2 of 5 measures had too little evidence to score. They are left out of the total rather than counted as zero — otherwise a plugin would be marked down for being small rather than for being poorly kept.Measured 2026-09-15 from the WordPress.org plugin registry.

Ratings

No one has rated this plugin on WordPress.org yet. That is a statement about the ratings page, not about the plugin — plenty of well-kept plugins never collect them.

AI assistants now recommend products and content to billions of queries every month — but they can only recommend sites they can read. Shop2LLM gives them a structured, machine-readable catalog of everything you publish, so your products and articles show up when a user asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Claude for a recommendation.

Works with any WordPress site — with WooCommerce for product AI visibility, or standalone for blog/article AI visibility. One-click setup, no API keys to configure.

Privacy

This plugin can optionally connect to external services provided by FinCore. All external data transmission is opt-in and disabled by default:

Analytics (Settings → Shop2LLM → Analytics) — when enabled, anonymized site metadata (hashed site identifier, platform, version numbers) and AI crawler visits (crawler type, page URL, user agent) are sent to our cloud service. This can be disabled at any time.
Product Sync (Settings → Shop2LLM → Product Sync) — when enabled, lightweight product metadata (title, price, category, image URL) is synced to the Shop2LLM cloud search index so your products appear in AI searches across all connected stores. This is disabled by default and requires explicit opt-in.
api.shop2llm.com/fincore/v1/free/ping — called when analytics is enabled, to register hashed site metadata. Also called during the daily heartbeat if analytics is active.
api.shop2llm.com/fincore/v1/store/feed/sync — called when Product Sync is enabled, to sync product metadata to the cloud search index. Synced once daily.
api.shop2llm.com/fincore/v1/crawler/log — called when AI crawlers visit your store, if analytics is enabled.
api.deepseek.com — when you use the “Ask AI” Hero Test Search, your search query and lightweight product metadata (name, price, currency, stock, rating) are sent to DeepSeek’s API to generate the AI reply. DeepSeek’s servers may be located outside your jurisdiction. No personal customer data, order information, or full product descriptions are transmitted.

No personal customer data, order information, or product data is transmitted. All external calls use HTTPS and are non-blocking (will not affect site performance if the service is unavailable).

Email notifications — This plugin may send transactional emails to the site administrator:
* AI Crawler Discovery — when an AI platform first crawls your site, an email is sent to the admin. You can disable this in Settings → Shop2LLM → Email Notifications.
* SEO Audit Report — when SEO Audit is enabled, a weekly email summary is sent. You can disable this in SEO → SEO Settings → Audit.
All email notifications are opt-in (disabled by default) and include an unsubscribe notice in each email.

Shop2LLM optionally checks Wikidata and Wikipedia public APIs to determine if your brand or focus query appears in their databases. This feature is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled in settings. When enabled, only your focus query text is sent to these public APIs — no personal data, user data, or site credentials are ever transmitted. API results are cached locally for 7 days to minimize requests.

What happens without this plugin?

Your competitors get recommended by AI instead. ChatGPT, Perplexity, and other AI assistants can’t read your content — they recommend whoever they can read. Shop2LLM gives them a structured, machine-readable catalog of everything you publish. Without it, your site is invisible to the fastest-growing search channel on the web.

Why trust Shop2LLM’s performance claims?

Shop2LLM is independently tested and A-rated on MakeWPFast.com — a third-party WordPress speed certification service. The benchmark report covers Home, Blog, and Product page contexts and rates overall plugin impact as “Low.” Methodology: measured TTFB, memory delta, and DB query delta against a clean WordPress baseline on the same hosting stack. Full report is published at the link above. Safe to install on any hosting — external calls are non-blocking with 1s timeouts, so even if our cloud is unreachable your site remains fast.

What does Shop2LLM actually output?

On activation, Shop2LLM immediately generates:

llms.txt — a machine-readable catalog at yoursite.com/llms.txt listing your content with titles, slugs, descriptions, and last-modified dates
LLM-friendly permalink — a clean URL AI agents use: yoursite.com/ai/v1
JSON-LD Schema — Product schema (with WooCommerce) or BlogPosting schema (standalone)
robots.txt rules — 12 AI crawler allow directives
REST API endpoint — MCP-compatible endpoint at yoursite.com/wp-json/shop2llm/v1/chat/completions

You can verify all of this immediately after activation — no configuration required.

