aeotool

AEO Tool Connect is the companion plugin for <a href="https://aeotool.io" rel="nofollow ugc">aeotool.io</a>, the Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) platform. After auditing your site against 67 AEO criteria, aeotool.io generates the fixes — this plugin applies them on your WordPress site automatically, server-side, so AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended…) actually see them.
What it does
<ul>
<li>JSON-LD structured data — injected in the page head, matched per page, with automatic deduplication against Yoast SEO and Rank Math (Organization / WebSite types are skipped when those plugins are active).</li>
<li>robots.txt AI-bot directives — appended after your existing rules. Your robots.txt is never replaced.</li>
<li>Virtual /llms.txt — served only when no physical llms.txt file exists at your site root.</li>
</ul>
Built to be safe
<ul>
<li>The plugin never writes to your posts, pages or database content — everything is injected at render time through standard WordPress hooks.</li>
<li>Global kill-switch and per-module toggles.</li>
<li>One-click rollback to any of the last 3 applied bundle versions.</li>
<li>If aeotool.io is unreachable, the plugin keeps serving its local cache — your optimizations stay online.</li>
<li>Site-scoped key (never your account API key), revocable at any time from the aeotool.io dashboard.</li>
</ul>
An aeotool.io account with a Pro plan or higher is required to connect a site.
<h3>External services</h3>
This plugin connects to aeotool.io (the plugin author’s own service) to retrieve the optimization bundle generated for your site. It is required for the plugin to do anything: the optimizations (JSON-LD, robots.txt directives, llms.txt content) are generated by your aeotool.io account and pulled by the plugin.
Exactly three API calls are made, all over HTTPS to <code>https://aeotool.io</code>:
<ol>
<li>Pairing (once, when you click Connect): sends the pairing code you typed, your site URL, your WordPress version and the plugin version. Returns a key scoped to this site only.</li>
<li>Bundle pull (twice a day via WP-Cron, or when you click Sync now): sends your site domain, authenticated with the site-scoped key. Returns the optimization bundle.</li>
<li>Status ping (after a bundle is applied): sends the applied bundle version, the list of active modules (e.g. jsonld, robots, llms), your WordPress version and the plugin version, so your aeotool.io dashboard can display the sync status.</li>
</ol>
No personal data, no post or page content, no visitor data, no analytics and no usage tracking are ever transmitted. The plugin makes no other network requests.
