MinakiBot

MinakiBot is the web crawler run by MinakiLabs. It visits the home page of public websites, once per crawl, to learn what each site loads: other companies' scripts, trackers and ads, redirects, and whether the site uses a secure connection.

What we have found so far

68.5%of the 1,000 most-linked websites load a known tracker
92%of them run code from another company
54%load Google Tag Manager
10outside script domains on a typical top-1,000 site

From Common Crawl's September 2026 pages, 33.7 million domains. These are lower bounds: they count scripts written into the page, not ones added later. A "known tracker" is a host on the EasyPrivacy list.

We show what a site loads. We do not publicly call any site dangerous unless at least two independent sources agree, and we tell you which ones.

What MinakiBot collects

It does not log in, fill in or send forms, download files, or follow links beyond the home page. It reads robots.txt first and obeys it.

How to identify MinakiBot

How to opt out

Add this to your site's robots.txt, and MinakiBot will not visit:

User-agent: MinakiBot

Or email support@minakilabs.com with your domain, and we will add it to our do-not-crawl list.
