Zicy AI Access Monitor is a WordPress Plugin Directory app by zicygp.
AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Zicy AI Access Monitor 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 zicygp — established developer track record
Cons
- −No public reviews yet — fit and reliability are unverified

How Zicy AI Access Monitor works
Show full descriptionShow less
Zicy AI Access Monitor helps site owners understand when known AI crawlers and AI assistant retrieval agents access their WordPress content.
The plugin logs self-identifying AI-related User-Agents, summarizes raw visits into daily totals, and provides an admin dashboard for reviewing AI access patterns across your site. It is designed for AI visibility, AI search optimization, and content monitoring workflows.
What it tracks:
Search crawlers — AI systems that may crawl content for search or answer retrieval workflows, such as OAI-SearchBot and PerplexityBot
Training crawlers — AI-related crawlers that may access content for model training or dataset-building workflows, such as GPTBot, ClaudeBot, CCBot, Amazonbot, Bytespider, CohereBot, Mistral-ai, and Meta-WebIndexer
User proxies — AI assistant fetchers that retrieve pages when responding to user requests, such as ChatGPT-User, Claude-User, Perplexity-User, Gemini-Deep-Research, Google-Agent, and BingPreview
AI control agents — AI-related User-Agents such as Google-Extended that may represent AI data-use control behavior rather than ordinary search crawling
How it works:
Matching visits are recorded as temporary raw logs.
URLs are normalized to reduce duplicates caused by common tracking parameters.
IP addresses are anonymized by default before being stored.
Each night at 02:15 site time, raw logs older than today are summarized into daily totals.
Raw logs that have been rolled up are deleted.
Daily summary records are retained so you can review historical AI access activity.
In your WordPress admin dashboard:
View daily summaries of known AI bot and AI assistant access
See today’s raw logs before the next rollup
Filter by date, bot, type, or signature
Review top pages accessed by AI assistant user proxies
Compare week-over-week activity for top pages
See vendor diversity indicators for accessed pages
Export daily summary data as CSV
Receive weekly email summaries with top accessed pages
Generate copy-ready AI Tracking Briefs for selected pages
Why it matters:
See which known AI systems are accessing your content
Identify which pages AI assistants retrieve most often
Support AI search optimization and AI visibility reporting
Understand differences between crawler, training, control, and user-triggered AI access
Build structured page briefs that can be used in AI visibility workflows

Important detection note:
This plugin detects only self-identifying User-Agents. It does not guarantee that every visit is from the claimed company or system, because User-Agent headers can be spoofed. The plugin should be used as a visibility and reporting aid, not as a security or access-control tool.
Privacy Zicy AI Access Monitor is designed to keep raw request-level data temporary.
The plugin stores matching AI-related access events in your WordPress database, anonymizes IP addresses by default, rolls raw logs into daily summaries, and deletes rolled-up raw logs. Daily summaries are retained for reporting. The plugin does not send logged access data to Zicy or any third-party service.
Site owners are responsible for ensuring that their use of access logging complies with applicable privacy laws and their own privacy policy.
