Agent Type

Expected Behavior

Undocumented AI agents are operated by AI companies but lack official documentation explaining their purpose or behavior. They may be used for training data collection, search indexing, or experimental features not yet publicly announced. Some undocumented agents may also be deprecated or no longer actively used by their operators. Without documentation, it's unclear whether they respect robots.txt, how frequently they crawl, what data they prioritize, or how collected content is used.

⚠️ Manual Robots.txt Editing Is Not Scalable

New agents are created every day. We recommend setting up Dark Visitors Automatic Robots.txt if you want to block all agents of this type.
