Visibility in Claude. The assistant professionals research with.
Claude searches the web, cites every source it uses and is a favourite of people doing serious research — the buyers who write the shortlist. Outbloom shows you whether Claude finds you, cites you and recommends you.
How it works
How Claude finds and cites sources
01
Three separate crawlers
Anthropic runs ClaudeBot (training), Claude-SearchBot (search indexing) and Claude-User (live fetches). Blocking the search and user agents can reduce your visibility; opting out of training is a separate choice.
02
A web-search backend
Anthropic lists Brave Search among its web-search subprocessors, so being well indexed beyond Google helps Claude find you.
03
Short, quotable passages
Claude's citations quote short excerpts. Self-contained sentences that state a fact clearly are the ones that get lifted.

FAQ
Claude visibility, answered
How do I appear in Claude's answers?+
Allow Claude-SearchBot and Claude-User to reach your site, make sure you're indexed by the search providers AI assistants use, and publish clear, quotable pages. Outbloom tracks the prompts where Claude names you and where it names someone else.
Does blocking ClaudeBot hide me from Claude search?+
Not by itself. ClaudeBot is Anthropic's training crawler; search visibility depends on Claude-SearchBot and Claude-User, which you control separately.
