Frequently Asked Questions

•Why should I control AI crawlers?

Allowing AI crawlers can help your content appear in AI search answers (like Perplexity or ChatGPT Search). Blocking them prevents your content from being used to train models, but might reduce your visibility in their real-time results.

•Does 'Disallow: /' block everything?

Yes, 'Disallow: /' tells a specific bot (or all bots if under User-agent: *) not to visit any page on your site.

•What is GPTBot vs ChatGPT-User?

GPTBot is the crawler used to crawl data for training OpenAI's models. ChatGPT-User is the agent used when a user explicitly asks ChatGPT to browse a specific webpage.

•How do I unblock a specific bot?

You can add a specific block for that bot with 'Allow: /'. For example: User-agent: GPTBot Allow: /
