AI crawler access tips

Allow bots you want in AI answers. GPTBot and ClaudeBot train models; ChatGPT-User and PerplexityBot power live retrieval — know which you intend to allow.

Avoid blanket Disallow: /. A wildcard block on User-agent: * stops every crawler, including AI bots.

Check Cloudflare AI bot settings. Some hosts add AI blocks automatically — verify robots.txt after CDN or WAF changes.

Reference your sitemap. Add Sitemap: in robots.txt to help discovery — use our XML Sitemap Checker to validate the file.

Pair with a GEO site audit. Letting crawlers in is step one; Site Audit checks whether your homepage is structurally GEO-ready.

AI Crawler Checker FAQ

Everything you need to know about gptmelo.com. Can't find an answer? Contact us.

Is GPTBot blocked on my site?

Enter your domain and we fetch robots.txt, then check whether GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, and other AI crawlers are blocked by blanket Disallow rules.

Does this simulate live crawler fetches?

No. This tool parses robots.txt rules only — it does not send requests with each bot user-agent. For per-URL simulation, use a dedicated crawl tester.

How is this different from Site Audit?

Site Audit includes AI crawler access as one technical check among eighteen. This tool specializes in robots.txt with per-bot status and a file preview.

Do I need an account to see results?

No. Domain checks preview in this browser session without a signup wall. Sign in when you want saved site audits and workspace tools.
