Pierview

<p>AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini crawl websites to generate answers for their users. Pierview Agent Analytics detects these visits and reports them to your <a href="https://www.pierview.ai/" rel="nofollow ugc">Pierview</a> dashboard, giving you visibility into which AI systems are reading your content, how often, and which pages they visit.</p>

<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Named bot identification: distinguishes between 25+ AI agents including ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Grok, Bing, and more</li>
<li>Zero performance impact: detection and reporting use a non-blocking background request that adds no latency to page loads</li>
<li>Privacy controls: redact sensitive query parameters and exclude specific URL path prefixes from being tracked</li>
<li>No database tables: lightweight footprint, clean uninstall</li>
<li>Test connection: verify your API key and endpoint are working from the settings page</li>
<li>Enable/disable without deactivating: pause tracking at any time from the General settings tab</li>
</ul>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li>On each front-end request, the plugin reads the incoming User-Agent header</li>
<li>It checks the User-Agent against a list of 25+ known AI agent patterns</li>
<li>If a match is found, a non-blocking HTTP POST is sent to the Pierview platform in the background</li>
<li>The event appears in your Pierview dashboard with agent name, page path, and timestamp</li>
<li>Regular human visitors and WordPress admin traffic are never tracked</li>
</ol>

<h4>Privacy & Security</h4>

<li>Admin traffic excluded: wp-admin, wp-login.php, REST API, and feed requests are always skipped</li>
<li>Query parameter redaction: strip sensitive parameters (e.g. <code>token</code>, <code>session_id</code>) from paths before they leave your server</li>
<li>Path exclusions: exclude entire sections of your site (e.g. <code>/checkout/</code>, <code>/members/</code>) from tracking</li>
<li>Nonce-protected admin: all admin actions use WordPress nonces and capability checks</li>
<li>No client-side tracking: server-side only, no cookies, no JavaScript injected into your pages</li>
</ul>
<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>This plugin transmits data to the Pierview analytics service when a known AI agent bot is detected visiting your site. No data is sent for regular human visitors.</p>
<p>The following data is sent on each detected bot visit: the bot’s User-Agent string, normalized agent name, your site’s hostname, the request path, HTTP method, HTTP referer header, the visitor’s IP address, and a UTC timestamp.</p>
<p>Data is only transmitted when:<br />
* The plugin is enabled (via the “Enable Tracking” setting)<br />
* A request matches a known AI agent User-Agent pattern<br />
* A valid API key is configured</p>
