AISearchBot

AISearchBot is the crawler of a managed AI-search service. We index the public pages of sites that have embedded our search widget, so we can answer their visitors from the site's own content — with links to sources, in the visitor's language. The bot only visits our clients' sites and respects robots.txt.

How to identify the bot

User-Agent

AISearchBot/1.0 (+https://mvp-search-k3gecv3cwa-uc.a.run.app/bot; managed site search)

Static IP (egress)

35.223.115.47

The bot always presents this User-Agent string and comes from a single static IP address — use either to identify it reliably in your logs and protection rules.

How to allow crawling

Allow our bot to crawl in robots.txt:

User-agent: AISearchBot
Allow: /

If your site sits behind a WAF or firewall, add the bot to the exceptions — by User-Agent or by our IP:

Cloudflare: WAF → Custom rules → Skip, condition “User-Agent contains AISearchBot” (or by our IP). Turn off Bot Fight Mode / Browser Integrity Check for it.
Google Cloud Armor: an allow rule with request.headers['user-agent'].contains('AISearchBot') or by source IP (our egress IP), priority above blocking rules.
Imperva: add our User-Agent (or IP) to the Allowlist / Good Bots so the bot skips the threat filter.

How to block it

If you don't want the bot to index your site (or part of it), disallow it in robots.txt. The bot respects these rules:

User-agent: AISearchBot
Disallow: /
