# Perplexity's crawlers in Best LLM Visibility Tracker

**Answer in brief:** Read before you block bots, since PerplexityBot decides Perplexity search results.

The crawler rules for Perplexity. PerplexityBot surfaces and links websites in Perplexity's search results and is not used to crawl content for AI foundation models. Perplexity recommends allowing it.[1]

Perplexity-User fetches pages when a user asks, and is not used for web crawling or for training.[1]
