A tiny experiment that shows every user agent hitting a page in real time, including referrers, as it happens.
No cookies. No analytics dashboards. Just raw traffic.
- Live stream of page views
- User agent + referrer (when present)
- Naive human vs bot classification
- Built to make bot traffic visible when a link goes viral
If this page hits Reddit or Hacker News, you can literally watch the traffic shape change.
People talk about bots constantly.
Very few tools let you see them.
This is intentionally simple, public, and slightly voyeuristic.
- Cloudflare Worker at the edge
- Server-Sent Events (SSE) for realtime updates
- Durable Object holds:
- active connections
- a rolling in-memory buffer of recent hits
- No IP addresses stored
- No cookies
- No persistence beyond the rolling window
- Cloudflare Workers
- Durable Objects
- Vanilla HTML + JS
- SSE (no WebSockets)
Best-effort heuristic based on user agent strings.
It will be wrong sometimes.
That’s fine — the goal is visibility, not enforcement.
