Use Cases

Site owners checking whether ChatGPT or Perplexity can cite their content

SEO/GEO practitioners auditing a client's AI-crawler exposure

Publishers deciding whether to allow or block AI training and search crawlers

Comments

Built this after finding that 44% of sites blocking GPTBot also block OAI-SearchBot without realizing it's a different crawler with a different job. Wanted a free, no-signup way for anyone to check their own site in seconds, backed by real census data instead of a guess.
