<p>RankReady is a WordPress plugin built for the AI search layer — the answers ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews show before anyone reaches a blue link. Drop it in alongside your existing SEO plugin (Rank Math, Yoast, AIOSEO — any of them) and start showing up in AI answers and citations. <strong>No conflicts. No replacement. Zero frontend bloat.</strong></p>

<p>Traditional SEO plugins optimize for Google’s classic results. RankReady adds the layer above them: the AI SEO signals — Google’s Open Knowledge Format (OKF), llms.txt, FAQ schema, Markdown endpoints, AI crawler controls — that decide whether AI engines read and cite your content. This is generative engine optimization (GEO) and answer engine optimization (AEO) for WordPress, built to work with the SEO plugin you already use.</p>
<h3>A quick walkthrough of the whole plugin.</h3>

<p>Built by <a href="https://posimyth.com/?ref=rankreadyreadme" rel="nofollow ugc">POSIMYTH Inc.</a> — the team behind The Plus Addons for Elementor, NexterWP, and UiChemy.</p>
<h3>Coexists with your SEO plugin — zero frontend impact</h3>
<p>Install RankReady, optionally pick an LLM provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or DeepSeek) for the AI Summary and FAQ generators, and you’re set. It auto-detects your active SEO plugin and <strong>never emits duplicate schema</strong> — your existing Yoast or Rank Math setup keeps working exactly as before. All AI generation runs in the WordPress admin, so there are no API calls on page load, no third-party scripts, and no extra requests for your visitors. Core Web Vitals are unaffected.</p>
<h3>llms.txt — the AI-native sitemap</h3>
<p>RankReady serves the <a href="https://llmstxt.org" rel="nofollow ugc">llmstxt.org</a> standard at <code>/llms.txt</code> (a curated index of your best content) and <code>/llms-full.txt</code> (the full content concatenated as Markdown). AI crawlers read these files first to understand your site. Configurable post types, max post count, category and tag exclusions, and a per-domain brand identity (site name, summary, about section) you control from the <strong>AI Crawlers</strong> tab. Multilingual sites get hreflang Link headers when WPML, Polylang, TranslatePress, Weglot, or GTranslate is detected.</p>
<h3>AI Summary generator with Speakable schema</h3>
<p>Generate “Key Takeaways” for any post or page via your chosen LLM (OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, or DeepSeek). The summary injects above your content as a styled block with <strong>Speakable schema</strong> — the JSON-LD that voice assistants read aloud. Use the Regenerate button in the post editor, the Gutenberg block, or the Elementor widget. <strong>Unlimited manual generations.</strong></p>
<h3>FAQ schema generator with DataForSEO</h3>
<p>A strong signal for AI Overviews. RankReady can query DataForSEO for the real “People Also Ask” questions ranking for your post’s focus keyword, then has your chosen LLM write the answers. Output is FAQPage JSON-LD — the structured data Google AI Overviews and Perplexity frequently cite over plain article text. Don’t use DataForSEO? Type your own questions and let the LLM answer them. <strong>Unlimited manual generations.</strong> Setup guide in the FAQ section below.</p>
<h3>Author Box with basic E-E-A-T schema</h3>
<p>E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) is what AI models use to decide which sources to trust. RankReady ships a basic Author Box — name, job title, employer, bio, headshot, and basic sameAs links — with Article, Speakable, and FAQPage schema. It auto-detects Rank Math, Yoast, and AIOSEO and skips duplicate output. Display it anywhere via the Gutenberg block or the Elementor widget.</p>
<h3>Markdown endpoints for AI agents</h3>
<p>Every published post and page is served as clean Markdown at <code>/post-slug.md</code> with YAML frontmatter (title, author, dates). AI agents — Claude Desktop, Cursor, ChatGPT, custom clients — read Markdown faster than HTML. Content negotiation via <code>Accept: text/markdown</code> lets crawlers fetch the format they prefer with no URL changes.</p>
<h3>Open Knowledge Format (OKF) — Google’s standard for AI agents</h3>
<p><a href="https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/knowledge-catalog" rel="nofollow ugc">Google’s Open Knowledge Format</a> (OKF v0.1) is a vendor-neutral way to hand your whole site to AI agents as a clean, linked bundle of Markdown — instead of making them scrape your HTML. Turn it on from the AI Crawlers tab and RankReady serves a complete OKF bundle at <code>/okf/</code>:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>/okf/index.md</code> — a manifest of every page, grouped by type, each linked to its concept file</li>
<li><code>/okf/{slug}.md</code> — one Markdown concept per post, tagged with type, description, canonical URL and tags</li>
<li><code>/okf/log.md</code> — a dated change history</li>
<li>One-click <code>.zip</code> export for upload to Google Cloud Knowledge Catalog or a Git repository</li>
</ul>
<p>The bundle is generated entirely on your own server (nothing is sent to Google or anyone else), refreshes automatically whenever you publish or edit, and respects your noindex and per-post exclusion settings — noindexed content never enters the bundle.</p>
<h3>MCP via the WordPress Abilities API</h3>
<p>RankReady registers read-only abilities with the <a href="https://modelcontextprotocol.io/" rel="nofollow ugc">Model Context Protocol</a> through the WordPress Abilities API (<code>wp_register_ability()</code>). On WordPress 7.0 these are surfaced by the official MCP Adapter — no bundled MCP server, no extra service to run.</p>
<h3>Insights — AI referrals, bot activity, freshness</h3>
<p>The <strong>Insights</strong> tab gives you real, server-side analytics with no third-party scripts:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Training & Citation Bots</strong> — Which AI crawlers fetched which pages (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, OAI-SearchBot, Google-Extended, and more). Each citation-bot hit is a live AI answer that retrieved your page.</li>
<li><strong>Real AI Referrals</strong> — Humans clicking through from chatgpt.com, perplexity.ai, claude.ai, gemini.google.com, and copilot.microsoft.com, tracked via the HTTP Referer header.</li>
<li><strong>Content Freshness scanner</strong> — Buckets posts into Stale, Going stale, and Fresh, with one-click <code>dateModified</code> refresh to signal recency to AI crawlers.</li>
</ul>
<p>All counts are stored locally in your own tables — never sent to POSIMYTH.</p>
<h3>31 AI crawler controls + auto robots.txt</h3>
<p>Granular allow/block toggles for <strong>31 AI bots</strong>: GPTBot, ChatGPT-User, OAI-SearchBot, ClaudeBot, Claude-Web, anthropic-ai, PerplexityBot, Perplexity-User, Google-Extended, Bytespider, CCBot, FacebookBot, Meta-ExternalAgent, Applebot-Extended, DuckAssistBot, YouBot, AI2Bot, Diffbot, Cohere-ai, Kagibot, and more. Auto-syncs your choices to <code>robots.txt</code> — both the WordPress virtual <code>robots.txt</code> and a physical <code>ABSPATH/robots.txt</code> if another plugin intercepts the URL. Plus Content Signals (<code>ai-train</code>, <code>search</code>, <code>ai-input</code> directives per <a href="https://contentsignals.org" rel="nofollow ugc">contentsignals.org</a>).</p>
<h3>Cache compatibility + Diagnostics</h3>
<p>RankReady persists cache-bypass entries to each cache plugin’s stored configuration so server-level caches honour the bypass before PHP runs — tested with WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, W3 Total Cache, WP Super Cache, WP Fastest Cache, Breeze, SG Optimizer, Hummingbird, Cache Enabler, Comet Cache, Swift Performance, NitroPack, Perfmatters, Cloudflare APO, Pantheon, Kinsta, and WP Engine. The <strong>Diagnostics</strong> card runs live endpoint probes, detects active SEO plugins, checks rewrite rules and REST routes, scans for cache conflicts, and gives you a one-click plain-text report for support — every failure ships with a one-line fix.</p>
<h3>Coming soon</h3>
<p>A companion add-on (in development) will layer advanced AI SEO automation on top of the free build:</p>
<ul>
<li>Auto-generate AI Summaries and FAQs on publish</li>
<li>Bulk-generate summaries and FAQs across your whole library</li>
<li>HowTo and ItemList JSON-LD</li>
<li>Advanced Person / E-E-A-T schema (credentials, education, certifications, memberships, awards, Wikidata / ORCID / Scholar / LinkedIn, editorial & fact-check policies, Author Trust Panel)</li>
<li>Custom post type support beyond posts and pages</li>
<li>Headless / WPGraphQL API for decoupled front ends</li>
</ul>
<p>These appear as “Coming soon” placeholders in the plugin and ship no code in the free build. Everything listed above the “Coming soon” heading is fully free, with no caps on manual generation.</p>

