User agent
Requests from PaperLiBot carry a user agent like this:
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; PaperLiBot/2.1; http://support.paper.li/entries/20023257-what-is-paper-li)Device Detector identifies it with this pattern (a case-insensitive regular expression):
PaperLiBotAnyone can put any name in a user agent. Where the operator publishes IP ranges, checking the request's address against them is the way to confirm a visit is genuine.
How Vireo counts PaperLiBot
Vireo keeps requests from PaperLiBot out of your pageviews and visitors and counts them on its bot report under Search engines, so you can see how much it left out rather than wonder why your server logs show more traffic.
Checked by running Vireo Analytics' own bot filter over PaperLiBot's user agents.
