AI Scrape Protect is a WordPress plugin designed to protect your website from scraping for AI training purposes. It achieves this by adding opt-out instructions to the robots.txt file for the most common AI scraping bots and including meta tags to control how your content is used.
Note: These instructions are not always respected by all bots.

<head>to provide additional instructions to AI bots, including new tags for Bingbot and general AI compliance. - Prepares for future standards with support for

FAQ.KG
-
How does this plugin protect my site from AI scraping?
-
The plugin adds specific
User-agententries to yourrobots.txtfile to instruct common AI scraping bots not to crawl or scrape your site. It also introduces meta tags in the HTML<head>to provide additional instructions to AI bots. -
Will this completely stop AI scraping of my site?
-
While this plugin adds recommendations to the
robots.txtfile and includes meta tags, not all bots follow these rules. This is a measure to discourage scraping rather than a foolproof solution. -
Can I add or remove bots from the list?
-
Currently, the plugin includes a predefined list of bots. If you need to add or remove specific bots, you would need to modify the plugin code or contact the plugin author for customization.
-
What happens if I deactivate the plugin?
-
The
robots.txtfile will revert to its previous state before the plugin was activated, and the meta tags added to the HTML<head>will be removed.
