AI crawler rendering FAQ

What does an AI crawler see on my page?

Most AI crawlers fetch the raw HTML without running JavaScript. This simulator shows that exact view, so you see the text ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity actually read.

Do AI crawlers execute JavaScript?

Usually not. Crawlers like GPTBot and ClaudeBot read the server HTML and rarely render JavaScript, so content that only appears after JS runs is often missed.

Why is my content invisible to ChatGPT or Perplexity?

If your page is client-side rendered, the raw HTML can be nearly empty. AI crawlers then see little or no content and cannot cite you. The simulator flags this.

How do I make JavaScript content visible to AI crawlers?

Use server-side rendering or static generation so your main content is in the initial HTML. Frameworks like Next.js, Nuxt and Astro can pre-render pages for crawlers and AI.

Does client-side rendering hurt AI visibility?

Yes. Pages that rely on client-side rendering often serve empty HTML to non-rendering crawlers, lowering your chances of being read and cited by AI engines.
