Arcade vs CrawlCheck: Which Is Better in 2026?

Great product storytelling usually requires a designer, an agency, or an unreasonable amount of your own time. Arcade collapses all of that: it's an AI-powered platform for creating on-brand product videos, interactive demos and visual content in minutes, without hiring anyone.

AI agents that know your brand

Arcade uses AI agents to generate professional storytelling assets that actually reflect your product. Feed it your brand guidelines, product context and messaging, and it produces content that looks on-brand rather than generic. You can create by prompting the AI or by editing manually — so you get speed when you want it and control when you need it.

Demos, videos and voiceovers in one place

The platform spans AI video generation, interactive demo creation, personalization, and synthetic voiceover, so you're not stitching together five different tools to tell one coherent story. It even integrates with design tools like Figma, so the assets your designers already made can flow into the demos and videos you build. The result is a consistent product narrative across every format.

Distribute it everywhere

Once your content is ready, Arcade lets you distribute it via embedding, downloads or shareable links — dropping an interactive demo onto a landing page, a video into an email, or a walkthrough into a sales deck. Because it's fast to produce, teams can spin up tailored content for specific campaigns instead of reusing one tired asset everywhere.

Who it's for

Arcade is aimed at product marketers, sales engineers, customer success and enablement professionals, and product managers across enterprises who need faster content for go-to-market work. If your GTM motion is bottlenecked on 'we need a demo/video for that' and design is always slammed, Arcade unblocks it.

Pricing

Arcade runs a freemium model with paid tiers as your needs grow (full pricing is on their site). Starting free lets you produce real content and gauge the quality before committing budget.

The speed advantage compounds over time: because Arcade produces on-brand assets in minutes, teams can create tailored content for each campaign, segment or persona instead of stretching one generic video across every use case. That personalization is exactly what makes go-to-market content perform, and it's usually the first thing to get cut when production depends on scarce design resources. Arcade removes that trade-off entirely, letting small teams punch well above their weight.

Bottom line: Arcade is the AI content studio for GTM teams — on-brand demos, videos and voiceovers in minutes, no agency invoice, no designer bottleneck.

CrawlCheck is a free GEO (generative engine optimization) audit tool that shows exactly how AI crawlers see your website. Paste any domain and get an instant report: which of 61 AI crawlers are allowed, blocked, or ignored by your robots.txt, whether your llms.txt file exists and is well formed, and whether your sitemap is healthy and discoverable.

AI search is becoming a real traffic source. Chatbots like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews fetch pages before they answer, and they obey very different rules from Googlebot. A robots.txt that looks fine for classic search can silently lock out GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot or Google-Extended, which means your content never enters the index behind those answers.

CrawlCheck checks all of this in one scan. You get a per-crawler breakdown that separates allowed, blocked and ignored agents, a check on your llms.txt and sitemap, and a short list of concrete fixes ordered by impact. Every scan produces a shareable report link you can send to a client, a developer or your team, so the fix list turns into a work item instead of a vague warning.

The report flags the exact user-agent lines that are missing or disallow rules that are too broad, points out a missing or malformed llms.txt, catches sitemap errors such as blocked entries or a stale lastmod, and gives copy-paste snippets for the most common setups, including Cloudflare, Next.js, WordPress and plain static hosting. Each finding is labelled with a severity level so you can fix the blockers first and leave the cosmetic items for later.

The tool is built for SEO teams, content marketers, developer-facing SaaS founders and indie makers who want their pages to be cited by AI search engines, not just ranked by classic search. It runs on Cloudflare Workers, needs no account, and returns results in a few seconds. Visit crawlcheck.dev to run a free audit on your own site.

What problem it solves

A robots.txt that looks fine for Googlebot can silently lock out GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and Google-Extended, so your content never enters the index behind AI answers.
