Senthor – Protect Against AI Crawlers

Description

Generative AIs (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Mistral, etc.) are scraping millions of articles every day, without authorization, control, or revenue for publishers.
Senthor for WordPress allows you to take back control:

  • Real-time detection of AI crawlers.
  • Selective blocking or authorization.
  • Monetization of each AI request as a new revenue stream.
  • Dashboard with detailed statistics.

This plugin connects your WordPress site to your Senthor account.
Once activated, your content is monitored and protected in the background without modifying your site.

Why Senthor?

Senthor was created to address a simple fact: publishers and content creators are losing control in the AI era.
Every day, their articles are used to train or feed models without consent or compensation.

With Senthor, you finally decide who can access your content and you turn this traffic into a new revenue stream.

Our mission: to ensure that publishers are protected and paid when AI uses their work.

FAQ

Do I need a Senthor.io account?

Yes. The plugin acts as a connector between your site and Senthor.io. An account is required to activate detection and view your data.

Does this block Google or regular search engines?

No. By default, Senthor allows legitimate crawlers (Googlebot, Bingbot, etc.). You keep full control over which bots are allowed or blocked.

Is it free?

You can test Senthor with a free trial account. Paid plans unlock monetization and advanced features.

Will this slow down my site?

No. The plugin works in the background and does not add visible latency for your visitors.

Very quick installation, clear interface, and precise options to block AI crawlers without impacting Google indexing. Exactly what I needed !!!!

Installed on a WordPress 6 via the plugin. Setup took ~1 minutes: upload ZIP activate Create account on the website. No conflicts with our theme or other plugins. What stood out: The dashboard finally shows who is reading our pages from AI crawlers (GPTBot, Perplexity, Claude, etc.), with hour-by-hour cadence and top pages. Controls are simple: allow, rate-limit or block per bot without touching search engine indexers. Our SEO stayed intact after enabling rules. Performance: no noticeable latency and page cache kept working. Clarity: the distinction between classic search bots and generative-AI crawlers is explicit, which reduces the risk of breaking indexing. Wishlist for future versions: per-section policies, webhooks/data export, and notifications on spikes. But as it is today, this plugin already solves the hardest part – visibility – and gives practical, safe controls. Verdict: If you rely on human traffic or advertising and want facts before taking action, this is a solid, well-built tool. Five stars.
