Is Agent Analytics free?
Is Agent Analytics free?
Yes. Agent Analytics is free for every user, alongside
Traffic Analytics.
What does Agent Analytics measure?
What does Agent Analytics measure?
Every AI agent that touches your site (crawlers, scrapers, search-index bots,
live-fetch agents, and agentic-commerce bots), whether each one is real or
spoofed, what it does once it arrives, and the humans who click through from
AI answers (LLM referrals).
How is this different from Google Analytics?
How is this different from Google Analytics?
A JavaScript tag only fires when a real browser runs your page. Most AI
crawlers never run JavaScript, so tag-based tools miss them almost entirely.
Agent Analytics measures requests at the edge, so it counts the crawl whether
or not any code runs. For your human traffic, use
Traffic Analytics.
Do I need to change my site's code?
Do I need to change my site's code?
Usually not. Log-based integrations (CloudFront, Google Cloud, Fastly,
Akamai, Vercel/Netlify Log Drains) read logs your platform already produces.
Edge integrations (Cloudflare Worker, Vercel/Netlify edge functions) add one
file or one paste. Shopify needs no theme code at all.
Will this slow down my site?
Will this slow down my site?
No. Integrations report events in the background and pass requests through
untouched. Your visitors see the same response as before.
Does Rankly block bots?
Does Rankly block bots?
No. Rankly measures agents; it does not block them. If you use a tool like
Cloudflare AI Crawl Control, set it to allow so crawlers still reach your
site and Rankly can count them.
Can I connect more than one platform?
Can I connect more than one platform?
Yes. You can install several integrations across different domains or parts
of your stack. They all report into the same account.
How fresh is the data?
How fresh is the data?
Edge integrations report in near real time. Log-based integrations have a
short delay (usually under a minute) because the platform batches logs.
What is the ingest token, and is it safe to put in a script?
What is the ingest token, and is it safe to put in a script?
It is the key that ties events to your account. It can only send events, not
read your dashboard or change settings. It does end up in client-deployed
edge scripts, which is expected. If it ever leaks, rotate it from Settings
and reinstall your integrations.
Can I load historical data?
Can I load historical data?
Yes. Use the batch endpoint
POST /ingest/_batch with up to 5,000 events per
request. See the Ingest API reference.Which integration should I pick if I have a choice?
Which integration should I pick if I have a choice?
Prefer one that captures the true client IP at the edge (Cloudflare Worker,
Fastly, Akamai, or an edge function), because it makes identity verification
work without any origin changes.
