User agent

Requests from ProRata carry a user agent like this:

ProRataInc (The ProRata Fair Use Crawler; https://prorata.ai; support@prorata.ai)

Device Detector identifies it with this pattern (a case-insensitive regular expression):

ProRata

Anyone 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 ProRata

Vireo keeps requests from ProRata out of your pageviews and visitors and counts them on its bot report under AI crawlers, so you can see how much it left out rather than wonder why your server logs show more traffic.

Because it's an AI crawler, its requests also count toward the pages AI crawlers took, which Vireo shows next to the readers AI assistants sent back. See how the AI assistants card works.

Checked by running Vireo Analytics' own bot filter over ProRata's user agents.
