What is KeenableBot?

KeenableBot is the crawler behind Keenable's search index. Keenable describes the index as answering queries from AI agents and citing sources with a link. Its operator page is keenable.ai/bot.

KeenableBot is the automatic crawler. Keenable-User is a separate token that fetches one page in real time when a user, or an agent acting for one, asks for it.

Cloudflare's bot directory lists the user-agent pattern KeenableBot and records no published robots.txt commitment or signature scheme, so treat requests as unverified.

Keenable's search index answers queries from AI agents and cites sources with a link. A page KeenableBot has not crawled cannot be returned there, so blocking it removes you from the agents that search through Keenable.

How to handle KeenableBot

Keep KeenableBot allowed if you want to be citable in answers from agents using Keenable. To block it:

User-agent: KeenableBot
Disallow: /

Because no verification method is published, confirm in your logs that a rule is respected.

Examples

  • A documentation site sees KeenableBot crawling its guides and keeps it allowed so agents can cite them.
  • A publisher blocks KeenableBot but leaves Keenable-User alone, so people can still have a page read for them.
