Who's really behind every session?

AI agents are the fastest-growing visitors on the web. They browse, log in, and complete tasks on behalf of customers or bad actors, and traditional bot detectors can’t tell them apart. Agent Detection from Resemble AI analyzes behavior and intent to classify every session as human, bot, or agent, with reasoning, so you can welcome the good agents and stop the rest. Watch the video, then run a free agent scan.

Once upon a time, every click online had a person behind it. Then came the bots, which were designed to read content or execute simple, repetitive tasks. Now, there are AI agents: AI that can execute a complex series of tasks, on behalf of a human as a personal agent, or autonomously and at scale, creating multiple website and product sessions in parallel. That means sometimes the intent is good, and sometimes it’s not.

AI agent traffic is growing fast. Today, anyone can have an agent. If the biggest names in AI have their way, everyone will. In fact, Meta’s AI agent, Muse, saw 5 million downloads in under a month. It took ChatGPT nearly two months to hit that number.

AI agents are a new kind of visitor, and bot detectors weren’t built for them. Bot detectors read metadata like IP address and VPN, which can’t tell a person from an agent in a real browser. Their only verdict is human or not, and browser-based agents easily slip past because they perform multiple actions towards a singular goal, not one action on repeat. Even when an agent gets flagged, there’s no telling a customer’s agent from a malicious one. So they both get blocked.

Most organizations have no idea how many agents are on their site or in their product at any given time. But now, knowing what is accessing your properties is simple…with Agent Detection from Resemble AI.

Resemble already detects AI in content and in communications. Now, Resemble detects AI in behavior. We analyze how each visitor moves and what their intent is. Every session is classified as human, bot, or agent — with reasoning so you can decide how to handle them.
With Agent Detection, you can route permitted agents to the proper spot to complete their task and prevent unauthorized agents from accessing sensitive information or completing fraudulent attempts.

Behavior is the newest modality that requires the detection of AI just like voice, image, and video. Agents start on your site but rarely stay there. Since they can now log in on your behalf, make a phone call, send an email, upload files — basically, anything a human can do. With Resemble, you get detection models that cover content, communications, and behavior anywhere AI poses a threat. And, like all Resemble models, our AI detection is built in-house.
