How it works
- 1
Enter any URL
We hit it 6 different ways: Googlebot, GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Bingbot, and a real Chrome browser.
- 2
Compare visible text
If GPTBot sees 200 words but Chrome sees 5,000, your article is invisible to AI assistants.
- 3
Watch for blocks
403/401 means a crawler was rejected - usually robots.txt or a WAF rule.

Verify JSON-LD reaches them
Structured data needs to be in the initial HTML. If it's only added after JS hydration, AI bots miss it.
A small detail that compounds.
AI assistants don't execute JavaScript on most pages. If your content only appears after React hydrates, GPTBot and ClaudeBot see an empty shell - and they'll cite your competitor instead of you.
The gap between what a browser sees and what a crawler sees is the single most important diagnostic in modern SEO. The crawler view is what shows up in search and AI answers.
Server-rendered, structured, citation-friendly.
Sight AI articles are static, server-rendered HTML. Every word, every link, every schema block is in the initial response - no JavaScript required to read them.
That's the foundation for ranking on Google AND getting cited by ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity. Identical content reaches every crawler.
- Server-rendered HTML readable without JavaScript
- Schema.org structured data in the initial response
- Lightweight pages - no client-side framework bloat
- Cleanly indexed, deeply cited, fast to load
Common questions.
Why do AI bots see different content than my browser?
Most AI bots don't run JavaScript. If your site uses client-side rendering, AI sees the empty shell while users see the hydrated app. Server-render the body to fix this.
Should I block AI bots?
Allowing them puts you in AI assistant answers. Blocking them protects content from training but eliminates citation visibility. There's no universally right answer; pick consciously per site.
Why does Bingbot see less than Googlebot?
Bing's rendering pipeline is more conservative on heavy JS. If you only render content client-side, Bing often misses pieces Google catches.
Can I tell if I was actually blocked?
A 403 or 401 status, or a 200 with an obviously different (smaller) body - both indicate filtering. Sometimes it's your CDN, sometimes it's an over-eager WAF.
