GPTBot
GPTBot is OpenAI's training crawler, distinct from OAI-SearchBot which builds the ChatGPT search index.
Why it matters
Blocking GPTBot does not remove a site from ChatGPT's search results, because that index is fetched by a different agent.
How it is measured
Fetch robots.txt and confirm GPTBot and OAI-SearchBot have separate, intentional rules.
