AI crawler access audit · United States

Can AI crawlers actually access your website?

Know what is blocking AI access, give your developer the fix, and move on—without buying another dashboard or reinventing the audit internally. Built for commercially aware Heads of Digital, CMOs, SEO leads and developers, this fixed-price, human-reviewed audit separates declared crawler policy from observed access and turns the evidence into a prioritized remediation brief.

Checker versus audit

A rule check is useful. Evidence is better.

Free AI crawler checkers are useful for a quick reading of robots.txt. A paid access audit is for teams that need a defensible record of declared policy, separately observed access and developer-ready remediation. It does not promise citations or rankings: it establishes the technical access layer beneath them.

LAYER 01 · THIS AUDIT

Access and retrieval

robots.txt, AI identity classes, sitemaps, redirects, live response evidence and—on the Full Audit—CDN/WAF edge behaviour.

Measured by Digital Dominator
LAYER 02 · SEPARATE

Understanding and authority

Whether machines can identify the entity, trust its claims and reconcile its supporting signals across the web.

Not inferred from access
LAYER 03 · SEPARATE

Answer selection

Whether a particular model selects, mentions or cites the organisation for a particular prompt, time and market.

No ranking guarantee

This distinction protects you from paying to “fix AI visibility” when the actual issue is not technical access—and from receiving a reassuring access score that says nothing about authority or answer selection.

Common questions

AI visibility audit FAQ

Will this show whether ChatGPT mentions my business?

No. It shows whether technical access or retrieval is a likely barrier and supplies evidence-backed fixes. Prompt monitoring and brand-mention measurement are different services.

Why test crawler identities separately?

Search/discovery, user-triggered fetch, training and data-use controls serve different functions. Combining them into one allowed/blocked headline can produce the wrong business conclusion.

Who is this designed for?

US brands, enterprise marketing teams, agencies and developers with a live website and a commercial reason to investigate AI retrieval. It is most useful when the buyer needs defensible evidence and actionable remediation rather than a free generic score.

How quickly is the report delivered?

Every paid report is human-reviewed and delivered within five business days. The Full Audit includes a walkthrough call and a free re-check after the agreed fixes are applied.
