Step 4: Verify

After installing, visit your website in a browser. Then check the Realtime page in your dashboard — you should see your visit appear within seconds.

Your own visits will show as "Human" since you're not a bot. To test bot detection, you can use curl:

curl -H "User-Agent: ChatGPT-User" https://yourdomain.com/

This simulates a ChatGPT bot visit and should appear in your Realtime dashboard immediately.
