A transparent operator’s note explaining how Prisbot collects public prices from Swedish online shops and how site owners can opt out.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-12 issue.

Field notes

Prisbot is described as a price-collection crawler for Swedish online shops that prefers existing schema.org product data over reading entire pages. Its operating limits are unusually explicit: a minimum 2.5-second interval between requests to one domain, no more than one visit to a page per day, and Retry-After handling for 429 or 503 responses. The operator also publishes a robots.txt rule and offers manual removal by email.
