How this service works
Fetch and parse robots.txt (+ llms.txt if present) into structured JSON, including which AI crawlers are blocked.
Output
A structured JSON object containing parsed robots.txt directives (user-agent rules, allow/disallow paths, crawl delays, sitemaps), a list of which AI crawlers are explicitly blocked or permitted, and the parsed contents of llms.txt if the site has one.
Example use cases
Audit AI crawler access before scraping
“Before I start scraping nytimes.com, can you check their robots.txt and tell me whether AI bots like GPTBot or Common Crawl are blocked?”
Check if site has llms.txt policy
“Does anthropic.com have an llms.txt file, and what does their robots.txt say about AI agent access?”
Competitor crawl policy comparison
“Pull and parse the robots.txt for shopify.com and give me a structured breakdown of which bots are allowed, which are blocked, and what crawl delays are set.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://toolvend.dev/parse/robotsWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a clean, structured JSON representation of a site's crawl policy rather than raw text — especially when you care specifically about AI crawler permissions or want to check for an llms.txt file. Ideal for pre-scraping policy audits, SEO tooling, and AI agent compliance checks. Prefer this over manually fetching robots.txt when you need parsed, machine-readable output.
Side effects
- Site has no robots.txt — returns empty or default-allow result
- URL is unreachable or returns non-2xx — network/HTTP error
- Malformed robots.txt that cannot be fully parsed
- Private or firewalled domain inaccessible from parser
- Rate limiting or timeout on slow-responding servers
