PaceghostBot

What is PaceghostBot?

PaceghostBot is the official crawler used by Paceghost.io, a platform that helps site owners monitor and improve how their websites are seen by AI systems, search agents, and large language models.

We use this bot to analyze public pages on request and simulate how AI crawlers interpret your content.

User Agent

PaceghostBot identifies itself using the following user agent string:

user-agent
PaceghostBot/1.0 (+https://www.paceghost.io/resources/paceghostbot/)

You can use this string in your server logs or analytics tools to identify and monitor our visits.

Privacy and Scope

PaceghostBot only scans websites explicitly requested by users on our platform. We do not store personal data or perform unsolicited crawling.

  • We do not follow internal links
  • We do not crawl pages blocked by robots.txt
  • We do not store full page content outside temporary analysis

How to Block PaceghostBot

If you prefer not to allow PaceghostBot to access your site, simply disallow it via your robots.txt file.

Example:

robots.txt
User-agent: PaceghostBot
Disallow: /

Our bot will respect this directive fully.
