What it does
It is a dated matrix of what each AI system shows a site owner: twelve AI vendors by four questions, each cell marked yes, partial, none-found or unverified, with a source URL and the date it was read. Where a vendor shows a site owner nothing, the cell says none-found instead of staying blank.
It also carries a GA4 and Looker Studio template for the traffic that can be identified, and a labelled "suspicious direct" view for the part that cannot. The classify command splits a GA4 export, and the logs command counts AI fetchers in a server log, grouped by role: training, search-index, user-fetch, answer-fetch and ads-check. Everything runs on your machine and reads local files. It needs Node 18 or later and has no dependencies.
It does not measure your traffic, and it does not estimate how many AI visits are hidden in Direct: the suspicious-direct view is a filter, and bookmarks, email links and app links pass it too. none-found means nothing turned up in the pages read on the read date, which is not proof. The Looker Studio formula and the BigQuery SQL have not been run against a live account, and the example data is synthetic.
Disclosure: Reidify, the studio behind this, sells AEO services. This is published as data with its method, not as a pitch.
Why it exists
On 2026-09-30 the ways to see AI traffic had changed three times in eight months, and the pages that describe them disagree. Bing Webmaster Tools added an AI Performance report on 2026-02-10. GA4 added a native AI Assistant channel on 2026-05-13. Google added Generative AI reports to Search Console on 2026-06-03 and finished the worldwide rollout on 2026-08-31.
Older articles still say GA4 has no AI channel. Google's help pages give different examples for the GA4 channel: one names Claude and another lists five other assistants, and neither publishes the full list. The repo puts those facts in one place, one cell per vendor and question, each with a source and the date it was read.
