CloakPilot is an affiliate control platform that runs inside WordPress. Every affiliate link on your site gets a short, readable address such as It is built for content sites, review blogs and agencies that earn from other companies' affiliate programmes and want their links organised, measurable and easy to automate.<\/p>\n\n REST API.<\/strong> Links, categories, vendors, click statistics and settings are available under Translation-ready, right-to-left included.<\/strong> The interface is built for Hebrew and Arabic as well as left-to-right languages, and its own language setting can differ from the site's. Translations are delivered through translate.wordpress.org.<\/p><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n Everything listed above is part of this free version, with no account and no time limit.<\/p>\n\n The full version of CloakPilot is a separate download from https:\/\/cloakpilot.net\/download, and downloading it is free. Registering it for free (with an email address or an activation code) gives you one AI agent, which works with your links through a built-in MCP server with its own key, permissions and activity log. A 14-day free trial or a paid plan adds unlimited AI agents, products that route one address to different vendors by country or as a split test, a deals module with an editor block, scheduled link health checks, revenue tracking with earnings per click, network connections, a \"money on the table\" report and four editor blocks. None of that code is included in this plugin; starting a trial or buying a plan downloads the full version from the licensing service, Freemius.<\/p>\n\n CloakPilot works without any external service. It can connect to the following services, each only in the situation described.<\/p>\n\n Freemius (licensing and the optional usage opt-in).<\/strong> CloakPilot uses the Freemius SDK to offer the optional opt-in, the free trial and paid plans. On first activation Freemius shows its own screen asking whether you agree to share basic information. Only if you click \"Allow & Continue\", the details listed on that screen are sent to Freemius (api.freemius.com): your name and email address, the site address and title, the WordPress, PHP and plugin versions, the site language and, where the screen lists it, the names and versions of your plugins and themes. Freemius uses them to manage your account, send license and security notices and, if you start a trial or buy a plan, deliver the paid version. You can opt out later from the Plugins screen. If you skip, nothing is sent and every feature of this plugin keeps working. Terms: https:\/\/freemius.com\/terms\/ - Privacy policy: https:\/\/freemius.com\/privacy\/<\/p>\n\n cloakpilot.net (only when you send feedback).<\/strong> The \"Send feedback\" button on CloakPilot screens opens a form. Nothing is sent until you click Send. Then your server sends the type of feedback, your message and the reply email if you enter one to https:\/\/cloakpilot.net\/api\/feedback, so we can read and answer it. Your site address, the CloakPilot, WordPress and PHP versions, the current CloakPilot screen and the interface and site languages are added only if you tick \"Also send these technical details\" in the form; the box is off by default and the form lists exactly what it adds. No link, click or license data is ever sent. Terms: https:\/\/cloakpilot.net\/legal-terms - Privacy policy: https:\/\/cloakpilot.net\/legal-privacy<\/p>\n\n Google Analytics 4 (only if you turn it on).<\/strong> If you enter a GA4 Measurement ID and API secret under Settings > GA4, each click on a short link (bots excluded) sends an Nothing else leaves your site: CloakPilot makes no request of its own when it is activated or when you open its screens. The font used for the product name in the admin header (Bricolage Grotesque, SIL Open Font License 1.1) is bundled with the plugin and loaded from your own site.<\/p>\n\n\n Yes, under CloakPilot > Settings > Redirects. CloakPilot updates the prefix in your published posts and pages and keeps the previous prefix redirecting, so links that are already out in newsletters or on other sites keep working.<\/p><\/dd>\n Redirects are resolved from a single cached map, without querying each link on every click. Click recording is one database insert. Auto-linking caches its keyword list and runs only on singular posts.<\/p><\/dd>\n In your own WordPress database. Links, clicks, categories and vendors never leave your site unless you connect a script to the REST API yourself. See \"External services\" below for the few connections the plugin can make.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. The short links are ordinary links, so they work in any block, in the classic editor, in page builders and in menus. The AI agents and the MCP server are part of the full version of CloakPilot, which is free to download from https:\/\/cloakpilot.net\/download. Registering the full version for free (with an email address or an activation code) gives you one AI agent. This plugin contains no AI-agent code; its Settings > AI agents tab explains where to get them.<\/p><\/dd>\n By default your links, clicks and settings stay in the database, so reinstalling brings everything back. A setting under Settings > Privacy removes all CloakPilot data when the plugin is deleted.<\/p><\/dd>\n This plugin is complete on its own for managing and tracking links. The full version is a different download that adds the features listed under \"Full version\". You can switch at any time; your links and clicks stay as they are.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\nexample.com\/go\/your-tool<\/code>. When a destination changes, you edit it once in CloakPilot and every post that uses the link follows. Clicks are counted on your own server, so the numbers stay in your WordPress database.<\/p>\n\nWhat CloakPilot does<\/h4>\n\n
