Link preview bots are triggered when a human shares your link in a messaging app or platform. They fetch Open Graph and Twitter Card meta tags to render the preview. The IP belongs to a real user — BotScope therefore hashes it via SHA-256.

Once Instapaper shows up in your logs, BotScope lets you analyze its crawl paths, status codes, IP distribution and temporal activity — by hour, day or week.
