AI Bot Inspector

Is your website ready for AI-driven search engines, chatbots, and agents? Modern AI crawlers utilize web scrapers to parse your site. AI Bot Inspector is a developer tool that audits your website’s robots.txt file for compliance with search crawler rules, format guidelines, and block/allow directories. With a single click, it runs a deep audit, checks 40+ top bots, and displays findings inside an interactive dashboard.

Key Features

  1. Auto-Audit Mode
    Pulls your active browser tab’s domain, fetches its robots.txt file, and runs a compliance check on-demand.
  2. Custom Sandbox
    Allows developers to paste raw robots.txt rule blocks directly into the extension to analyze and dry-run directives before they are deployed to production.
  3. Status Classification
    Categorizes bots into Blocked (Errors), Allowed Implicitly (Warnings), and Whitelisted (Passes) alongside explicit rule counts.
  4. Structured CSV Exports
    Download complete compliance logs in a standard spreadsheet format for documentation and reports.

Privacy and Permissions

This extension runs entirely inside your browser. It reads the robots.txt file from the host domain on-demand. No data is sent to external servers.

Permissions requested:

  • activeTab: To determine the host domain of the active website when you open the extension.
  • host_permissions (): To fetch and retrieve the robots.txt file directly from the active tab’s domain using standard browser APIs.

Privacy Policy

We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your data. This section explains how the AI Bot Inspector extension handles information.

Information We Collect

  • No Personal Information: We do not collect, store, or request personal identifiers such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, or account details.
  • No Browsing History: We do not track your browsing history, page clicks, or session data.
  • No Technical Data Collection: The extension does not record IP addresses, device configurations, or hardware signatures.

How We Use Your Information

Because no data is collected, we do not use, transmit, or share any information. All robots.txt parsing and scoring rules are computed in real-time, locally on your machine.

  • We do not sell, rent, or trade your data.
  • We do not use database logging or external servers.

Cookies and Tracking

This extension does not use tracking cookies, pixel trackers, or analytics scripts (such as Google Analytics).

Data Security

All processes occur inside your local Chrome extension sandbox. Since no data is transmitted or stored on third-party systems, your web configurations and activity remain completely private.

Third-Party Services

The extension communicates directly with the active tab’s domain to download its public /robots.txt file. No middleman API, scraper proxy, or third-party web service is involved in this transfer.
