The same checks, run on your domain now: what robots.txt tells each AI crawler, whether the edge answers them, and whether the text is readable without JavaScript. Free, no signup.
Limits: 8 checks and 5 different domains per address per hour; a repeat of the same domain inside 7 days is answered from what we already hold.
Limitation: this test appends a labelled marker to our own honest User Agent, it never impersonates another agent. Rules keyed to an exact User Agent string, or to a vendor's IP ranges, are invisible to this method and are neither confirmed nor ruled out.
AEO Watch is an independent, factual monitor. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or speaking for any crawler vendor. Every statement is an observation with the date it was made and the raw evidence behind it: a robots.txt line, an HTTP status code, a header. There are no scores, no grades and no verdicts here, and nothing on this page is advice. A site opts out at any time and the opt out is honoured automatically and permanently.
