LLMReader AI Bots

LLMReader AI Bots connects your site to LLMReader, a service that monitors how AI assistants (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews) mention and cite your brand. An LLMReader account is required - the plugin sends data to it and does nothing until you enter your LLMReader ingest URL. The plugin detects:

• AI crawlers and fetchers: GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, Claude-User, PerplexityBot, Perplexity-User, Google-CloudVertexBot, Meta-ExternalAgent, Applebot, Amazonbot, Bytespider, CCBot and more,
• visitors referred by AI chat apps: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Claude, DeepSeek, Grok, Mistral (by referrer or utm_source).

Matching requests are queued locally and sent to LLMReader every 5 minutes, so page loads are not slowed down. In LLMReader you can then see which pages AI bots read, which pages return errors to them and which pages people coming from AI chats land on. Privacy Only requests from AI crawlers and visits referred by AI chat apps are recorded. Regular visitors are not stored at all. IP addresses, cookies and query parameters (other than utm_source) are never collected. The plugin adds a suggested paragraph to Settings > Privacy > Policy guide that you can copy into your privacy policy. Limitations Pages served entirely from a full-page cache (for example LiteSpeed Cache or Cloudflare) do not run PHP, so the plugin cannot see those requests. For complete data you can additionally send your server access log to LLMReader.
