Short answer

Web Bot Auth is a method for bots and AI agents to cryptographically sign their web requests so websites can verify who they are. Instead of relying on easily spoofed user-agent strings, sites can check signatures and treat verified agents accordingly, such as allowing, rate-limiting, or charging them. It supports trusted automated access.
