User-initiated AI bots are triggered when a real human asks the AI assistant a question and the system fetches your page live to generate the answer. Each hit is a signal: your content is right now being used in an AI answer.
BotScope aggregates every Grok-DeepSearch request in your session: which URLs it prefers, how many 4xx/5xx responses it gets, whether it crawls from one or many IPs, and what time window it's particularly active in.
