Vercel Firewall's AI Bots managed ruleset allows users to log or block requests from AI crawlers and AI assistants separately.
The configuration entry for the AI Bots ruleset is located in the Bot Management area under the Security > Firewall > Rules page of a Vercel project.
In Vercel Firewall, `--action deny` directly rejects the request and returns an error response, while `--action log` lets the request through but logs the event.
Bot Management is a general capability within firewall products: the platform maintains a list of known bot signatures, classifies requests based on signals such as User-Agent, IP ranges, and behavioral characteristics, and then applies actions such as allow, log, or block.
In practice, it is common to first observe with log for a period of time, assess the risk of misclassification and the share of traffic, and then decide whether to tighten to deny.
