Frequently Asked Questions
Should I Block ElevenlabsBot?
Usually not. Blocking ElevenlabsBot can keep your pages out of AI-generated answers and eliminate potential citation traffic. It does not improve traditional search rankings. Almost none of the top websites we track currently have robots.txt rules for ElevenlabsBot.
Does ElevenlabsBot Follow Robots.txt Rules?
Yes. ElevenlabsBot is expected to follow robots.txt rules, so a disallow rule is the appropriate first step. Automatic Robots.txt can add and maintain that rule, while Agent Analytics lets you verify whether ElevenlabsBot respects it.
Does ElevenlabsBot Access Private Content?
Not ordinarily. ElevenlabsBot fetches pages as an anonymous visitor without a stored login. Content protected by a paywall or login remains out of reach.
How Can I Tell if ElevenlabsBot Is Visiting My Website?
Agent Analytics tracks ElevenlabsBot visits in real time. You can also check your server logs for requests whose user-agent string contains "ElevenlabsBot". Look for a single-page request with no follow-up navigation. Because ElevenlabsBot does not publish a verification method, any client can claim its identity and a log match is only a clue.
Why Is ElevenlabsBot Visiting My Website?
A user asked ElevenLabs's assistant a question your page could help answer. ElevenlabsBot retrieved the page to support its response, often with a citation linking back to your site.
