No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price.

    The tracking shows no ai visits. I’ve tested another plugin (seoengine) and that one is tracking hundreds of ai visits. This plugin reports nothing at all.

    I understand the llms.txt protocol has not been adopted by major LLMs yet, but it seems prudent to engage with what is likely to be adopted. Practically, it’s an easy setup – no issues on 10 sites I’ve added it to. Very impressed by the speed of bug fixes and improvements by the team behind the plugin.

    I tried the simple solution of enabling LLMs.txt in YOAST since that’s my SEO plugin of choice (and has been for 10+ years). Their LLMs.txt was extremely simplified and lacked depth, listing only ~5 posts and ~5 pages. This app did a much more thorough job and was super easy to configure. Highly recommended.
