Log Analyzer parses access logs to identify GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended and 200+ other crawlers — then shows you which pages AI actually fetches, which it ignores, and which to block.
Powered by the open 3LA AI Bot Database.
Real-time user-agent matching against the 3LA Bot Database. Know whether a request is GPTBot, ClaudeBot, a beneficial scraper, or a hostile content thief.
See exactly which pages AI bots crawl most. Find your "AI-favoured" URLs and the orphans that get ignored — so you know what to publish more of.
Live stream of incoming bot traffic plus complete archive. Filter by bot, path, date range — export everything as CSV.
High-frequency scraping, suspicious paths, undisclosed bots — flagged automatically with severity and recommended robots.txt entries.
Upload Apache / Nginx / Cloudflare logs, or stream live via our log forwarder. All standard formats supported.
Every request is matched against the 3LA Bot Database. Bots are categorised by purpose, threat level and citation behaviour.
Top bots, top crawled paths, request rate over time, threat events — all visible in one real-time view with 90-day history.
One-click export of an AI-aware robots.txt that welcomes citation bots and blocks the scrapers you actually want out.
Apache Combined, Nginx default and custom, Cloudflare Enterprise Logs, and AWS CloudFront JSON. Bring what you have — we auto-detect the format on upload.
Log Analyzer is the raw log-parsing engine — it tells you every crawler that touched the site. Bot Tracker layers real-time classification, citation-chain linking and Slack alerts on top. Many teams use both: Log Analyzer for historical reporting, Bot Tracker for live decisions.
You control retention. Default is 90 days of parsed request records in your workspace. Raw log files are deleted after parsing unless you enable extended retention.
Yes. The 3LA Log Forwarder is a lightweight daemon that streams parsed events to your workspace in real time. Works on Apache, Nginx and Cloudflare Workers.
No. Log Analyzer strips IP addresses and query strings at parse time by default. You never send us user-identifying data unless you explicitly enable it.
3LA was forged in the agency trenches and is now used by brands and agencies across the Nordics to track what AI says about them.
The Three-Layer Approach (3LA) is a groundbreaking service! In the report, you don't just learn what is wrong with your site, but also what you should do to improve it – specifically tailored to you.

I highly recommend the 3LA platform! It only took a short time from when I joined the waiting list until I was approved and could receive three free analyses. My first impression was brilliant – I found myself saying 'Wow!' and 'You guys have to see this!' The platform provides genuinely valuable insight. A major plus is that the report is clear and accessible from anywhere, and the fact that it can be used on both Shopify and WordPress is truly seamless.

I was lucky enough to test 3LA in the beta version and found it to be a very useful and user-friendly tool – regardless of technical expertise. The analysis you receive provides concrete, actionable suggestions for website improvements and makes it easy to take steps that actually yield results. Additionally, the tool is cost-effective, both in terms of licensing and time spent. Highly recommended! )

The Three-Layer Approach finally separates AI visibility from generic SEO advice. Sharp, somewhat brutal and opinionated, but practically and actually actionable.

A critical gap has emerged between the information we publish and how modern systems actually retrieve it. Our industry colleague, Nickolass at Nettpilot, has addressed this gap by developing The Three-Layer Approach™ (3LA). This is not just another "trend," but a necessary upgrade of digital infrastructure for anyone who wishes to remain relevant in an ecosystem now governed by machine understanding.

More than 2 billion people encounter AI‑generated answers every month – across chatbots, search, and agents.
ChatGPT alone has reached about 1 billion monthly active users in 2026, with around 900 million weekly users, while other chatbots like Gemini and Claude are growing triple‑digits year over year. (Source: https://www.omnibound.ai/blog/chatgpt-user-statistics)
Google’s AI Overviews already appear in roughly 15–25% of searches, depending on study and market, and now reach around 2–2.5 billion people per month across 200+ countries and 40 languages.
Analyst syntheses of 2025–26 surveys suggest that roughly 20–40% of knowledge workers now use AI assistants or task‑specific agents at least weekly in their workflows
The Zero‑Click AI Economy ChatGPT now has around 1 billion monthly users, Google’s Gemini app reaches hundreds of millions, and AI Overviews surface answers directly in search for billions of people every month.

LLMs hallucinate about companies, prices, key people and mandates - and it's costing NGOs, universities, research bodies, financial institutions, political actors and agencies real leads and real trust. Here's the background of the Entity Accuracy Engine, and exactly who I built it for.
Classical AI SEO tools grade your content with an LLM. The Three-Layer Approach measures - deterministically - whether AI can find, trust and cite you. Here's the honest comparison. This article was first published on nettpilot.com
ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini do not share a user base. They share a category name. A 2026 study found only ~11% of domains cited by ChatGPT are also cited by Perplexity. Here is the field guide to a platform-segmented GEO strategy.
