FriendlyCrawler
Bot in AI search and SEO
Stub
The training scraper FriendlyCrawler is operated by Unknown. It collects text in bulk for model training, which is a separate question from whether an AI product can cite the site today. It appears in server logs as friendlycrawler.
Verification
There is no documentation page or IP range list from Unknown that we can point at for this token.
A user agent is a claim, not a proof: any client can send any name. Where an operator publishes IP ranges, a reverse lookup is the only way to tell a real visit from an impersonation.
