AI Crawler Request Share
A direct, first-party read on how much of the machine attention a property receives is coming from AI systems.
- Measures
- Requests from crawlers fingerprinted to AI vendors, as a share of all classified crawler requests, trended over time.
- Data Source
- Classified raw server request logs.
- Indicates
- How AI systems are weighting this property relative to how search crawlers do.
- What Moves It
- Machine-readable structure, content that answers recurring questions, and being referenced somewhere those systems already read.
- Does Not Prove
- Citation, answer inclusion, or training use. A request is a request.
- Status
- Measured. Vendor identification relies on user agent claims supported by published address ranges, and both carry uncertainty.
Keep search, AI search, training, and user retrieval separate when reading this. Purpose is a configured grouping of vendor fingerprints, not proof of what any individual request was for.
