v3 · What do AI bots actually see when they render?

Of 15 sites where v2 found UA-discrimination signals, 1 blocked us even with a full Chromium pretending to be the bot (so the block runs at the WAF/edge), 2 let the same Chromium through (meaning v2's HTTP block was only at the CDN-rule layer and a JS-rendering bot would bypass it), 1 served bot UAs noticeably more content than real Chrome even after JS execution (still doing dynamic rendering in 2026), and 1 served the same rendered page to everyone.

Generated 2026-05-18 23:08 UTC · headless Chromium (Playwright) for 15 sites × 7 UAs · sibling of the v2 HTTP-only audit.

v2 was a pure HTTP probe — it did not execute JavaScript. v3 launches a real Chromium for each (site, UA) pair, waits for the page to settle, and captures the post-JS DOM and a screenshot. This separates three failure modes that v2 conflates: (a) the WAF/edge rejects the UA → 4xx in v3 too; (b) the CDN serves a thin shell HTML to bot UAs but the JS bundle is identical → v2 said "blocked" but a real browser renders the page anyway; (c) the application discriminates after rendering → both v2 and v3 show divergent content.
