AI Crawler Control is a specialized sub-feature of Bot Management. The two are complementary but focus on different areas:
| Dimension | AI Crawler Control | Bot Management |
|---|---|---|
| Coverage | Focused on crawlers used for AI search, training, and applications | Covers search engines, general crawlers, malicious bots, and more |
| AI Data Scrapers | AI scraping compliance audits, content licensing management | Security protection, SEO optimization, resource protection |
| Key Features | Dedicated identification and control for AI crawlers | Public Bots management, multi-dimensional rules, behavior analysis, JavaScript detection, Bot Tag Forwarding to Origin, and more |
| Priority | Custom Bots > AI Crawler Control > Public Bots > Definite Bots > Likely Bots > Web Bot Detection > Workflow Detection | |
| Recommendation | You can use both features together to achieve comprehensive Bot traffic management alongside targeted AI crawler control. | |
2.How does AI Crawler Control relate to the existing “AI Bots” feature in Bot Management?
AI Crawler Control is an upgraded version of the “AI Bots” feature previously provided in Bot Management. After the upgrade, AI Crawler Control operates as an independent module offering richer visual analysis and more granular control. Policy configurations from the original AI Bots feature have been automatically migrated to the AI Crawler Control module. On the Security Policy edit page, under the Bot Management tab, clicking Configure for AI Bots now takes you directly to the AI Crawler Control > Crawler Control page for unified management.
