How AI detection works

No magic. No fingerprinting.
Just the Referer header.

When a visitor clicks your link in ChatGPT, their browser sends a Referer header. We match the hostname, tag the visit, and show it to you. That's the whole algorithm.

1Visitor clicks in AI

Someone reads an AI answer that cites your site

They click through to read more. Browser begins a standard HTTP navigation.

2Browser sends Referer

The request carries the source hostname

Standard browser behaviour. No cookies, no extra scripts, no cross-origin tricks.

GET / HTTP/2
Host:yoursite.com
Referer:https://chatgpt.com/...
User-Agent:Mozilla/5.0...
3You see the source

Tagged with the engine name, not the raw URL

Only the engine label is stored. The full Referer URL is discarded immediately.

Some AI clients strip the Referer — those visits show as "Direct" instead. We're honest about it.
