What "verified" means for Google-Agent

For Google-Agent, "verified" means DataSaaS compares the request IP against Google's published ranges. A request carrying this user agent from any other IP is recorded as unverified.

Track it

Google-Agent fetches raw HTML and never runs JavaScript, so no browser tag can see it. Install the DataSaaS server-side package to record every request and verify the ones that publish IP ranges.