Does this require WooCommerce?

No. Shop2LLM works with any WordPress site. WooCommerce is optional — when active, you get product-specific features like price search, stock tracking, and product schema. Without WooCommerce, content search, BlogPosting schema, and all AI crawler features still work.

Does this require a FinCore cloud account?

No. Core AI features run entirely on your WordPress server. Product indexing (making your products searchable by AI assistants across all Shop2LLM-connected stores) sends lightweight product metadata to our cloud search index — this feature is opt-in and disabled by default. Enable it in Settings → Shop2LLM → Product Sync. See the data section below for exactly what is sent.

Is my content data sent to external servers?

Content data (full product descriptions, customer data, orders) stays on your server. AI agents connect directly to your WordPress REST API for detailed product information. When you enable Product Sync (opt-in, disabled by default), the following lightweight product metadata is sent to the Shop2LLM cloud search index to enable AI discovery across all connected stores:

product_id — internal product ID
title — product name
price — current price
description — short description or excerpt
image_url — main product image URL
product_url — product page URL (public)
category — product categories
brand — your site name
availability — in stock or out of stock

This data is sent when you enable Product Sync (opt-in) and then refreshed daily. All of it is already publicly visible on your website. It is used solely to make your products discoverable by ChatGPT, Claude, and other AI assistants. No customer data, no order data, no admin credentials, no PII is ever sent.

To enable, go to Settings → Shop2LLM → Product Sync and select “Enabled”. You can also use the code-based filter: add_filter('shop2llm_disable_product_sync', '__return_true'); to disable programmatically.

What data does the plugin collect and how is it used?

Shop2LLM uses a layered privacy model that complies with WordPress.org plugin guidelines:

Layer 1 — Local behavior summary (no opt-in required, never leaves your server). To improve onboarding and detect friction, the plugin records a small set of activation milestones in the shop2llm_behavior_summary WordPress option. This includes: activation timestamp, whether the Welcome Modal was shown/completed/skipped (and at which step), whether the AI connection URL was copied, whether the first inline test search was performed (and whether it returned results), whether the first AI crawler visit was detected, days since activation, and a bucketed count of dashboard visits. This data stays entirely in your database and is never transmitted anywhere. It is automatically removed on uninstall.

Layer 2 — Anonymous usage statistics (opt-in, disabled by default). When you enable Analytics in Settings (or accept the opt-in prompt shown after completing the Welcome Modal), an anonymous, bucketed behavior summary is sent to our cloud service at api.shop2llm.com alongside the existing daily heartbeat. The summary contains only these fields:

has_content — boolean (true if your site has at least one published post or product)
content_count — bucketed value: 0, 1-4, 5-20, 21-100, or 100+ (never the exact count)
welcome_shown, welcome_completed, url_copied, first_search_done, first_search_ok, first_crawler_done — booleans only
welcome_skipped_step — integer 1-3, or null
days_since_activation — integer
dashboard_visits — bucketed value: 1, 2-5, or 6+ (never the exact count)

All fields are coarsely bucketed or boolean to prevent fingerprinting. No personal data is collected — no IP addresses, no email addresses, no usernames, no customer/order/content data, no URLs of individual pages, and no exact counts that could identify a site. The site is identified only by a SHA-256 hash of its hostname.

Layer 3 — AI crawler visit reports (opt-in, included with Analytics). When Analytics is enabled, AI crawler visits are reported with the crawler type, page URL, user agent, and the anonymized site identifier.

You can enable or disable Analytics at any time in Settings → Shop2LLM → Analytics. Disabling it stops all external transmission immediately; local behavior summary continues to be stored for your own dashboard insights. See our privacy policy at https://shop2llm.com/ for details.

What’s the difference between Free and Pro?

