What does Robots.txt do?

A robots.txt file resides at the root of your domain (e.g., https://example.com/robots.txt) and instructs automated web crawlers which pages or files they can or cannot request from your site. It is primarily used to avoid overloading your server with requests and to prevent non-public administrative paths from cluttering search results.

Controlling AI Data Scrapers

Modern AI platforms deploy web scrapers (such as OpenAI's GPTBot and Anthropic's ClaudeBot) to gather training datasets. By including specific user-agent directives in your robots.txt, you can choose whether AI bots can scrape your content.
