Features built for modern AI defense

AI Crawler Guard focuses on AI-specific threats so you stay in control of how GPTs, assistants, and data brokers interact with your content.

Detection

  • Continuously updated AI crawler signatures for GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Amazonbot, and more.
  • Smart pattern matching to catch rebranded AI bots that spoof traditional user-agents.
  • Traffic context hints such as hit frequency and URL depth to identify suspicious crawlers.

Blocking modes

  • Global "Block known AI crawlers" switch for an instant lock-down.
  • Global "Allow all crawlers" mode to permit all bots while still tracking activity.
  • Granular allow/block overrides at the individual crawler level.

Crawler history & controls

  • Per-crawler timeline showing first seen, last seen, total hits, and action taken.
  • Quick badges—Allowed, Blocked—to see site posture at a glance.
  • CSV export for compliance, vendor negotiations, or legal teams.

Logs

  • Structured log entries with bot, URL, masked IP, request method, and decision.
  • Configurable retention so you can keep 7 days or 180 days based on storage.
  • One-click log clearing plus manual redaction for sensitive URLs.

Custom rules

  • Add your own bot patterns with regex or partial string matching.
  • Tag rules as AI, social, search, or custom to keep reporting clean.
  • Optional "Override core list" toggle when you want your rule to win.

Compatibility & performance

  • Native WordPress UI following core design patterns—no confusing dashboards.
  • Works alongside caching plugins, Cloudflare/WAF setups, and WooCommerce.
  • Lightweight footprint (under 60KB of PHP) and no calls to remote APIs.
