AI for AnalyticsStop thief!
Rights holders need to decide if and how to license their copyrighted material.
Some AI companies are prepared to identify themselves and then offer content owners monetization options. But what about the ones that either don't or are offering rubbish terms?
51Degrees gives you the data you need to stop the bad AIs, and be rewarded by the good.
Complete Toolkit
All web requests contain passive information that can be used to identify device, platform, app or browser, and human or bot.
- IP address can be used in aggregate to determine the likelihood of a web session being from a human or not.
- User-Agent identifies AIs that want to be identified, and can be used with IP address to single out suspicious activity.
Three AIs
The good, the bad, and the ugly
Some AIs play nicely with publishers, others just want something for nothing, and then there's the ones that keep tipping the value exchange in their favor.
Use our IsArtificialIntelligence property to identify the AIs that want to be identified.
Then use CrawlerName to find the common name of the AI and decide how you want to treat it.
If you've a payment arrangement with the AI operator then let them in. If not then send them to a web page so they can find out how to set a payment relationship.
Here's the page we send AIs that crawl location and device information to.

Too many AIs are not identifying themselves and pretending to be humans.
We've got you covered here with our HumanProbability property. A number between 1 and 10 indicates how likely the request is to be from a human.
Armed with this information you can decide when to challenge for proof of humanity.
Here's the page we send suspicious activity to.
If you're not a B2B then a captcha can be used to separate silicon from carbon based life.
Some crawlers use the same request to obtain data for both search results and AI overviews.
These can't be blocked via technical means without suffering in search. No one wants that.
Our friends at Movement for an Open Web (MOW) can help. Cases are being run against big tech companies to limit their use of AI overviews in search results.
