Convesio has launched new AI bot-control functionality powered by Cloudflare, providing customers with straightforward tools to manage how automated crawlers interact with their WordPress and WooCommerce sites. The integration leverages recently introduced Cloudflare capabilities and brings them directly into the Convesio platform without requiring technical configuration or API work from users. Cloudflare has been rolling out new options for identifying and managing AI-driven bots and crawlers, and Convesio's implementation makes these controls immediately available to its customer base.
The feature offers a practical approach to limiting unwanted content consumption, reducing unnecessary traffic, and protecting site performance from automated scanning activities. Automated AI crawlers are increasingly scanning websites to collect content for training models or generating responses. While this traffic doesn't always pose security threats, many site owners prefer to limit or completely prevent AI bots from accessing their content. Cloudflare recently introduced a new detection signal that classifies certain automated crawlers as AI bots, and Convesio's integration provides customers with a simple way to respond to this emerging category of web traffic.
With this update, Convesio customers can easily block all AI-classified bots using Cloudflare's detection criteria or allow them, with the latter being the default setting. The system requires no configuration steps, rules, or custom logic implementation. Users simply toggle a single setting within the Convesio platform, enabling them to adopt Cloudflare's newest bot-control capability without needing to manage Cloudflare directly through their account at https://www.convesio.com.
This release represents part of a broader initiative to provide Convesio customers with easier access to Cloudflare Enterprise tools that typically require custom engineering or advanced configuration. Tom Fanelli, Founder & CEO of Convesio, explained that while Cloudflare continues to introduce beneficial features for site owners, many remain difficult to implement without technical expertise. The company aims to bridge this gap, with the AI bot controls being the first of several Cloudflare-powered capabilities planned for rollout.
Future updates will focus on exposing more Cloudflare Enterprise functionality directly within the Convesio dashboard, including advanced caching rules, performance controls, and security features. Convesio's hosting platform is specifically designed for performance and reliability at scale, particularly serving WooCommerce stores and content-driven businesses. The new AI bot-control tooling complements existing features like auto-scaling containers and managed security, helping customers maintain optimal performance even as automated traffic volumes increase.
The Cloudflare-based bot controls began rolling out to customers starting November 24, 2025, with additional Cloudflare Enterprise integrations scheduled to follow throughout 2026. The platform's containerized auto-scaling, integrated performance tooling, and managed security features position it as a solution for digital businesses requiring stability and scalability under varying traffic loads.
