What it is

Crawler for ByteDance's Doubao assistant. Bucketed as training — it collects corpus data rather than fetching a page to answer a live question.

In Aiola's taxonomy, Training means scraped for model training or dataset development.

User agent

Look for the match token inside the complete HTTP User-Agent header. Tokens can be spoofed, so use the network checks below for authentication.

Full example User-Agent
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Doubaobot/1.0; +https://www.doubao.com/)
Case-insensitive match token
Doubaobot

Official IP ranges

ByteDance has not published official IP ranges that Aiola successfully fetched for Doubaobot. Aiola does not list cloud-provider ranges or community guesses as if they authenticated this crawler.

Verify authenticity

Start with the source IP recorded by your trusted edge or server, not an untrusted forwarded header.

Reverse- and forward-DNS double lookup
host REQUEST_IP
# Confirm the hostname ends in an official suffix
host RETURNED_HOSTNAME
# The forward lookup must return REQUEST_IP

For production checks, test against every current prefix in the vendor feed. Re-fetch feeds regularly: a July 2026 snapshot is evidence of publication, not a permanent firewall list.

Control it with robots.txt

ByteDance does not provide crawler documentation that Aiola could confidently verify for this token. The rules below express your preference, but vendor compliance is unconfirmed.

Block Doubaobot

No official crawler documentation URL is listed because Aiola could not verify one confidently.
