AI Crawlability Checker
Verify AI crawlers can access your website
AI crawlability determines whether AI systems can discover, access, and index your website's content. Our AI Crawlability Checker examines your robots.txt, meta directives, and technical configuration to ensure AI crawlers aren't blocked from accessing your valuable content.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do AI systems have their own crawlers?
Yes, many AI companies operate their own web crawlers (like GPTBot for OpenAI, Claude-Web for Anthropic) to build and update their knowledge bases. These crawlers respect robots.txt directives and other access controls.
Should I allow AI crawlers?
If you want your content to be discoverable and potentially cited by AI systems, allowing AI crawlers is beneficial. However, you have full control over which AI systems can access your content through robots.txt configuration.
