Block AI Crawlers

वर्णन

Tells AI crawlers (such as OpenAI ChatGPT) not to use your website as training data for their Artificial Intelligence (AI) products. It does this by updating your site’s robots.txt to block common AI crawlers and scrapers. This should prevent your content from being used to traing Large Language Models (LLMs).

It blocks these AI crawlers and bots:

  • ChatGPT and GPTBot – Crawlers and web browser used by OpenAI
  • Google Extended – Crawler used for Google’s Gemini (formerly Google Bard) AI training
  • FacebookBot – Crawler used for Facebook’s AI training
  • Meta – Blocks crawlers used by Meta AI training
  • CommonCrawl – Crawler that compiles datasets used to train AI models
  • Anthropic AI / Claude – Crawler used by Anthropic
  • Omgili – Crawler used by Omgili for AI training
  • Bytespider – Crawler used by TikTok for AI training
  • PerplexityBot – Used by Perplexity for its AI products
  • Applebot – Used by Apple to train its AI products
  • Cohere – Crawler used by Cohere AI training
  • DiffBot – Crawler used by Diffbot for AI training
  • Imagesift – Crawler used by used by Imagesift for images
  • … and more!

Experimental Meta Tags

The plugin adds the “noai, noimageai” directive to your site’s meta tags. These tags tell AI bots not to use your content as part of their data sets. These are experimental and they have not been standardized.

Disclaimer

Note: While the plugin adds these markers, it is up to the crawlers themeselves to honor these requests.

नेहमी विचारले जाणारे प्रश्न

Will this remove my site from existing data sets?

Unfortunately, no. However, it does tell bots that your site shouldn’t be used for future datasets.

How does this work?

The plugin adds directives to the robots.txt file to tell AI crawlers that they shouldn’t index your site. It also adds the noai meta tag to your site’s header to do the same.

What if I already have a `robots.txt` file on my web server?

If you have a physical robots.txt file on your web server, you won’t be able to activate this plugin. The plugin only works when using WordPress’ built-in virtual robots.txt.

Will this work with other plugins that modify the virtual `robots.txt`?

It should in theory. It just appends the directives to the robots.txt file.

Will this prevent my site from being indexed by search engines?

No. Search engines follow different robots.txt rules.

A simple plugin that asks (via the Wordpress robot.txt file) multiple AI crawlers to leave your site alone. Just works and saves much trouble manually updating the robots.txt file.
