Kagi Bot

recommended: allow
Operated by Kagi search engine

Kagi Bot is the web crawler for the Kagi search engine. It crawls the web to build its own search index, which supports its ad-free search product.

How to identify it

User-agent contains any of:

  • Kagibot/

robots.txt

Well-behaved crawlers honor robots.txt. To control Kagi Bot:

Allow full access

User-agent: Kagibot/
Allow: /

Block entirely

User-agent: Kagibot/
Disallow: /

Grey-area scrapers ignore robots.txt. Botscope enforces your policy at the edge or origin regardless — see how →

See Kagi Bot on your own site

Botscope shows every bot and AI agent hitting your site — and lets you allow, challenge, or block each one. Observe first, enforce when you're ready.
