About HoneyLog

HoneyLog is a server-side analytics platform that analyzes server logs in real time to separate human visitors from AI crawlers, search engine bots and malicious scrapers. Because it reads requests at the server level rather than relying on a JavaScript tag, it records bots such as GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot that client-side tools like Google Analytics do not see.

The platform tracks each AI crawler by name and by URL over time, shows which bots comply with robots.txt rules, and highlights which content AI engines consume most. It is positioned as an analytics tool rather than a blocker, giving site owners exportable data to decide which bots to allow, support AEO and GEO work, and inform licensing discussions with AI vendors. Setup options include a one-click Cloudflare integration, a WordPress plugin, a logging solution for Nginx and Apache, and integrations with CloudFront, Akamai, Fastly and GCP.

Honeylog targets media and publishers, e-commerce and retail sites, directories and classifieds, and business websites. It states it does not use cookies or fingerprinting to identify bots and follows GDPR principles.

HoneyLog FAQ

Why doesn't Google Analytics show AI bots?
Most AI crawlers fetch HTML without running JavaScript, so client-side tags never fire. HoneyLog reads requests at the server level, so every bot hit is logged.
Does HoneyLog block AI bots?
No. It is an analytics platform that gives data to distinguish useful AI agents from predatory scrapers, leaving the blocking decision to the site owner.
How is it installed?
Via a one-click Cloudflare integration, a WordPress plugin, a dedicated logging solution for Nginx/Apache, or integrations with CloudFront, Akamai, Fastly, GCP and others.
Is HoneyLog GDPR-compliant?
Yes. It analyzes server request logs without browser cookies or fingerprinting and processes human data in line with GDPR minimization and purpose limitation principles.
