AI Crawler (GPTBot, ClaudeBot…)

The bots that read your site for AI systems — GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended.

AI crawlers fetch your pages to train or ground models. Common ones include GPTBot (OpenAI), ClaudeBot (Anthropic), PerplexityBot and Google-Extended.

If these bots can't reach your key pages — blocked paths, JavaScript-only content — models learn about you from weaker third-party sources.

Confirming crawlability and publishing clean, server-rendered content is foundational GEO hygiene.
