# AI Traffic

> See which AI crawlers visit your website and which pages they request

AI Traffic records requests from AI assistants, search crawlers, and training crawlers.

It runs on your server, edge function, or proxy. Browser analytics cannot record crawlers that do not run JavaScript.

  B -. "small background event" .-> D["Armature"]
  D --> E["Classify and verify"]
  E --> F["AI Traffic dashboard"]
```

Armature shows:

* Total AI requests and verified requests.
* Traffic over time by purpose, AI company, or bot.
* Top crawlers and top pages.
* Recent requests and verification status.
* Optional non-AI bot traffic.

The package does not change your page response. It sends crawler events in the background.
