Can AI assistants read cnbctv18.com?
Measured on 2026-09-13 by asking the site 5 times — once as a browser, once as each of the 4 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. Tranco rank #16,983.

What each crawler got back
| Crawler | HTTP | Result | robots.txt |
|---|---|---|---|
| ClaudeBot (Claude) | 200 | allowed by the server, blocked in robots.txt | blocked |
| GPTBot (ChatGPT) | 200 | allowed by the server, blocked in robots.txt | blocked |
| OAI-SearchBot (ChatGPT Search) | 200 | allowed by the server, blocked in robots.txt | blocked |
| PerplexityBot (Perplexity) | 200 | can read it | allowed-by-star |
| Google-Extended (Gemini, AI Overviews) a robots.txt token, not a crawler: it controls how already-crawled pages may be used, and never makes a request of its own | — | opted out in robots.txt | blocked |
What to change, in order
- 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, GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot 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. 5 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.
