Amzn-User fetches individual pages in direct response to a user action or an Amazon
application’s request — for example, retrieving up-to-date information to answer an Alexa
query. Amazon’s own documentation states this crawler is not used to train generative AI models.
Site-owner controls
Disallowing Amzn-User prevents Amazon applications from fetching this specific page on a
user’s behalf — for example, in response to an Alexa query. It does not affect Amazonbot
(Amazon’s mixed-use, possibly-training crawler) or Amzn-SearchBot (search-experience
indexing), both documented separately. See /limitations for what a robots.txt
rule can and cannot guarantee.
Related crawlers
Amazon documents Amzn-User alongside Amzn-SearchBot (search-experience crawling, also
excluded from AI training) and Amazonbot (mixed use, including possible AI training) on the
same page. CrawlPact reports these as distinct rows because they serve different purposes and
carry different training implications.
Example robots.txt configuration
To disallow Amzn-User specifically, without affecting any other crawler:
User-agent: Amzn-User
Disallow: /If no dedicated User-agent: Amzn-User group exists in a domain's robots.txt, this crawler falls back to whatever the wildcard User-agent: * group says (RFC 9309) — see robots.txt syntax basics for how group selection works.
Verified against the source above as of 2026-07-30 — see how CrawlPact verifies crawler information.
