AI crawlers have moved from reading shop pages to sending actions

Help Net Security· 22 Sep

Akamai says verified AI crawlers, ChatGPT among them, have moved from simply reading pages to sending high-frequency POST requests, the kind used for logins, baskets and checkouts. In a 30-day analysis of its customers, ecommerce accounted for 44.8% of those AI bot POST transactions, and travel climbed to 30% in a single month. Akamai did not say which actions the bots perform.

  • Ask whoever runs your website to show how much AI bot traffic reaches your login, basket and checkout pages.
  • Decide which AI agents you want to let through, and block or rate-limit the rest with your hosting or security provider.
