Should you block NovaAct?
There is little to gain. Amazon does not document NovaAct, so a rule naming it controls none of its documented crawlers. Write rules for Amzn-SearchBot, Amzn-User, Amazonbot and bedrockbot instead.
| Amazon bot | Job | If you block it |
|---|---|---|
| Amzn-SearchBot | Search | Allowing it makes your content eligible to appear in Amazon search experiences such as Alexa. Amazon says it does not crawl content for generative AI model training. |
| Amzn-User | User fetch | Blocking it can stop Amazon assistants from reading your page when a customer asks about it directly. |
| NovaActThis page | User fetch | A hit can indicate agentic navigation on behalf of a user rather than crawler indexing. |
| Amazonbot | Other | Blocking it limits Amazon’s general product-improvement and potential AI training crawl path. Amazon now uses separate Amzn-SearchBot and Amzn-User agents for search and live user requests. |
| bedrockbot | Other | A hit usually means your URL was selected for a Bedrock application data source, not a broad Amazon crawl. |
About robots.txtAmazon has not documented whether NovaAct follows robots.txt, so a rule is a request, not a guarantee.
User-agent: NovaAct
Disallow: /Asks NovaAct not to crawl any page. Other Amazon bots are unaffected. Add it to the robots.txt file at the root of your site, above any wider rules.
Allowing NovaAct only creates the possibility of retrieval. To find out whether your pages are selected, measure which answer engines actually cite your pages using a stable query set.

Check the source
Amazon publishes no IP ranges, reverse DNS or signatures for NovaAct 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.
