Temso AI

Temso captures every request your WordPress origin serves over HTTP and sends it to Temso in the background. No DNS changes, no extra infrastructure — install, paste two values, done.
<ul>
<li>Captures all server-side requests — front-end, wp-admin, REST, AJAX, login, xmlrpc. Bot classification happens in Temso.</li>
<li>Non-blocking, batched delivery — adds no perceptible latency to your pages.</li>
<li>No cookies, no JavaScript, no client-side tracking.</li>
<li>Visitor IPs are sent over TLS and hashed in Temso before storage; raw IPs are never retained.</li>
<li>WordPress Multisite supported (activate and connect per site).</li>
</ul>

Requests served from full-page cache never reach PHP and therefore can’t be captured by any origin plugin — this is expected and matches the documented CDN-cache limitation.
<h3>Privacy</h3>
This plugin sends the following per HTTP request that WordPress serves (front-end, wp-admin, REST, AJAX, login, xmlrpc) to the Temso API endpoint you configure: timestamp, request URL, HTTP method, response status, user agent, referer, and the visitor IP address. The IP address is transmitted over TLS and hashed by Temso before storage — it is never stored in raw form, and the plugin sets no cookies and adds no client-side tracking.

Stream front-end request logs from your WordPress origin to Temso so AI-crawler and bot traffic shows up in your dashboard.
