Can AI assistants read la-croix.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 #14,757.
B78 / 100

AWS CloudFront answers for this domain. Where a crawler above is
refused while robots.txt allows it, the rule is applied by that edge, not written by the site — see
how often each edge does this.
What to change, in order
- Let in the 1 crawler your own robots.txt already allows+1 crawler
GPTBot is turned away before reading the page (served a bot challenge instead of the page), while robots.txt permits it — so this block is not written in your site. AWS CloudFront answers for this domain. AWS WAF Bot Control has an AI-crawler category that CloudFront enforces ahead of your origin. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/waf-bot-control.html Fixing it takes this domain from 3 to 4 of 4 crawlers.
- Publish llms.txt
llms.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.
- Mark the content with <main>
The content-reachability check scores 12/100: with no <main> or <article> landmark, or with most of the page outside it, an assistant reads the navigation and the footer at the same cost as the text it came for.
