Advanced analytics: bots, AI crawlers and more
See everything that visits your site, not just readers.
Updated September 30, 2026
Your main Analytics page counts real readers only. Advanced analytics shows the rest: the automated visitors that normal analytics tools can't see because they never run JavaScript.
What you'll see
| Report | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Daily summary | One line about yesterday: requests, data served, how many came from bots, and how many people visited. |
| Requests, bandwidth, visitors | Totals for the period, compared with the period before. |
| Bot share and error rate | The share of requests from bots, and the share that failed (for example broken links). |
| Average response | How quickly your site answered, in milliseconds. |
| Humans vs bots | Requests, bandwidth or visitors over time, people in blue and bots in orange. Switch between Overall, Human and Bots at the top. |
| Client types | Browsers, bots, RSS readers, email clients and in-app browsers. |
| Top countries | Where visitors come from. |
| Activity by hour | When your site is busiest during the week. |
| Bots and crawlers | Named bots such as GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Googlebot and Bingbot, grouped as AI crawler, AI assistant, search engine, SEO tool, social preview or monitoring. |
| Most crawled by AI | Which of your pages AI companies fetch most. |
| Most crawled by search engines | Which pages Google, Bing and others fetch most. |
| Devices | Readers on desktop, mobile and tablet. |
| Feed readers | Apps such as Feedly, Inoreader and NetNewsWire that check your RSS feed, and the subscriber counts they report. |
| Image hotlinks | Other websites showing your images directly. |
| Bandwidth and requests | Everything your site served in the period. |
How it works
Every request to your site passes through CoreTech's servers. Advanced analytics reads those server records, so there is no script, plugin or tag to add, and nothing slows your pages down. It works for sites hosted on CoreTech.
Open it from Analytics → Traffic & bots in your dashboard.
AI assistants (like ChatGPT-User or Claude-User) fetch a page because a person asked about it right then. AI crawlers (like GPTBot or ClaudeBot) collect pages in bulk, for example to train models.
