How Punchline counts ChatGPT-User
Punchline labels a request that names ChatGPT-User with how sure it is: verified or declared when the evidence checks out, a lower tier when it can't be checked, and impostor when the evidence contradicts it. Each visit is counted under OpenAI, with its purpose, so you can see whether ChatGPT-User is bringing people's questions to your pages and which pages it reads. How it works · Known agents
