Your content is not getting cited by AI answer engines. Classic SEO plugins (Yoast, RankMath, AIOSEO) optimize for Google’s blue links. Citevera optimizes for the new layer that sits above them – the one that writes the answer.
Citevera is the WordPress plugin for AI search optimization. It makes your site citable by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews, with one-click fixes that don’t require editing theme code or touching header templates.
Who this is for
<ul>
<li>Site owners who have noticed their brand never appears in AI-generated answers.</li>
<li>Marketing teams that want to stay ahead of the AI-search shift.</li>

</ul>
Why Citevera
<ul>
<li>Written for AI answer engines, not retrofitted from classic SEO.</li>

Premium features (active Citevera license required)
The premium tier connects the plugin to the Citevera cloud service at api.citevera.com. These features call our AI inference pipeline and require an active subscription. See the External services section below for the exact data sent and the Terms / Privacy links.
<ul>
<li>AI-powered cloud audit with per-page apply-fix buttons (calls api.citevera.com).</li>
<li>Gutenberg block toolbar: select any paragraph, click “Optimize for AI”, see a diff, accept or decline (calls our AI rewrite service).</li>
<li>Sidebar AI-answerability score inside the Gutenberg editor (cloud-scored).</li>
<li>Competitor tracking and monthly client portfolio reports at app.citevera.com.</li>
</ul>
<h3>External services</h3>
Citevera Free does not connect to any external service.
When you paste a license key to unlock premium features, Citevera connects to api.citevera.com (operated by Citevera) to:
<ul>
<li>Verify the key and return your tier entitlements (one request on activation; background refresh every 12 hours after).</li>
<li>Run cloud audits when you explicitly click “Run full audit”.</li>
<li>Rewrite selected content when you explicitly click “Optimize for AI” in the Gutenberg editor.</li>
</ul>
The data sent to api.citevera.com during a cloud audit is a summary of your site: post counts, active plugins, active theme, detected schema types, and a sample of up to 10 page contents. The admin previews this exact payload before the first cloud audit runs.
Rewrite requests send only the text you selected plus minimal surrounding context (post title, post type, adjacent paragraphs) for a single AI call.

<h3>Development</h3>
This plugin ships its full source code inside the deployed zip to comply with WordPress.org Guidelines 1 and 4 (public access to source code and build tools).
PHP source: src/
JavaScript / TypeScript source for the admin React app and the Gutenberg editor integration: assets/admin/src/ and assets/editor/src/
Build configuration: package.json, tsconfig.json, composer.json
To rebuild the compiled JS bundles in assets/admin/build/ and assets/editor/build/:
<ol>
<li>npm install</li>
<li>npm run build</li>
</ol>
The build uses @wordpress/scripts (webpack under the hood). PHP autoloading is generated by Composer with: composer install –no-dev –optimize-autoloader

Citevera – AI Search Optimization

Optimize WordPress for AI search engines. Generate llms.txt, inject schema.org for ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews.