<h3>Privacy & Third-Party Services</h3>
<p>RankReady is privacy-respecting by default. POSIMYTH does not collect, store, or transmit any data from your site. No telemetry. No analytics. No “phone home”. Your API keys are stored only in your own <code>wp_options</code> table.</p>
<p>The plugin contacts third-party services <strong>only</strong> when you explicitly enter API credentials AND trigger a generation action. Each service is opt-in and uses <strong>your own API key</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>OpenAI</strong> (<a href="https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Use</a> · <a href="https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>) — When you generate an AI Summary or FAQ with OpenAI as your provider, the post’s title and body text are sent to <code>https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions</code> using your own API key. The generated response is stored as post meta on your site. Nothing is sent without an explicit click from you.</li>
<li><strong>Anthropic Claude</strong> (<a href="https://www.anthropic.com/legal/consumer-terms" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Use</a> · <a href="https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>) — When Anthropic is your provider, the same post text is sent to <code>https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages</code> using your own API key. Same opt-in trigger; same one-shot use.</li>
<li><strong>Google Gemini</strong> (<a href="https://ai.google.dev/terms" rel="nofollow ugc">API Terms</a> · <a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>) — When Gemini is your provider, the same post text is sent to <code>https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/<model>:generateContent</code> using your own API key.</li>
<li><strong>DeepSeek</strong> (<a href="https://cdn.deepseek.com/policies/en-US/deepseek-terms-of-use.html" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Use</a> · <a href="https://cdn.deepseek.com/policies/en-US/deepseek-privacy-policy.html" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>) — When DeepSeek is your provider, the same post text is sent to <code>https://api.deepseek.com/chat/completions</code> using your own API key.</li>
<li><strong>DataForSEO</strong> (<a href="https://dataforseo.com/terms-of-service" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Service</a> · <a href="https://dataforseo.com/privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>) — When you trigger the FAQ Generator, the post’s focus keyword is sent to <code>https://api.dataforseo.com/v3/serp/google/organic/live/advanced</code> using your own DataForSEO Login plus Password. Only the keyword string is sent, not the article text. Discovered questions are stored as post meta on your site.</li>
</ul>
<p>No other endpoints are contacted. The plugin never sends any data on its own initiative — every outbound request is the direct result of an administrator action.</p>
