AI Kansoku Lab Tracker
AI Kansoku Lab Tracker detects visits from AI crawlers such as GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot using PHP server-side detection. Because AI crawlers do not execute JavaScript, traditional analytics tools like GA4 cannot capture these visits. This plugin solves that problem.
Features
- 14 AI-related crawler patterns – GPTBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, ByteSpider, Meta-ExternalAgent, AppleBot, DeepSeek, Grok, and related AI access patterns including Google-Extended
- Explicit opt-in – External tracking only activates when you enable it via checkbox
- Minimal performance impact – Uses non-blocking POST requests (blocking: false)
- Simple setup – Just paste your Site ID, enable tracking, and save
- WordPress standards – Uses wp_remote_post, register_setting, nonce verification, and proper escaping throughout
- Front-end only – Does not fire on admin, cron, AJAX, or REST API requests
How It Works
When a front-end page is requested, the plugin checks the User-Agent string against known AI crawler patterns. If a match is found — and you have explicitly enabled external tracking — it sends an asynchronous POST request to the AI Kansoku Lab API to log the visit. The site visitor experiences no delay.
