# AI Bot Traffic Tracking

> Track AI crawlers and bots visiting your website — see which AI engines are reading your content, how often, and from where.

## 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.

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**.

<Tip>
  Your Organisation ID looks like a UUID: `550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000`
