AI Kansoku Lab Tracker

AI Kansoku Lab Tracker detects visits from AI-related crawlers such as GPTBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot using PHP server-side detection. AI crawlers often do not execute JavaScript, so JavaScript-based analytics tools such as GA4 may not record these visits as normal pageviews. This plugin helps site owners observe AI crawler activity at the server level. Detected crawler visits are stored in your WordPress database. Optional external tracking is available only when you explicitly enable it in the settings page. Features

• 14 AI-related crawler patterns – GPTBot, ChatGPT-User, OAI-SearchBot, ClaudeBot, Anthropic-AI, PerplexityBot, ByteSpider, Meta-ExternalAgent, AppleBot, DeepSeek, Grok, xAI, CopilotBot, and Google-Extended related access patterns
• Local crawler logging – Detected visits are stored in your WordPress database
• 30-day trend analysis – Dashboard with 30-day / 7-day period switching
• AI Exposure Score – Visibility score based on crawler activity
• Crawler breakdown – See which AI-related services visit your site most
• Top pages – Identify which pages AI crawlers focus on
• Explicit opt-in for external tracking – External transmission only activates when you enable it via checkbox
• Minimal performance impact – Optional external requests use non-blocking POST requests
• Front-end only – Does not fire on admin, cron, AJAX, or REST API requests
• WordPress standards – Uses wp_remote_post, register_setting, nonce verification, and proper escaping throughout

日本語の説明 AI Kansoku Lab Tracker は、GPTBot ・ ChatGPT-User ・ ClaudeBot ・ PerplexityBot などの AI 関連クローラーがあなたのサイトを訪問した記録を、WordPress 上で検知・可視化するプラグインです。 AI クローラーは JavaScript を実行しないことが多いため、GA4 などの JavaScript ベースのアクセス解析では通常のページビューとして記録されない場合があります。本プラグインは PHP によるサーバーサイド検知を採用し、AI クローラーの訪問をサーバーレベルで観測できるようにします。 検知したクローラーのログは WordPress のローカルデータベースに保存されます。外部トラッキングを有効にした場合のみ、AI 観測ラボへデータを送信します。 主な機能:

• 14 種類以上の AI 関連クローラーパターンを検知
• 検知ログを WordPress のローカル DB に保存
• 30 日間のトレンド分析（7 日間表示への切り替え対応）
• AI 露出スコアによる可視化
• クローラー種別の内訳表示
• よく見られているページの可視化
• 外部トラッキングは明示的なオプトイン方式
• 管理画面・ AJAX ・ REST API ・ WP-Cron では実行しない設計

開発・運営: AI 観測ラボ How It Works When a front-end page is requested, the plugin checks the User-Agent string against known AI-related crawler patterns. If a match is found, the detected visit is stored in your WordPress database. If you have explicitly enabled external tracking and configured a Site ID, the plugin also sends an asynchronous POST request to the AI Kansoku Lab API. This optional external request uses a non-blocking request so that the site visitor experiences no delay. External Services This plugin may connect to the following external service: AI Kansoku Lab\ https://www.ai-kansoku.com External tracking is opt-in only. Data is only transmitted after you explicitly enable external tracking in the plugin settings page. When an AI-related crawler is detected and external tracking is enabled, the following data is sent to the AI Kansoku Lab API:

• User-Agent string of the detected crawler
• URL path of the visited page
• HTTP referer header, if present
• HTTP status code of the page, such as 200 or 404
• Site ID configured in the plugin settings

No personally identifiable information is collected. This plugin does not collect cookies, account credentials, form contents, or visitor IP addresses.
