Revvim is a bot in the SEO crawlers category, operated by Revvim.
Our bot crawls our customers' websites to identify SEO opportunities
SEO crawlers map links, keywords and technical issues for SEO tools and backlink databases. They help the tool's customers, often your competitors, rather than you. Rate limit or block the ones you do not use.
Revvim identifies itself with this user agent string:
Chrome/54.0.2840.71 (compatible; RevvimGort/5.0; +http://www.revvim.com; [email protected])Anyone can copy a user agent string. Transfon Security also checks where each request comes from, so a request that claims to be a known crawler but comes from the wrong network is treated as a fake, not as the real crawler.
We have not confirmed whether Revvim follows robots.txt. Add a rule, then check your logs to see that it stopped. robots.txt is a plain text file at the root of your domain, such as https://example.com/robots.txt.
User-agent: RevvimGort Disallow: /
User-agent: RevvimGort Disallow: /private/ Disallow: /search
User-agent: RevvimGort Allow: /blog/ Disallow: /
User-agent: RevvimGort Allow: / User-agent: * Disallow: /
User-agent: RevvimGort group, Revvim ignores your User-agent: * rules, so repeat any that should still apply.RevvimGort from Revvim's user agent; check Revvim's own documentation if it publishes a different robots.txt name.Treat robots.txt as a statement of your policy, and enforce it where requests arrive.
Revvim works for an SEO tool's customers, often your competitors. It adds server load without readers, so rate limit or block it unless you use the tool.
Transfon Security for publishersSEO crawlers map landing pages and links for competitor research. Keep Revvim's visits out of campaign data.
Transfon Security for advertisersRevvim can map your catalogue, prices and site structure for competitors. Block it unless you use the tool yourself.
Transfon Security for e-commerceAllow Revvim only if your team uses the tool; otherwise rate limit it on docs and marketing pages.
Transfon Security for SaaS and APIsrobots.txt is a request, not an enforcement. Transfon Security shows Revvim by name in the Top Bots report, so you can see how often it visits and which pages it reads. Block or allow it with a User Agent rule, or slow it down with a rate limit decision rule.

We have not confirmed whether Revvim follows robots.txt. Add a robots.txt rule, then check your logs to see that it stopped, and block it by user agent if it did not.
Add "User-agent: RevvimGort" followed by "Disallow: /" to the robots.txt file at the root of your site. To enforce it, block requests whose user agent contains "RevvimGort" at your WAF. In Transfon Security that is one User Agent block rule.
No. robots.txt is voluntary, so Revvim may not follow it, and anyone can send Revvim's user agent, so a fake Revvim ignores your rule. Enforce the rule where requests arrive, at your WAF, and check the source network.
