to users

The Pro and Enterprise plans include Answer Engine Monitoring that tracks recommendations across ChatGPT, Google, Meta, Claude, Perplexity, and Grok. Users can monitor how their site appears in AI search results and identify gaps in AI visibility.

Understand which AI crawlers should be allowed or blocked based on business goals and competitive positioning

The tool educates users on AI crawler user-agent names, explains the difference between training crawlers (GPTBot) and real-time browsing crawlers (ChatGPT-User), and helps users make informed decisions about allowing AI crawlers to increase AI-driven traffic and recommendations.

Optimize content strategy for AI search engines as a complement to traditional SEO

The platform provides Content Gap Reports and Content Generation tools to help users create content optimized for AI platforms. It enables Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) as a complement to traditional SEO, addressing the fact that 30% of searches now happen in AI tools.

  • User operates in jurisdiction with strict data residency requirements and cannot use EU-hosted service
  • User needs historical crawlability data spanning multiple years; product focuses on current state analysis
