About our bot
If you saw this user-agent in your logs, someone ran a business on your domain through EchoPilot. Here is exactly what it did.
EchoRankBot/1.0 (+https://echorank360.com/bot)
What it fetches. /robots.txt, the home page, /sitemap.xml, /llms.txt, a deliberately missing page (to see the 404), the home page's stylesheets, and then up to 60 HTML pages on the same registrable domain, breadth-first from the home page.
Limits, per audit. 60 crawled pages, 2 MB per response, 10 second timeout, at most one request per second to any one host, 5 redirects. It does not execute JavaScript, submit forms, or follow links or redirects to other domains.
robots.txt. Honoured for every page. Rules for EchoRankBot apply first, then *. A disallowed path makes the checks that need it "not assessable"; a robots.txt we cannot fetch does the same. We never assume permission.
Who triggers it. A person entering a domain into the free score (three starts per day per address), or a paying customer's monthly audit of their own business.
What it stores. Facts extracted per rule (titles, counts, flags, short snippets) and a log of each fetch with its outcome. Full page bodies are not kept.
To block it, add this to your robots.txt. The audit will then report the page-based rules as not assessable.
