Does ChatGPT recommend your store? See your AI rank on the dashboard, count visits and WooCommerce orders from ChatGPT, and show a rank badge.

== Description ==

Shoppers now ask ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity where to buy. If the assistant names three other stores, you never get the visit. Google Search Console does not show this, and most analytics tools lump AI visits in with "referral".

Krillo AI Visibility shows you where you stand, inside WordPress.

**Your AI rank, on your dashboard**

Every month the Krillo Index asks ChatGPT and Gemini the real buying questions of each store category ("where can I buy organic baby clothes online?") and ranks the stores they name. The dashboard widget shows your rank in your category, or tells you plainly that your store is not ranked yet. No account and no setup needed.

**Visits and orders from AI assistants**

Find out how much traffic AI search really sends you. With a pixel key from a Krillo plan, the plugin counts visits that come from ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Copilot, and the WooCommerce orders that follow from those visits. No personal data is sent.

**A rank badge for your store**

Add `[krillo_badge]` to a page, widget or footer. The badge only appears when AI really names your store, and links to the public ranking, so visitors can check it.

**What this plugin does not do**

* It makes no AI calls from your site.
* It does not change your products, pages or theme.
* It does not sell positions. The index has no paid placements.

**Who it is for**

WooCommerce and WordPress store owners, and the marketing people who run their SEO, who want to know whether AI search (also called generative engine optimization, GEO, or AI SEO) is sending them customers or sending them to competitors.

Measured today: the United States, the Netherlands and Belgium, with more countries coming.

== External services ==

This plugin connects to Krillo (krilloai.com), a service for AI visibility of online stores.

* **Rank lookup.** To show your rank on the dashboard and in the badge, the plugin sends your site address (home URL) to https://krilloai.com/api/tools/index-check. This happens at most once every twelve hours, when an administrator opens the dashboard or a page with the badge is shown. No other data is sent.
* **AI visit and order counting (optional, off by default).** Only when you enter a pixel key in Settings > Krillo AI. Then, when a visitor arrives from an AI assistant, the visitor's browser sends the assistant name and your pixel key to https://krilloai.com/api/pixel. On the WooCommerce order received page it also sends the order number, total and currency. No names, email addresses, IP-based profiles or other personal data are sent by the plugin.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Do I need a Krillo account? =

No. The rank and the badge work without an account. The pixel key for counting AI visits and orders comes with a Krillo plan.

= Do I need WooCommerce? =

No. The rank and the badge work on any WordPress site. Counting orders from AI visits needs WooCommerce.

= How does Krillo know what ChatGPT says about my store? =

Every month we ask ChatGPT and Gemini the buying questions people ask in your category, many times, and count which stores they name and how often. Your rank comes from that count. You can see the questions and answers on the public ranking page.

= My store is not ranked. What now? =

Then AI did not name your store in your category yet, or we do not measure your category or country yet. The widget links to a free check that shows what AI says about your store.

= Will this slow down my site? =

The rank is cached for twelve hours. The visit counter only loads when you entered a pixel key, and it is one small script.

= Which AI assistants are counted? =

ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Copilot.

= Can I pay for a better rank? =

No. The index has no paid positions.

== Changelog ==
