How to detect FaiBot
FaiBot signs its requests, so you detect it by verifying the cryptographic signature on each request. A valid signature proves the request came from Fai Ventures; a copied user agent without the signature does not.

Yes. FaiBot signs its requests cryptographically, which is the strongest way an agent can identify itself.

What does the Verisoul API return for FaiBot?
