What is Artsdata Crawler?

Artsdata Crawler is Culture Creates's content aggregator. Web crawler that collects publicly available LOD for arts and culture in Canada.

Artsdata Crawler collects and redistributes content from across the web, so pages it can reach may be surfaced to audiences well beyond your own site. Aggregated copies also become part of the corpus AI systems draw on, which makes it worth knowing what Artsdata Crawler takes and how often.

Like any automated client, Artsdata Crawler consumes crawl budget and appears in your server and CDN logs. Reviewing those logs alongside your robots.txt rules helps you keep automated traffic deliberate and easy to reason about.

Want to see every AI bot hitting your site? Promptwatch turns your server and CDN logs into a live view of AI crawler and agent traffic, so you can watch ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and others crawl your pages and connect those visits to real citations and revenue.

How to handle Artsdata Crawler

Allow Artsdata Crawler if you want your content distributed through the feeds and apps it supplies. Disallow it if you would rather people reach that content only on your own site.

To control Artsdata Crawler, add a rule for its user agent to your robots.txt:

User-agent: artsdata-crawler
Disallow: /

Artsdata Crawler generally honors robots.txt directives.

Artsdata Crawler is a Cloudflare signed agent: it signs requests with Web Bot Auth and publishes its keys at https://kg.artsdata.ca/.well-known/http-message-signatures-directory, so you can tell genuine traffic from anything spoofing its user agent.

Examples

  • A publisher checks how often Artsdata Crawler pulls new articles and whether the aggregated version links back to the original.
  • An editor keeps Artsdata Crawler allowed so new posts reach the readers of the apps it supplies.