Free supports ChatGPT with 2 AI tools (content search + detail). Pro adds 6 AI platforms, always-on cloud connection, and analytics dashboard. Upgrade at https://shop2llm.com/

Is this secure?

Yes. All AI connections require Bearer token authentication. The API key is auto-generated and can be rotated anytime.

How do I check if AI crawlers are visiting my site?

Go to Shop2LLM → Dashboard and look at the “AI Search Activity” card. It shows crawler visits and search terms in real time. You don’t need to check server logs.

I activated the plugin but no AI crawler is visiting yet. What should I check?

This is a common onboarding gap. Shop2LLM records each activation milestone locally (no PII, never leaves your server unless Analytics is on). Run the Activation Doctor diagnostic to see exactly where you are in the onboarding funnel:

Install WP-CLI on your server (most hosts provide it; if not, see https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/)
Run: wp eval-file wp-content/plugins/shop-to-llm/tools/activation-doctor.php
The script prints a funnel report: activated → welcome_shown → welcome_completed → url_copied → first_search → first_crawler_done, with timestamps and elapsed time between steps
The longest gap between two consecutive steps is your bottleneck. Common findings:
- activated → welcome_shown gap > 5 min: your admin redirects elsewhere on activation; check for conflicting redirect plugins
- welcome_completed → url_copied gap > 1 day: the AI connection URL isn’t obvious enough; re-open Shop2LLM → Dashboard and click “Copy”
- url_copied → first_search gap > 3 days: you haven’t pasted the URL into ChatGPT yet, or ChatGPT can’t reach your site (check firewall, Cloudflare Bot Fight Mode, or HTTPS cert)
- first_search → first_crawler_done gap > 7 days: GPTBot/ClaudeBot haven’t crawled you yet. Verify yoursite.com/robots.txt shows Allow: / for GPTBot and ClaudeBot. If you’re on Cloudflare, disable “AI Scrapers and Crawlers” block in Security → Bots
If you want us to take a look, enable Settings → Shop2LLM → Analytics (opt-in, anonymized, bucketed) and email the Site Hash shown at the top of the doctor report to support@shop2llm.com — we’ll diagnose and reply within 1 business day

Does this affect my site speed?

No. Shop2LLM is independently tested and A-rated by MakeWPFast.com — benchmarked across Home, Blog, and Product page contexts with overall “Low” impact. All AI features run on your server through the standard WordPress REST API. External calls (like analytics reporting) are non-blocking with 1s timeouts — they will never slow down your site.

Can I use this alongside Yoast SEO or RankMath?

Yes. Shop2LLM auto-detects SEO plugins (Yoast, Rank Math, AIOSEO, SEOPress) and automatically disables conflicting modules (meta tags, schema, sitemap, Open Graph). You keep the AI-specific features (MCP tools, llms.txt, crawler invites) plus any SEO modules the other plugin doesn’t cover. You can also one-click migrate your SEO data from Yoast or Rank Math into Shop2LLM.

How do I upgrade from Free to Pro?

Click any “Upgrade to Pro” link in the dashboard, or visit https://shop2llm.com/ — Pro unlocks 6 AI platforms, always-on cloud connection, and full analytics.

What happens if I deactivate the plugin?

Your site returns to normal. llms.txt, robots.txt AI rules, and schema markup are removed. All settings are preserved if you reactivate later. No data is lost.

Which AI platforms does the free version support?

ChatGPT (via MCP connection). Pro adds Claude, Gemini, Copilot, Meta AI, and Amazon Bedrock — with always-on cloud connection so consumers can discover your products without you connecting each AI manually.

Privacy

This plugin can optionally connect to external services provided by FinCore. All external data transmission is opt-in and disabled by default:

Analytics (Settings → Shop2LLM → Analytics) — when enabled, anonymized site metadata (hashed site identifier, platform, version numbers) and AI crawler visits (crawler type, page URL, user agent) are sent to our cloud service. This can be disabled at any time.
Product Sync (Settings → Shop2LLM → Product Sync) — when enabled, lightweight product metadata (title, price, category, image URL) is synced to the Shop2LLM cloud search index so your products appear in AI searches across all connected stores. This is disabled by default and requires explicit opt-in.

api.deepseek.com — when you use the “Ask AI” Hero Test Search, your search query and lightweight product metadata (name, price, currency, stock, rating) are sent to DeepSeek’s API to generate the AI reply. DeepSeek’s servers may be located outside your jurisdiction. No personal customer data, order information, or full product descriptions are transmitted.

