Bot Check is a free tool that scans any website's robots.txt file to show whether AI bots like GPTBot or ClaudeBot are allowed to crawl your content. No coding or signup required.

👋 Hey everyone, I’m Graydon, the creator of Bot Check! I built this tool after realizing just how many websites unknowingly allow AI scrapers like GPTBot and ClaudeBot to crawl and use their content for training. As a writer and creator myself, that didn’t sit right. Bot Check is free, simple to use, and doesn’t require any signup. Just enter a website, and it checks the robots.txt file to show you whether common AI bots are allowed in or blocked. This isn’t about gatekeeping — it’s about giving creators a choice. If you want to share your work with AI models, awesome. But if not, you should know how to protect it. Would love your feedback, ideas, or even suggestions for which bots to include next. 🙏 Try it here: https://graydonschwartz.com/bot-... Thanks for checking it out!

This is truely awesome! I love that it's free and no signup is needed – super easy to just pop in a URL and see what's up. Knowing which bots are accessing my site is kinda genius imo, especially since I'm a little paranoid about AI scraping my content. So simple yet solves a real problem – what a great idea! Does it work with .wordpress sites too?
