Simple AI Blocker is a WordPress Plugin Directory app by maxhaesslein.
AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Simple AI Blocker is a newly-listed WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. no published reviews yet means feature claims are unverified by the wider merchant base. Without a published review base, the only fit-signal available is the developer's own documentation plus the marketplace's listing-quality audit (linked below). Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +Published by maxhaesslein — established developer track record
Cons
- −No public reviews yet — fit and reliability are unverified

How Simple AI Blocker works
Block AI Crawlers directly via their IP addresses or user-agents. The blocking happens directly on the server, and not via robots.txt, so it should also block crawlers that do not respect the robots.txt.
This plugin may not work if you use a caching plugin that hooks before the ‘plugins_loaded’ hook. I may add compatibility in a future update.
After installation you need to activate blocking on the plugin settings page. The default settings should suffice, but you can add additional IP addresses, user agents or even JSON endpoints with lists of ip ranges.
The visitor ip address server variable can also be customized, if your site is behind a reverse proxy and REMOTE_ADDR is not available.
If you want to delete all data the plugin saves in your database, activate the ‘delete all plugin data on uninstall’ option before uninstalling.
