Set it up once. Sleep better forever.
Three steps. No agent, no SDK, no infra access, just scheduled audits of the signals that matter.
Add your URLs
Paste a domain, sitemap, or template pattern (like /product/[id]). One pattern protects thousands of pages.
We audit on a schedule
Every few hours we re-check robots.txt, meta robots, X-Robots-Tag, and canonicals, and snapshot every change.
Get alerted on changes
Email, Slack, or webhook the moment a scan detects a change, with a clear before/after diff.

Robots.txt
Monitors Disallow rules, crawl-delay, sitemap references, and user-agent directives across every deploy.
Six critical signals, one dashboard.
Every crawlability signal that affects your visibility, monitored continuously.
We don't crawl your entire site. That's the point.
Modern websites run on templates. Your 5,000 product pages share the same meta logic, canonicals, and robots directives. If one breaks, they all break.
Monitor one representative page per template, and protect thousands at once.
3 monitored pages → 5,000+ URLs covered
noindex leak on the product template? We catch it on the monitored page, before all 4,200 products disappear from Google.30-second scans. Every few hours.
Traditional crawlers take 10 hours and run once a day. By the time their next report lands, your pages may already be deindexed.
We check the pages that matter in seconds, so issues are caught in hours, not days.
Traditional Crawlers
RobotsGuard
Friday deploy. One line of code. 4,200 pages at risk.

"Our Google Merchant Center campaigns are blocked."
A freelance dev tweaks a client's robots.txt. Days later the client calls, panicked. Shopping ads are off. Organic listings are gone.
When you don't own the deploy pipeline, RobotsGuard is your safety net. You'll know before Google does.
