Hive's AI image search index.
Almost never block
ImagesiftBot builds and refreshes the index behind Hive's AI answers. Blocking it is the most expensive mistake in AI SEO: you disappear from Hive citations while your training decision stays completely separate.
If you need to protect specific sections (pricing, docs), use path-scoped rules instead of a blanket Disallow: /.
