What is ElevenlabsCrawler?

Block ElevenlabsCrawler if you want more control over whether your work is used for AI training.

Agent Analytics tracks ElevenlabsCrawler visits in real time. You can also check your server logs for requests whose user-agent string contains "ElevenlabsCrawler". Look for high page counts, short gaps between requests, and deep traversal through linked content. Because ElevenlabsCrawler does not publish a verification method, any client can claim its identity and a log match is only a clue.
