AI assistants and search engines increasingly rely on autonomous crawlers and agents — ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google’s Gemini-related agents, and others — to read and reference websites. Agurel AI Agent Monitor gives you visibility into this traffic directly inside your WordPress dashboard.
This is a monitoring-only plugin. It does not block, allow, or otherwise control access for any bot — it simply shows you what is already happening on your site.
What it shows you
- Total AI agent visits over a selected period (7 / 30 / 90 days)
- Which specific agents are visiting (ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, GPTBot, and more)
- A breakdown by purpose: Live Response (on-demand fetches), Search / Indexing, and Training crawlers
- Your most-visited pages (top 30) for the selected period
- An automatic alert if AI agent traffic drops sharply compared to the previous period — a useful early signal that something (a robots.txt change, a security plugin, a firewall rule) may be blocking agents from reaching your site
Built to stay out of your way
- No configuration needed — install and it starts recording
- No external services, tracking scripts, or third-party requests — everything stays on your own server and database
- Dynamic/query-string URLs (search results, filtered listings, tracking parameters) are never logged, only clean content pages
- Raw visit data is automatically kept for a maximum of 6 months; the dashboard itself looks back at most 3 months
A note on caching
For accurate logging, this plugin needs its PHP code to actually run when an AI agent visits — page caching can sometimes short-circuit that. On activation, the plugin adds a small, safe block to your .htaccess file so that known AI agent requests bypass LiteSpeed’s server-level cache, and it marks agent requests with the standard DONOTCACHEPAGE constant recognized by most popular cache plugins (WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, etc.). Edge/CDN-level caching (for example, Cloudflare’s “Cache Everything” setting) sits in front of your server entirely and cannot be addressed from within WordPress — if you use this, some agent visits may not be recorded.
