Skildring
RealTrace AI delivers real-time traffic classification and visitor counting for your WordPress site. It accurately separates authentic human readers from search engine indexers (Google, Bing) and automated AI answer engine scrapers (OpenAI GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Perplexity, ByteSpider, and DeepSeek).
Equipped with a dual-layer tracking system (combining standard server detection with a client-side REST beacon), it ensures human visitors are counted even on sites running aggressive full-page caching like LiteSpeed or WP Rocket.
Features
- Dual-Layer Tracking: Server-side detection captures bots and curl requests; client-side REST beacon counts human page-cache hits.
- AEO & LLM Crawler Detection: Pre-configured signatures for GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Meta AI, Applebot, and ByteDance.
- Cache-Busting Design: Bypasses LiteSpeed, Cloudflare, and Nginx caching without external CDN calls.
- Interactive Frontend Shortcodes: Display real-time visitor counters or head-to-head battle widgets.
- 100% Local & Privacy Focused: Operates entirely within your local WordPress database without transmitting data to external servers.

-
Does this plugin work with page caching plugins?
-
Yes. While standard PHP hit counters fail on cached pages, RealTrace AI uses an asynchronous REST API beacon (
/wp-json/realtrace/v1/track) to record verified visits. -
Does this plugin send data to external third-party services?
-
No. RealTrace AI processes and stores all logs completely inside your WordPress database. No visitor IP addresses or data are transmitted to any external third-party service.
