When kanji-rankwithme-bot crawls your website it performs a structured extraction pass — reading your existing schema.org markup, extracting entity signals from your public-facing content, scoring your schema vocabulary utilization against the full schema.org specification for your business type, and generating a machine-readable entity profile.
That profile is published at rankwithme.ai/directory/yourbusiness as a free, publicly indexed, neutral third-party record of what your business is. We notify you when your profile goes live. The profile is yours to reference, share, and build on.
We built kanji-rankwithme-bot to be a good actor on the web. These are hard rules — not guidelines, not aspirations. Every crawl kanji runs operates under these constraints without exception.

Anyone can set their user agent string to kanji-rankwithme-bot. The way to verify a crawl request is actually from us — and not from someone spoofing our identity — is reverse DNS lookup.

host [IP_ADDRESS]. On Windows: nslookup [IP_ADDRESS].Step 3. A legitimate kanji-rankwithme-bot request will return a hostname resolving to
rankwithme.ai. If the reverse DNS does not resolve to rankwithme.ai — the request is not from us and you should block that IP.Questions about verification? Email
[email protected] with the IP address and we will confirm whether it belongs to our infrastructure.
# Linux / Mac — reverse DNS lookup host 123.456.789.000 # Expected output contains: rankwithme.ai # Windows — reverse DNS lookup nslookup 123.456.789.000 # Expected output contains: rankwithme.ai
Allowing kanji-rankwithme-bot is not just permitting a crawler. It is opting your business into a free machine-readable presence that benefits your AI visibility, your search discoverability, and your long-term authority in the systems increasingly deciding which businesses get found.
When kanji crawls your site and publishes your entity profile, you receive a neutral third-party indexed page about your business on a live federated domain. That page carries our domain authority. It carries our semantic edges to government regulatory entities, pillar satellite domains, and peer businesses. It gets submitted to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools via sitemap. It is permanently indexed and permanently crawlable by every AI system and search engine that visits rankwithme.ai.
You give Kanji a crawl. Kanji gives your business a machine-readable presence it did not have before. That is the exchange. That is why we built this. That is why we keep it free.
