Will citAEOtion slow my site down?

No. The collector records crawler requests at the server level and fires after the page is served, so it adds no front-end JavaScript and no page weight for your human visitors. Their experience is untouched.

Do I need a developer to set up citAEOtion?

How is citAEOtion different from a prompt tracker?

Published June 20, 2026

How is citAEOtion different from Google Analytics for AI?
