AI crawler checker

See which AI crawlers can read any website, and exactly which robots.txt rule allows or blocks them.

How it works

Check AI crawler access in three steps

  1. STEP 1

    Enter a website

    Type any domain. We read its public robots.txt, llms.txt and home page tags.

  2. STEP 2

    See every bot

    Each AI crawler is marked Allowed, Blocked or Partly blocked, with the exact rule and line.

  3. STEP 3

    Fix it

    Open the result in our robots.txt generator to change the rules in a click.

Why check AI crawlers?

AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini can only cite pages their crawlers are allowed to read. Many sites block them by accident, for example with an old robots.txt template or a security plugin. Others want to block training while staying visible in AI search. This checker shows the real situation in seconds.
