How It Works

Siftly intercepts AI bot requests at the edge of your infrastructure — before they even reach your origin server — and logs them for analysis.
Your Website / CDN

AI bots are identified by User-Agent strings. The integration is fire-and-forget — it never adds latency to real user page loads.

Prerequisites

Before setting up any integration you need your Organisation ID. Find it in the Siftly dashboard under Settings → Organisation.
Your Organisation ID looks like a UUID: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000
