Cloudflare launched a new analytics dashboard to help website owners monitor traffic from personal AI agents. The update introduces a ‘Personal Assistants’ category to the Security Analytics suite, alongside existing Verified Bot and Human classifications. This feature allows administrators to see which agents are visiting their sites and how much traffic they generate.
The new tools provide detailed insights into agent behaviour, including request volumes and specific paths taken through a site. Site owners can filter this data to examine status codes and network origins. Cloudflare also renamed ‘AI Crawler and Agent access policies’ to ‘Agents policy’ to reflect the broader scope of the feature. Account Abuse Protection now identifies the specific user behind a personal agent for fraud detection.
Site owners can now apply granular access controls to manage these agents, such as blocking specific bots or allowing access only on pages without advertisements. This level of visibility helps administrators understand how AI tools interact with their content and implement precise security measures. Developers and site operators can finally get a clear picture of how personal assistants are consuming their resources.
