SeekportBot was originally the crawler of the German Seekport search engine. Since its acquisition by Sistrix in 2020 it has been used primarily for the Sistrix index database — the historical Seekport search engine itself is no longer actively marketed.
If you see SeekportBot in your logs, the traffic effectively originates from the Sistrix ecosystem. For on-site analysis Sistrix uses the separate Optimizer bot.
Search engine crawlers index publicly available content for their results. They typically fetch /robots.txt first and respect crawl-delay and Disallow rules. High crawl frequency usually correlates with good visibility in those search results.
BotScope maps SeekportBot requests onto your session timeline — you spot bursts, can filter them per path, and compare against other bots in the same category.
