Asks ElevenlabsBot not to crawl any page. Well-behaved crawlers stop; it does not stop anyone who ignores robots.txt.

User-agent: ElevenlabsBot
Allow: /

Lets ElevenlabsBot crawl everything. You only need this if a broader rule would otherwise block it.

Should you block it?

ElevenlabsBot only visits when a person asks ElevenLabs's assistant about your page. Blocking it means the assistant can't read the page that person asked about.
