AI & Bot Activity

This page answers who is accessing the website, how, when, how often, with what observed outcome, and with what identity confidence.


What you can review

  • Observed Bot Activity and Observed AI Bot Activity
  • Bots observed in the selected period
  • Operator and bot identity (verified, self-identified, or unknown)
  • Actor class
  • Likely purpose and purpose confidence
  • Activity trend
  • Top pages and sections accessed
  • HTTP status coverage and successful, error, or block outcomes where available
  • Latest observed activity and live request activity when request-level evidence exists

How to interpret it

  • Operator is not the same as bot identity.
  • Actor class is not the same as likely purpose.
  • Network country is request infrastructure context, not content performance.
  • A request does not prove reading, understanding, citation, or training use.
  • Request timing charts appear only when request-level evidence exists—not daily rollups alone.
