Supertab Connect lets you define how AI systems and automated scrapers can access your content. You can define licensing terms, manage partner access, and track usage without building custom infrastructure. Supertab Connect handles the underlying systems, including license servers, token management, and request verification, so you can focus on controlling who accesses your content and how it’s used. It provides two core capabilities: RSL License Serving Automatically serves your site’s RSL license at /license.xml. The license is fetched from the Supertab Connect API and cached locally for performance, enabling crawlers and AI agents to discover your content’s licensing terms. Crawler Authentication Protocol (CAP) Verify that connected partners are accessing your content present valid license tokens. This allows you to: confirm which customers are accessing your content monitor usage against declared licensing terms control access for specific parts of your site How It Works Enter your Website URN from the Supertab Connect dashboard Your license.xml is immediately served at your site root Optionally add your Merchant API Key to enable license verification Configure which parts of your site require verification via the Crawler Authentication Protocol Features Automatically serves your license file at /license.xml Caches license XML locally for performance No infrastructure changes required Optional verification for connected partners via the Crawler Authentication Protocol Flexible control over which parts of your site are covered External Services This plugin connects to the Supertab Connect API to provide its functionality: RSL License Serving — Your Website URN is sent to retrieve your site’s license XML file.