Smalker001

See the AI agents and AI Search visitors your site actually receives — and never lose an event again.
The web is shifting from search results to answer engines. GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and dozens of other AI crawlers visit your pages every day, and a growing share of your human traffic now arrives from an AI assistant rather than a classic SERP. Most analytics tools were built for the old web and miss all of it.
Smalk AI Analytics adds an AI-aware tracking layer to your WordPress site: every public-page visit (AI agent OR human-from-AI-search) is captured, classified, and pushed to your Smalk dashboard where you can see which engines cite you, which pages they prefer, and how that AI exposure converts into real human traffic.
Unlike crawler-blocking plugins, Smalk does not block AI bots. It helps you measure, optimize, and turn AI exposure into growth.
<h3>KEY FEATURES</h3>
Tracking
<ul>
<li>Real-time capture of AI agent visits (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, GeminiBot, GoogleOther, OAI-SearchBot, Mistral, AppleBot-Extended, and 30+ others) plus human visitors arriving from AI search engines.</li>
<li>Two tracking layers: a lightweight hook captures bot traffic (which never executes JavaScript) AND a <code>tracker.js</code> snippet captures human session context. Both feed the same Smalk dashboard.</li>
<li>Rich proxy header capture (Cloudflare, geo, X-Forwarded-For, X-Real-IP, X-Smalk-CMS) so bot classification stays accurate even behind CDNs.</li>
</ul>
Reliability (new in 1.1.0)
<ul>
<li>Local MySQL queue buffers visits when the Smalk API is briefly unreachable — no more lost events during transient outages.</li>
<li>Background cron flushes the queue every minute via a batched endpoint (up to 500 visits per request).</li>
<li>Built-in circuit breaker pauses outbound calls after repeated failures and resumes automatically.</li>
<li>Per-row exponential-backoff retry + daily cleanup of stale entries.</li>
<li>“Direct” fallback mode for sites that prefer the old fire-and-forget behavior (no queue table).</li>
</ul>
Privacy & compliance
<ul>
<li>Per-site redact list for query parameters (passwords, tokens, credit-card and SSN-style keys are redacted by default before any value leaves your server).</li>
<li>Deny-paths textarea with wildcards on top of a strict built-in exclusion list (<code>/wp-admin</code>, <code>/wp-login</code>, <code>/wp-json</code>, <code>/xmlrpc.php</code>, REST API calls, favicon, etc.).</li>
<li>Per-request-type skip toggles (admin / cron / AJAX / REST) — admin / cron / AJAX skipped by default.</li>
<li>No cookies are set on visitors.</li>
</ul>
Admin experience
<ul>
<li>Modern card-based settings page with a 4-tile Status & Diagnostics panel: queue size, last successful send, circuit-breaker state, last error — refreshed live on every action.</li>
<li>One-click Send test event (probes the Smalk API with a <code>X-Smalk-Probe: 1</code> header so the test never appears in your real analytics), Force-flush queue now, Resume sending (reset circuit breaker), and Clear page caches (purges WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed Cache, Autoptimize, WP Super Cache, Hummingbird, FlyingPress, SG Optimizer, WP Fastest Cache, Cache Enabler, WP Engine, plus the WordPress object cache and PHP OPcache).</li>
<li>Auto-save when you paste a new API key — no scrolling to “Save changes”.</li>
<li>Debug report generator: collects plugin version, queue + sender stats, cron schedules, detected cache plugins, live connectivity probes, and active plugins into a single text blob you can email to support — never dumps raw <code>error_log</code> (no risk of leaking unrelated secrets).</li>
</ul>
Performance
<ul>
<li><code><link rel="preconnect"></code> + <code><link rel="dns-prefetch"></code> for the tracker origin before the async script tag — saves ~50–150 ms TLS+DNS handshake on cold connections (mostly mobile / first-time visitors).</li>
<li>Tracker JS auto-excluded from 10+ caching/minify plugins (WP Rocket, Autoptimize, W3TC, LiteSpeed, SG Optimizer, Hummingbird, FlyingPress, Asset CleanUp, …) so caching never strips it.</li>
<li>Zero impact on TTFB: every flavor of outbound call is either non-blocking (direct mode) or deferred to cron (queued mode, the default).</li>
</ul>
<h3>WHY CHOOSE SMALK AI</h3>
<ul>
<li>See AI traffic accurately. Most analytics drop AI agents entirely (they don’t run JS); Smalk catches them and classifies them in real time.</li>
<li>Never lose an event. The queued mode keeps tracking your site even when our API is briefly unreachable.</li>
<li>Privacy-first defaults. Sensitive query parameters are redacted, admin / cron / AJAX requests are skipped, no cookies on visitors.</li>
<li>No bot blocking. Smalk helps you grow your AI footprint, not shrink it.</li>
<li>Plays nicely with every host and cache. Tested on WP 5.0 / PHP 7.0 through WP 6.9 / PHP 8.3. Auto-detects and works around the major caching / minify plugins.</li>
</ul>
