EdgeShaping Lite logs AI bot visits at the PHP layer instead — no JS dependency — so you can see which bots read which pages, and when. - Dictionary-based AI bot detection - Dashboard with bot frequency ranking + most-visited pages - Full access log, CSV export - AHQG Matrix: cross AI visits with human search clicks (GSC) to spot pages AI loves that humans haven't found yet
