Your site has a second audience. Meet it.
AI systems read the web to train, to answer, and to fetch pages live for their users. Visitant measures all three and connects them to the humans who click through.
Not every AI bot is the same bot.
Training
GPTBot, ClaudeBot, CCBot, Bytespider. They collect text for future models and send no traffic back - this is what most robots.txt rules should target.
AI search
OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Claude-SearchBot. They build the index assistants answer and link from. Block them and you disappear from answers.
Live fetch
ChatGPT-User, Claude-User, Perplexity-User. Someone just asked an assistant about your topic and it is reading your page right now. The warmest demand signal there is.
