Hey AI, It's Me

AVS-Audit crawler

This crawler is currently paused. Requesting a score does not fetch your site, and no Website Readiness score is shown. The details below describe how it behaves when it runs.

AVS-Audit is the crawler Hey AI, It's Me uses for the Website Readiness part of an AI Visibility score. It runs only when someone requests a score for a site, and fetches that site once per run.

What it fetches

  • /robots.txt, /sitemap.xml, and /llms.txt
  • The homepage plus up to 9 more pages chosen from the sitemap
  • HTML only; bodies over 2 MB are skipped

How it behaves

  • User-Agent: AVS-Audit/1.0 (+https://heyaiitsme.com/audit-bot)
  • Honors robots.txt disallow rules for its own crawl
  • At most one request per second to a host, 30-second timeout
  • One retry with standard browser request headers if the first attempt is refused; the User-Agent never changes
  • No per-site caching between runs; nothing is fetched on a schedule

Allowing it

If your firewall or bot protection blocks the crawler, the score page shows a “we couldn't reach your site” notice instead of a Website Readiness score. To be measured, allow requests whose User-Agent contains AVS-Audit and request the score again.
