What is AI Bot Path Tester?
AI Bot Path Tester validates how important URL paths behave for AI user-agents. It evaluates robots.txt matching and compares that with x-robots-tag headers on the page response.
Why it matters for AI SEO: A path can be allowed in robots.txt while still returning restrictive response directives. These conflicts create inconsistent crawl and indexing signals for retrieval systems.
Launch QA: Test newly published content paths to ensure key AI crawlers can access high-value pages before campaigns launch.
Template Verification: Detect x-robots-tag directives applied globally by middleware or edge rules that accidentally weaken AI discoverability.
Policy Audits: Check multiple paths and bots in one run to verify your AI crawl policy is applied consistently across sections.
