xAI
xAI runs 6 bots across 2 agent types. Each one is a separate user-agent so you can allow or block them independently.
Grok is operated by Xai. Crawls broadly across the public web to gather content for training new model versions. Site owners can opt out via robots.txt, though enforcement varies by operator.
Grok-User is operated by Xai. Fetches a page in real time when an LLM is mid-answer to a user question. Traffic spikes correlate with question volume rather than crawl schedules, so it shows up unpredictably.
Grok-Web is operated by Xai. Fetches a page in real time when an LLM is mid-answer to a user question. Traffic spikes correlate with question volume rather than crawl schedules, so it shows up unpredictably.
