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

Questions about Roominate
How do you detect Roominate?
Roominate signs its requests, so you detect it by verifying the cryptographic signature on each request. A valid signature proves the request came from Roominate; a copied user agent without the signature does not.
What is Roominate?
Roominate is a crawler run by Roominate that signs its requests.
Does Roominate identify itself?
Yes. Roominate signs its requests cryptographically, which is the strongest way an agent can identify itself.
Can a bot pretend to be Roominate?
Not convincingly. A bot can copy Roominate's user agent, but without Roominate signing keys its requests fail verification and it is not labeled Roominate.
How common is Roominate?
Very uncommon. Rare, brand new, or not seen on Verisoul traffic yet.
What does the Verisoul API return for Roominate?
Every session Verisoul identifies as Roominate carries an agent block with id "roominate", name, provider, type "crawler", detection_method "signed" and the detection_signals used (cryptographic, behavioral). Build rules on the id, type and detection method.
