The Crawler Logs

The Crawler Logs document real AI crawler behavior on production AI sites built by ROZZ. Using CloudFront access logs and User-Agent classification, we track how GPTBot, BingBot, ClaudeBot, ChatGPT-User, PerplexityBot, and other LLM bots discover, crawl, and cite GEO-optimized content. Across 143 days of observation on rozz.genymotion.com, we recorded 46,418 total LLM bot requests and 14,465 citation events—real users receiving Genymotion content in AI conversations.

What AI bots read, what they ignore, and what an AI site is actually for. Part 1: Citation bots

21 days of clean bot logs. ChatGPT-User and Claude-User made 1,517 content fetches on Genymotion’s AI site. Q&As behave as demand-driven answers (61% corpus coverage); pages behave as supply-driven source citations (24% coverage, but 79% of Q&A sessions also fetched at least one cited source).

AI Site Structure Matters More than We Thought

Genymotion’s AI site has 16 topic pages. In one week of logs, AI platforms asked for 61 more that no longer exist—1,001 requests to retired topic URLs. Clustering-algorithm iterations kept improving the taxonomy but broke every external cache that learned the old map.

Methodology

Data source: CloudFront access logs for rozz.genymotion.com. Bot classification based on User-Agent strings. Training bots (GPTBot, ClaudeBot) are distinguished from search index bots (OAI-SearchBot) and citation events (ChatGPT-User). Citation events represent real user conversations where ChatGPT retrieved and cited mirror site content. All data is from a single production mirror site; results may vary by domain, content volume, and vertical.
