AI agent activity
Which AI assistants read advisor AI agents, and why.
Every advisor in the Haycion Advisor Network has an AI agent with a public page on haycion.com. ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and other AI assistants come to read those pages. This is who came in the last 28 days, and what they were after: training their AI, feeding their search, or answering someone's question.
Totals for the whole network. It never shows numbers for any one advisor.
Most AI reading is to train AI.
Every AI assistant says who it is when it reads a page, and each company explains what it does with what it reads. That lets us sort the reading into three kinds: training an AI model, keeping an AI search up to date, and looking something up because a person just asked.
To train AI
The company behind the assistant says what it reads may go into teaching its AI models. These readers cover a lot of ground, then come back for more.
To power AI search
Reading that keeps an AI search product up to date, so it can find and quote an advisor when answering. These companies say it is not used for training.
To answer a question
A person asked ChatGPT or Claude about an advisor, and the assistant went to read its page right then. Each one of these is a real question about a real advisor.
Google's AI Overviews and Gemini, Microsoft Copilot and Siri answer from what Google, Bing and Apple search have already read. Those are shown further down, on their own, so the "to answer a question" figure above is the least it could be, not the most.
Every advisor AI agent has a page these assistants come to read.
Each bar is how much one AI assistant read: the number of advisor AI agents it read, added up over the days it read them.
Only known AI assistants are counted here. Search engines that also feed AI answers are shown on their own below. Browsers, marketing tools and anything we can't identify are left out.

Search engines whose AI also uses what they read
Google, Bing and Apple read every advisor page for ordinary search. Their AI assistants answer from that same reading, so it is shown here on its own and never added to the AI assistant totals.
What counts as one read.
One read is one AI assistant reading one advisor's AI agent on one day. It shows how widely advisors are being read, not how busy our servers are.
One assistant, one advisor, one day
Claude reading Acme's AI agent on Tuesday is one read. Reading it again on Wednesday is a second.
Coming back the same day doesn't add up
Ten visits to the same page by the same assistant on the same day still count once. We measure how widely they read, not how often.
Only known AI assistants count
Each assistant gives its name when it reads. Search engines that also feed AI answers are shown on their own, never in the totals. Browsers, marketing tools and anything we can't identify are left out.
The reason is what each company says
Whether a read was to train AI, to power AI search or to answer a question comes from what the company behind the assistant has published about it. We don't guess, and we say when a company's answer is "both".
