Canva — what a crawler receives from canva.com

Website measurement, not a product review. This page records what machine clients received from canva.com. It does not evaluate Canva software, features, pricing or support.

Answer engines can technically reach this site, but get little they can use.

AI visibility 65/100, measured 2026-09-18 03:36 UTC from outside its network, as twelve named crawler identities plus an unnamed client and two mobile-browser controls. An engine can technically reach this site and would struggle to get anything quotable out of it.

The three stages, in the order an engine hits a site

Each stage gates the next. An engine that cannot reach a page never reads it; one that cannot read it never quotes it. That is why reach is a ceiling and not just a weight.

Stage 1 · 40% of the score

Reach

Can a named answer-engine crawler get your pages at all?

At least one answer engine was refused, challenged or served less than a browser.

Stage 2 · 30% of the score

Read

Once it has the bytes, can it find the words?

The content is buried in markup, or the files that guide a crawler are missing.

Stage 3 · 30% of the score

Quote

Is there a specific fact it can state and attribute?

Not measured on this scan; left out rather than counted as zero.

The stage to fix first is read, because the three run in order.

What to fix

6 findings on this site, 1 of them scored serious. The top one is below in full, free. Which the other 5 are, what we saw, and the bytes behind each one are what a licence buys — or we implement the whole list for you.

What we saw

4 named User-agent groups (18 agents) do not repeat 106 of the Disallow rules the `*` group carries. A crawler obeys only its own most-specific group and ignores `*` entirely, so those rules do not apply to any of the named agents (some declare their own, different rules). Worst group: `adsbot-google, facebookexternalhit, linkedinbot, perplexitybot, perplexity-user` bypasses /media/*, /template/*, /_ok, /_blank, *v=, *utm_expid=, *source=, *utm_source=, *utm_campaign=, *utm_content=, *__hstc=, *reviews_page=, *gclid=, *magazineName=, *_ga=, *like=, *sp_url=, *fbclid=, *country=, *company_size=. This includes a SEARCH crawler (gptbot, claudebot, ccbot, applebot-extended, anthropic-ai, claude-web) — the bypassed paths are being crawled and can enter the index. /robots.txt

Why it matters

A crawler reads only the User-agent group that matches it best and ignores every other group, including `*`. Naming an agent and giving it only `Allow: /` therefore deletes all of your `*` Disallow rules for that agent. The file still parses and the agent still reaches your homepage, so this is invisible on inspection — but the paths you meant to keep out of search are open, and search engines will crawl and may index them.

How to fix it

Every User-agent group that names a crawler must repeat the Disallow rules you want applied. A named group with no rules means 'allow everything' for that crawler.

Setting: a setting on the server, CDN, DNS or a plugin — no code and no writing

Is this your company?

This listing came from a fetch, not a submission, so nobody was asked. If canva.com is yours you can prove it in a minute and for nothing — a DNS TXT record or one meta tag on the home page, both checkable by anyone.

Claiming marks you as the verified owner and lets you correct the category and the company name. It moves no score, no rank and no position.

If a reading here is wrong, it is our instrument that is wrong, and we want to know. Tell us what is wrong and the site is re-measured; the result is published as measured. Nothing about a listing, a payment or a request changes a number.
