Ambiscale

<p>As AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity change how people search, <strong>Ambiscale LLMs Friendly</strong> plugin ensures your website is accurately represented – enhancing visibility and accuracy in AI-driven recommendations.</p>
<h3>Why do I need it?</h3>
<p>With AI tools playing a growing role in content discovery and analysis, websites need a reliable, standardized way to communicate with large language models. Our plugin takes care of this automatically – generating structured, LLM-friendly text files that help AI systems accurately interpret and present your WordPress content.</p>
<h3>What is llms.txt</h3>
<p>The llms.txt (similar to robots.txt) is a proposed standard for helping large language models understand website content during inference time. It provides a structured markdown file called llms.txt containing key information about your site, making it easier for AI tools to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Quickly understand what your site is about</li>
<li>Access the most important content</li>
<li>Navigate your site’s structure efficiently</li>
<li>Work within context window limitations</li>
</ul>
<h3>When to use LLMs.txt</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Developer documentation</strong> – Ensure AI coding assistants can easily access and understand your technical content.  </li>
<li><strong>Business websites</strong> – Help AI tools accurately interpret your products, services, and company details.  </li>
<li><strong>Educational resources</strong> – Make it easier for AI tutors to explain and navigate your learning materials.  </li>
<li><strong>News & blogs</strong> – Allow AI to summarize, reference, and contextualize your articles with greater precision.  </li>
<li><strong>E-commerce sites</strong> – Enable AI shopping assistants to read and reason over your product catalog.  </li>
<li><strong>Personal portfolios</strong> – Showcase your work and achievements in a format that’s accessible to AI models.</li>

Dark Visitors – Bot & AI Agent Analytics, Robots.txt Generator & Blocker, LLM Referral Tracker


Please remind me in a month to provide an update on the performance of this plugin on a heavily visited website.


Begun my review...


An easy improvement would be to link to the settings page from the plugin entry like other plugins, other than that, in general this plugin and its online dashboard is generally well thought out and useful. My website is small and has limited resources that get overrun by crawlers making it unavailable. This plugin helps identify the culprits and decide if I should block them or not. For free you can block them in robots.txt, as I have a physical file, the plugin won't touch that but its easy to add manually. It will report those crawlers that ignore the robots file and the paid version will enforce those rules, but I just update ".htaccess" myself.



I'm reducing my rating by a star since you won't get much "Agent Analytics" (per month) and for my tiny site it quickly ran out, we are a NFP so don't have money to burn on subscriptions.  The the description for the plan incorrectly states "Unlimited Agent Analytics" when the plan only includes 100,000 events.


Very Useful Plugin


Very good: shows all bot-crawlers.Our website was sometimes down due to bot-crawlers, with this tool it is easy to solve. Very good logging of bots.This was the only good plugin I could find for this purpose.Some bots ignore robots.txt. So I manually changed htaccess, that worked very good.


Very very helpful
