Editions

Choose your depth of observation.

Every edition does the same job — observing AI bots. What differs is the layer it watches from, and how far it sees.

FAQ

Common questions

How is Lite different from the paid edition?

Lite is free and distributed on WordPress.org. Some analysis features, such as the AHQG matrix, are available only in the paid EdgeShaping edition.

Is Google Search Console required?

No. The AHTG matrix works entirely on data inside WordPress. GSC integration is an optional extra that enables the AHQG matrix.

How long are updates provided?

Bot dictionary and bug-fix updates for each version are provided until the next yearly version is released. The plugin keeps working after that, but newly appearing AI bots are added only to the new version's dictionary.

Does it work with caching plugins?

Yes — it's compatible with major caching plugins such as WP Rocket. Cache is bypassed only for AI crawler visits, keeping the impact on page speed minimal.
