## Description

SenseGap shows the AI crawlers and assistants that visit your site (GPTBot, ClaudeBot,
PerplexityBot, Googlebot and about 50 more), the pages they read, the errors they
hit, and the people AI products send you.

The plugin connects your site to SenseGap (https://sensegap.com), a hosted service
where the reports live. The plugin itself is free; SenseGap needs a paid plan, from
$9 a month (https://sensegap.com/pricing).

Only bot requests and visits that come from AI products are sent to SenseGap. Plain
human traffic is filtered out on your server and never leaves it. IP addresses are
used to check that a bot is real, then shortened before they are stored.

### External services

This plugin sends data to SenseGap (https://sensegap.com), the service that shows
you which AI bots visit your site. Nothing is sent until you connect the plugin,
either with Connect to SenseGap or by saving a site key.

 * When you click Connect to SenseGap, your browser opens sensegap.com with your
   site’s domain, the address of this settings page and your site’s time zone. After
   you approve, the plugin sends a one-time code to sensegap.com and gets a site
   key back.
 * When you save or connect a key, the plugin asks SenseGap which site the key belongs
   to.
 * After that, for each request from a bot, or from someone who arrived from an 
   AI product, it sends the address, time, response status, user agent, referrer
   and IP address. For AI agents that sign their requests (Web Bot Auth), it also
   sends the signature headers, so SenseGap can check them. Plain human visits and
   logged-in users are never sent.

## FAQ

### Do I need a SenseGap account?

Yes. The plugin collects bot visits and SenseGap turns them into reports. Click 
Connect to SenseGap on Settings  SenseGap to sign in or create an account.

### What is sent, and when?

Nothing, until you connect. After that, only requests from bots and visits that 
come from AI products: the address, time, response status, user agent, referrer 
and IP address. Logged-in users and plain human visits are never sent. See External
services below.

### I use a page cache.

Cached pages are served without running WordPress, so the plugin can’t see bot visits
to them. If your site is on Cloudflare, use the Cloudflare install instead: it sees
every request.

### Does it slow my site down?

No visible delay: the plugin looks at each request after the page is built and sends
only bot visits, after the page has been handed to the visitor when your server 
allows it.
