Paste robots.txt to inspect OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Perplexity, and Common Crawl access signals.

What this checker reviews

It reads robots.txt groups and checks whether major AI search, training, user-triggered, and control-token agents are explicitly covered or only inherit general crawler rules.

Why AI crawler rules matter

Robots.txt can affect whether AI answer engines, browsing agents, model-training crawlers, and dataset crawlers can reach public pages for discovery or citation.

How to use the result

Resolve mixed rules first, then decide whether each AI crawler should be allowed for visibility or blocked for content-control reasons.

FAQ

Which AI crawlers does this check?

It checks OAI-SearchBot, GPTBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, Claude-SearchBot, Claude-User, Google-Extended, PerplexityBot, and CCBot, plus the fallback rule for all crawlers.

Should I allow GPTBot and ClaudeBot?

Allow search-focused agents when AI search visibility matters. Treat model-training agents separately when content reuse control is more important than training-data inclusion.

Is Google-Extended the same as Googlebot?

No. Google-Extended is a robots.txt control token, not a separate HTTP crawler user agent, and it does not control normal Google Search inclusion.

Can robots.txt guarantee AI systems will not use my content?

Robots.txt is an access policy for cooperative crawlers, not a legal or technical guarantee against every content use.
