The AI-Crawler Observatory

See which AI crawlers read you, before you connect

See which AI crawlers read your site, with no account at all. The plugin checks each visitor on your own server against a list of known AI crawlers that ships inside it, and shows you which of them came, how often, and which pages they read. Nothing is sent anywhere until you switch sharing on, and both sharing switches start off.

AEOSearch → Dashboard, dark scheme
AEOSearch → Dashboard, dark scheme — Crawler hits by label and day, with the raw user-agent string never forwarded

Yours to keep, or to forward

Give it the address of a server you run, and once a day it sends the page path and the crawler's name for each visit, never the raw user-agent string (the line a browser or a bot sends to say what it is). Leave the switch off and nothing leaves.

Who reads you, beside who names you

A second switch sends only the daily count for each crawler (its name and a number) to your AEOSearch account once a day, so you can see which crawlers read you beside which engines name you. Turn it off and the sending stops that moment.

Questions

Do I need to connect an account to use this?

No. The recognition and its dashboard run entirely on your own server.

What exactly reaches my own collector URL?

The page path and the crawler's label, batched once a day. Never a raw user-agent string.
