NICTTraining crawler

ICC-Crawler

ICC-Crawler is an NICT crawler for data used in artificial intelligence technologies and third-party research/commercial uses. This record has no current NICT source, so treat a matching request as unverified.

Training only. It does not decide whether you appear in answers.

Should you block ICC-Crawler?

You can, but it may not listen. NICT has not documented ICC-Crawler, so treat any rule as a request. Blocking it limits NICT crawler collection from your site for AI and research datasets.

robots.txt
User-agent: ICC-Crawler
Disallow: /

Asks ICC-Crawler not to crawl any page. Add it to the robots.txt file at the root of your site, above any wider rules.

Ignored robots.txt?

ICC-Crawler collects pages for model training. Training inclusion is not the same as being cited, so measure where AI answers actually cite your site before drawing conclusions from crawl logs.

Spot it in your logs.

Match the name, then check where the request came from. Anyone can copy a user-agent.

This string comes from a public crawler registry or observed naming, not current operator documentation.

  1. 1

    Match the name

    Search your server or CDN log for ICC-Crawler, case-insensitive. A match is a clue, not proof.

  2. 2

    Check the source

    NICT publishes no IP ranges, reverse DNS or signatures for ICC-Crawler in the sources here, so it cannot be verified. Treat matches as unconfirmed.

Serve the content in HTML

The cited operator material does not verify JavaScript rendering. Serve useful HTML before client-side JavaScript where possible.
