Connect Vercel to Promptwatch
Overview
Sites hosted on Vercel can stream their access logs to Promptwatch with a log drain. Once connected, every production request to your deployment — functions, edge, static assets, rewrites, and redirects — is analyzed and attributed, giving you crawler analytics without touching your application code.
Promptwatch classifies each request against 25+ AI crawlers, from GPTBot and ClaudeBot training crawls to the citation fetches ChatGPT and Perplexity make when users click your links in AI answers. You'll see which routes AI crawlers visit most, how crawl activity trends over time, and the raw request log behind every number.