No personal customer data, order information, or product data is transmitted. All external calls use HTTPS and are non-blocking (will not affect site performance if the service is unavailable).

What happens without this plugin?

Why trust Shop2LLM’s performance claims?

What does Shop2LLM actually output?

On activation, Shop2LLM immediately generates:

llms.txt — a machine-readable catalog at yoursite.com/llms.txt listing your content with titles, slugs, descriptions, and last-modified dates
LLM-friendly permalink — a clean URL AI agents use: yoursite.com/ai/v1
JSON-LD Schema — Product schema (with WooCommerce) or BlogPosting schema (standalone)
robots.txt rules — 12 AI crawler allow directives
REST API endpoint — MCP-compatible endpoint at yoursite.com/wp-json/shop2llm/v1/chat/completions

You can verify all of this immediately after activation — no configuration required.

Does this require WooCommerce?

Does this require a FinCore cloud account?

Is my content data sent to external servers?

product_id — internal product ID
title — product name
price — current price
description — short description or excerpt
image_url — main product image URL
product_url — product page URL (public)
category — product categories
brand — your site name
availability — in stock or out of stock

What data does the plugin collect and how is it used?

Shop2LLM uses a layered privacy model that complies with WordPress.org plugin guidelines:

What’s the difference between Free and Pro?

Free supports ChatGPT with 2 AI tools (content search + detail). Pro adds 6 AI platforms, always-on cloud connection, and analytics dashboard. Upgrade at https://shop2llm.com/

Is this secure?

Yes. All AI connections require Bearer token authentication. The API key is auto-generated and can be rotated anytime.

How do I check if AI crawlers are visiting my site?

Go to Shop2LLM → Dashboard and look at the “AI Search Activity” card. It shows crawler visits and search terms in real time. You don’t need to check server logs.

I activated the plugin but no AI crawler is visiting yet. What should I check?

Install WP-CLI on your server (most hosts provide it; if not, see https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/)
Run: wp eval-file wp-content/plugins/shop-to-llm/tools/activation-doctor.php
The script prints a funnel report: activated → welcome_shown → welcome_completed → url_copied → first_search → first_crawler_done, with timestamps and elapsed time between steps
The longest gap between two consecutive steps is your bottleneck. Common findings:
- activated → welcome_shown gap > 5 min: your admin redirects elsewhere on activation; check for conflicting redirect plugins
- welcome_completed → url_copied gap > 1 day: the AI connection URL isn’t obvious enough; re-open Shop2LLM → Dashboard and click “Copy”
- url_copied → first_search gap > 3 days: you haven’t pasted the URL into ChatGPT yet, or ChatGPT can’t reach your site (check firewall, Cloudflare Bot Fight Mode, or HTTPS cert)
- first_search → first_crawler_done gap > 7 days: GPTBot/ClaudeBot haven’t crawled you yet. Verify yoursite.com/robots.txt shows Allow: / for GPTBot and ClaudeBot. If you’re on Cloudflare, disable “AI Scrapers and Crawlers” block in Security → Bots
If you want us to take a look, enable Settings → Shop2LLM → Analytics (opt-in, anonymized, bucketed) and email the Site Hash shown at the top of the doctor report to support@shop2llm.com — we’ll diagnose and reply within 1 business day

Does this affect my site speed?

Can I use this alongside Yoast SEO or RankMath?

How do I upgrade from Free to Pro?

Click any “Upgrade to Pro” link in the dashboard, or visit https://shop2llm.com/ — Pro unlocks 6 AI platforms, always-on cloud connection, and full analytics.

What happens if I deactivate the plugin?

Your site returns to normal. llms.txt, robots.txt AI rules, and schema markup are removed. All settings are preserved if you reactivate later. No data is lost.
