Quickstart

Zero to first detection in 60 seconds.

Get your first AI agent detection working in under a minute.

Sign Up

Create a free account at lobsterhoney.com/register. Pick an organization name -- this becomes your org slug (e.g. acme-corp).

LobsterHoney automatically creates default traps for your organization.

Hit a Trap

From your terminal, curl one of your pre-seeded trap endpoints:

$curl -v https://your-beacon-domain.com/s/your-org-slug/robots.txt

Replace your-org-slug with the actual org slug you chose during signup.

The response looks like a normal file to human visitors, but contains hidden detection mechanisms that trigger when processed by AI agents.

See the Detection

Open your dashboard -- a new session should appear within seconds showing:

  • The source IP and user agent
  • Which trap was hit
  • Any signals that fired (e.g. CALLBACK_HIT)
  • A threat classification and confidence score

Your curl test will score low because it doesn't follow hidden callbacks or extract credentials. When a real AI agent hits the same trap, it will trigger multiple signals and score much higher. See Detection Scoring for details.
