About Screaming Frog Log File Analyser

The Log File Analyser imports web server log files into a local database and shows which URLs search engine and AI bots requested, when, and how often. It verifies bots, counts daily crawl events, and lists response codes, broken links and errors that bots hit while crawling. It can process millions of log lines.

It is a separate product from the Screaming Frog SEO Spider crawler. The free version analyses up to 1,000 log events; a yearly licence removes the limit. It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux.
