Crawler Record tells you the last time each of the most common search/chat bots visited (Google, ChatGPT, etc)- and the pages at which they looked.

Crawler Record logs the last time specific user agents (for search and AI chat/LLMs) accessed your content including:
<ul>
<li>Google</li>
<li>Bing</li>
<li>ChatGPT (OpenAI)</li>
<li>Claude (Anthropic)</li>
<li>Perplexity</li>
<li>DuckDuckGo</li>
</ul>
You can view this information:
<ul>
<li>Admin page: a grouped list of all crawlers, with last seen time, last page, and robots status for the crawler. </li>
<li>Admin Bar (front-end): quick-glance status for the current singular or URL context (no dropdowns in wp-admin).</li>
<li>Per Page/Post: From the edit screen on any page or post, you can see that last time each crawler visited that page.</li>
</ul>
Robots-aware: The plugin checks your robots.txt and evaluates Allow/Disallow rules for a given path. If Settings → Reading → “Discourage search engines” is enabled, all agents are shown as blocked with a prominent warning.
Performance-friendly by design: Write-throttling (default 10 minutes) and an auxiliary “last post ID per agent” record avoids heavy admin queries on large sites.
Privacy-friendly: Saves only bot visit timestamps and last URLs crawled — no personal data.

<h4>Highlights</h4>
<ul>
<li>Supports common user-agent variants for Google, Bing, OpenAI (ChatGPT), Anthropic (Claude), Perplexity, and DuckDuckGo.</li>
<li>Robots status computed from local robots.txt (physical or virtual) without outbound requests.</li>
<li>Clear UI with grouped sections, microsecond timestamps, and a small diagnostics toggle showing the matched robots group and rule.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Known limitations</h4>
<ul>
<li>robots.txt wildcards (<code>*</code>) and end-of-line marker (<code>$</code>) are not interpreted; matching is prefix-based only. Future versions may add full spec support.</li>
</ul>
