AI Crawler Management: Choose Which AI Bots Visit
AI crawler management services control which bots can read your pages and which are turned away. Omeiro lets AI search bots such as SearchGPT and PerplexityBot index your content while blocking training scrapers such as Common Crawl and Bytespider, using robots.txt and rules at the edge.

What you get with AI crawler management
Granular crawler access control: allowing AI search indexing bots (SearchGPT, PerplexityBot) while blocking uncompensated training scrapers (Common Crawl, Bytespider) via edge rules.

AI bot rules in robots.txt for 1 domain. 1-day delivery, 2 revisions.
Standard Package
Cloudflare bot rules: allow AI search bots, block training scrapers. 3-day delivery, 2 revisions.

Clear brief first
We confirm what you need before work starts, so the scope is clear on both sides.
Revisions listed
Each package shows its revision rounds. A round is one list of changes sent together.
Yours once paid
Copyright of the final work passes to you once the order is paid in full.
Ad spend and tool subscriptions are paid by you, straight to each platform. Results depend on many things outside anyone's control, so we report plainly on what was done.
How our AI crawler management works
Choose your stance
We agree which bots you want to allow, such as search indexers, and which to block.
Write the rules
Directives are drafted in robots.txt and, on higher tiers, at the edge in Cloudflare.
Test the effect
We check that allowed bots can still fetch pages and blocked ones are refused.
Monitor
Premium reviews your logs and keeps watch for 30 days.
What to decide before AI crawler management
Start with a written list of what you actually want from AI platforms. Some owners want citations and referral visits from answer engines, while others want no AI use of their pages at all. The stance you choose decides the rules, so settle it before ordering, along with any sections, such as paid or members-only content, that need stricter treatment than the public blog. Having that list ready makes ai crawler management quick instead of a debate halfway through the project.
Bot names change, and some scrapers disguise themselves with ordinary browser user-agent strings, so a rule written once can age. That is why we explain each directive in plain words and note which ones rely on bots being polite and which are enforced at the edge. Good ai crawler management also leaves a record: which bots appeared in your logs, what was decided about each, and what to revisit when new ones turn up.
In short

AI Crawler Management: common questions
How much does AI crawler management cost?
Prices are fixed and shown by package on our AI Crawler Management pricing page, so you see the full price before you order. You can also ask for a custom quote.
How long does AI bot blocking consulting take?
Delivery depends on the package: Basic 1-day delivery; Standard 3-day delivery; Premium 5-day delivery.
What is included in the Basic Package?
The Basic Package includes: AI bot rules in robots.txt for 1 domain. Higher packages add more scope, revisions and support.
Can I get a custom gptbot access control package?
Yes. If none of the packages fits, use the custom package form on our pricing page to describe what you need, and our team sends you a fixed price.
Will blocking training bots hurt my Google rankings?
Training scrapers are separate from Googlebot, so blocking them does not remove you from standard search. We keep search bots allowed.
Do robots.txt rules actually stop scrapers?
Well-behaved bots follow them, but some ignore them, which is why Standard and Premium add edge rules in Cloudflare.
Which AI bots can you control?
Examples include SearchGPT, PerplexityBot, Common Crawl and Bytespider. Tell us any others you see in your logs.
Do I need Cloudflare?
Edge rules in Standard and Premium use Cloudflare. Basic works through robots.txt alone.
Should I block GPTBot or allow it?
It depends on whether you are comfortable with your content being used to train OpenAI models. That choice is separate from allowing search-focused bots, so we set each bot deliberately instead of all-or-nothing.
Who owns the final work?
Copyright of the final work passes to you once the order is paid in full. Paid fonts, stock files or licences, if used, are licensed in your name.
