Frequently Asked Questions
Should I Block CrunchBot?
Watch it first. CrunchBot has not been categorized yet, so there is no track record to lean on. Check which pages it requests and how often, and block it if the traffic is heavy or pointed at content you would not give an unknown bot. Almost none of the top websites we track have robots.txt rules for CrunchBot right now.
Does CrunchBot Follow Robots.txt Rules?
Yes. CrunchBot is expected to follow robots.txt rules, so a disallow rule is the right first move. Automatic Robots.txt adds and maintains that rule for you, and Agent Analytics confirms CrunchBot actually follows it.
Does CrunchBot Access Private Content?
Unknown. CrunchBot has no documented scope, so watch what it actually requests. Repeated hits on login or admin paths are the signal to block it.
Why Is CrunchBot Visiting My Website?
Nobody knows yet. CrunchBot is undocumented, so until its operator explains it, its behavior on your site is the only evidence of its intent.
How Can I Tell if CrunchBot Is Visiting My Website?
Agent Analytics tracks CrunchBot visits in real time alongside every other known AI agent, crawler, and scraper. You can also check your server logs for requests whose user agent string contains "CrunchBot". Log the paths it requests and how often, since nothing about it is documented. Keep in mind that CrunchBot doesn't publish a verification method, so any client can claim its user agent string and a log match is a hint rather than proof.
