Biggest opportunity: Add “vector search” and “semantic search” to your wp.org tags. You rank #12 and #14 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed these are the slots worth spending.

of downloads still active
At least 40 of 3.3K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median AI plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,009 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other AI plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 9 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| vector search | #12 | #22 | 0 |
| semantic search | #14 | #20 | up 1 |
| ai your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| chatgpt your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

19 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 2 listed. 17 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Estimated active installs

This was recommended to me by a friend who stumbled upon this. Really useful search plugin. You can tell a lot of thought went into improving WordPress’s default search. I’ve tried other search plugins, and most of them fail to sort and list results properly.

This was the only AI Search plugin that included options for the specific needs we had. It looks and works great, and is very flexible in what is indexed / searched.Support has been wonderful in quickly fixing the minor bugs we encountered, and with feature requests.Thank you for producing a great plugin!
