What is PetalBot?

PetalBot is the official web crawler for Petal Search, a search engine service launched by Huawei. The bot systematically visits and indexes publicly accessible web pages to build and update the search engine's database. This enables Petal Search to deliver relevant and up-to-date search results to its users. PetalBot identifies itself via the user-agent string 'PetalBot' when crawling websites. Website administrators can manage PetalBot's access to their sites using the robots.txt protocol, similar to other major search engine crawlers. Petal Search and PetalBot are part of Huawei's broader efforts to provide alternatives to established search engines, particularly for users of Huawei devices.
