The web isn't only for humans AI agents are your new users

Google Analytics tracks people. Hotjar tracks behavior. Nothing in your stack tells you how agents see you, until now.

Discovery

The traffic that doesn’t show up in GA

Google Analytics filters most of it out. Arrivl captures every agent visit and breaks it down by who’s visiting.

Attribution

The customers AI sent you

When AI sends a human your way, we label the source so you learn which AIs actually convert for you.

Behavior

Every AI behaves differently, see how

Some agents send users your way. Others crawl you for training data. Others read live to answer a question. Arrivl shows you which is which.

Readiness

Make every page ready for AI

We scan every page and tell you how to make it ready for the AI reading it. Most fixes ship in an afternoon.

The full picture of how AI uses your site

From the moment an agent arrives to the moment a human clicks through from its answer.

Identification

Real-time agent fingerprinting

Some agents identify themselves. Others use real browsers and try to look human. Arrivl catches both.

Crawl map

Page-level clarity

See which pages every agent reads, how often, and which ones they’re skipping.

Attribution

When AI sends you a customer

See which human visitors landed on your site after an AI tool recommended you.

Alerts

Notified when something changes

Get pinged when a new agent hits your site, when traffic spikes, or when a page stops getting crawled.

Readiness

Built to be parsed

Each page graded for how well AI parses it. Every weak score ships with a fix.

Install

Three ways to install

AI install, manual snippet, or send the pre-written brief to your dev. Live in five minutes.

Built for the people who want data before they want a demo

Volume we handle, agents we know, checks we run.

M+AI agent events / month

Volume

Real traffic, already flowing

Real volume from real customer sites. No JavaScript blockers, no client-side gaps, no estimation.

AI agents in our registry

Coverage

Every agent that matters, named

OpenAI alone runs several agents with different behaviors. Arrivl tracks all 63 individually so you can see who’s reading what.

check points per audit

Depth

A readiness check with a fix list

Seven categories of signal that change how agents read your site. Each one inspected, scored, and paired with a recommended fix.

Frequently asked questions

Still unclear? Write to [email protected].

01Why should I care about AI traffic at all?+

AI agents are how more people discover products every day. When someone asks ChatGPT or Claude for a recommendation, those tools visit websites to decide what to say. If you can't see them, you have no idea how your site shows up in the answers your future customers are getting.

02How does Arrivl detect AI agents?+

Arrivl identifies agents by their user agent strings, IP ranges, and request patterns. Major AI companies publish official identifiers for their bots, and we maintain an updated list as new ones launch. For agentic browsers like Claude for Chrome and ChatGPT Atlas, we use behavioral signals to separate them from humans.

03How accurate is the data?+

For agents with official identifiers, detection is close to 100%. For newer or less transparent agents, we'd rather flag traffic as "unidentified AI" than mislabel it. You'll always know what we're confident about and what we're still classifying.

04How long does it take to set up?+

A few minutes. Add one line of code to your site and data starts flowing immediately.

05How much does Arrivl cost?+

Arrivl is free during beta. Sign up now and you'll get full access while we build the product with early users.

06Does Arrivl track my human visitors?+

No. Arrivl only tracks AI agents, while your existing tools like GA and Amplitude handle human traffic. The two work side by side.
