Can AI assistants read dspace.org?
Measured on 2026-09-19 by asking the site 9 times — once as a browser, once as each of the 8 crawlers that feed ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Meta AI, Apple Intelligence and Doubao — and comparing what came back. The AI-training opt-out tokens that never crawl are read from robots.txt instead.
A85 / 100
4 of 8 crawlers can read this page.
More readable than 72% of the 47,805 sites measured so far.

Cloudflare answers for this domain. Where a crawler above is refused while robots.txt allows it, the rule is applied by that edge, not written by the site — see how often each edge does this.
What to change, in order
- Let in the 1 crawler your own robots.txt already allows+1 crawlerPerplexityBot is turned away before reading the page (served a bot challenge instead of the page), while robots.txt permits it — so this block is not written in your site. Cloudflare answers for this domain. Cloudflare applies AI-crawler blocking at the edge, independently of robots.txt (Security → Bots, plus the managed robots.txt feature). https://developers.cloudflare.com/bots/concepts/bot/ Fixing it takes this domain from 4 to 5 of 8 crawlers.
- Publish llms.txtllms.txt is missing, so an assistant has to discover the site by following links. llms.txt is the emerging convention for telling an assistant which pages actually matter.
- 3 crawlers are named and refused in robots.txt — a deliberate choiceClaudeBot, Amazonbot, Bytespider are blocked by a rule that names them. Nothing to fix here: this page records what is true, not what should be. It is listed so the deliberate part of the block is not confused with the accidental part above.

Method. 9 live HTTP requests (one per crawler, one as a browser) plus robots.txt, llms.txt, sitemap.xml and security.txt, 12-second timeout each,
from a single vantage point. Blocking AI crawlers is a legitimate choice, not a failure: this page records what is true, not what should be.
Domain comes from a shop-platform seed (Shopify/WooCommerce/Magento/BigCommerce/Shopline fingerprint or JSON-LD price), not the Tranco traffic ranking. One page per domain — the homepage — is audited.
