CanItBuy Agent Ready Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
Shoppers now ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude or Gemini what to buy, and some let an AI agent go to the store and add the product to the cart. CanItBuy Agent Ready shows what happens in your WooCommerce store when they do, and what to fix.
AI agent visits. Counts visits from AI agents and crawlers that say who they are: ChatGPT agent (signed requests), ChatGPT-User, OAI-SearchBot, GPTBot, Claude-User, Claude-SearchBot, ClaudeBot, Perplexity, Meta, Amazon and more. You see which agents read product pages and which reach the cart and checkout. Visits are counted per day, without IP addresses, and ordinary visitors are never recorded.
Signed agents, confirmed. Agents such as ChatGPT agent sign their requests with a public key (Web Bot Auth, HTTP Message Signatures). Turn on “Check agent signatures” and the plugin confirms each signature, so you can tell real agents from visitors that only borrow their name. Off by default.
Agent journeys. Follows declared shopping agents, such as ChatGPT agent, from the first product they put in the cart to the order: how far each one got, what was in its cart, where it stopped and the last message your store showed it (“Please choose product options”, “Billing Phone is a required field”). You see the value left in carts that did not become orders, and the store messages that stop agents most often.
Rules for AI agents. Decide what agents may do: stop visitors that use an agent’s name with a wrong signature, let only agents with a confirmed signature check out, or let agents fill the cart while the person places the order. Off by default; nothing changes for people.
Compared with other stores (optional). Join the CanItBuy store network and see how your store compares with other WooCommerce stores: AI agent visits, shopping agents that reach checkout, the share of orders from AI assistants, catalog readiness and what stops agents most often. Off until you click “Join and compare”; before that you see exactly what would be shared. Once a week the plugin sends last week’s totals with a random id instead of your store address, and never anything about visitors or customers, product names, prices or order amounts. Comparisons appear when at least 5 stores share the same week, and leaving deletes everything your store sent.
Sales from AI. Sums the orders that AI assistants sent to you, using WooCommerce order attribution (chatgpt.com, perplexity.ai, claude.ai, gemini.google.com, copilot and others), and marks orders placed by an AI agent itself.
Catalog audit. Checks every product and variation for what an agent needs to recommend it and buy the right variant: price, variations with an “Any” attribute, GTIN / EAN with check digit validation, image, description, SKU, brand and category. Each issue says what it costs you and how to fix it. Export the list to CSV for your team.
Feed vs store. Compares your Google Merchant Center feed (RSS or Atom) or Ceneo XML with the store: price, availability, GTIN and currency, plus products in stock that the feed leaves out.
Page and robots.txt. Reads robots.txt the way AI bots do and shows which of them may read your home page and product pages. Fetches a few product pages and compares the product data on the page (JSON-LD) with WooCommerce, to catch stale caches and plugins that output a second, different price.
Fixes, off until you turn them on.
- Add the GTIN from WooCommerce or popular EAN plugins to product data.
- Add the brand from WooCommerce Brands or a brand attribute.
- Add your return window and delivery cost and time to every offer.
- Let AI search and assistant bots read products when robots.txt shuts them out, keeping your other rules and never touching bots you named yourself.
The plugin is in English and ready for translation on translate.wordpress.org.

Privacy
- Only declared AI agents and crawlers are counted, as daily totals per agent and store area, with the page path but without the query string, IP address or any visitor identifier.
- For declared shopping agents the plugin keeps a short journey: the agent’s name, the time, how far it got (cart, checkout, order), the number of items and the cart value, the last page path and the last message the store showed it, with e-mail addresses and long numbers masked. No IP address and no customer data. The journey is linked through the cart session WooCommerce already uses; the plugin sets no cookie of its own. Journeys are deleted after 180 days.
- Orders placed by an AI agent get a private order note with the agent’s name (for example “chatgpt-agent”).
- Unless you join the store network, nothing is sent to CanItBuy or anyone else. The page, robots.txt and feed checks are requests from your server to your own store or to the feed address you enter, made only when you click.
- If you join the store network, the plugin sends canitbuy.com last week’s totals once a week (see External services). The report carries a random id, not your store address, and contains no data about visitors or customers, no product names, prices or order amounts and no text of store messages. Leaving the network deletes every report your store sent.
- With “Check agent signatures” on, your server downloads the public key of an agent that signs its request, at most once a day per agent. No store or visitor data is sent.
External services
With its default settings the plugin does not call external services on its own.
- Key directories of signing AI agents (optional, off by default). When you turn on “Check agent signatures” and an AI agent sends a signed request, the plugin downloads that agent’s public key from the address named in the request’s Signature-Agent header (for example https://chatgpt.com/.well-known/http-message-signatures-directory), at most once a day per agent and at most 20 new addresses an hour. No store or visitor data is sent apart from a standard HTTP request. The key belongs to the agent’s operator; for ChatGPT agent that is OpenAI: Terms of use, Privacy policy.
- canitbuy.com store network (optional, off by default). Only after you click “Join and compare” under WooCommerce > CanItBuy > Other stores, the plugin sends last week’s totals to https://canitbuy.com/api/sensor once a week and receives the combined numbers of all stores in return. What is sent: AI agent visits per agent and store area; how many shopping agent journeys reached the cart, checkout and an order, and the kind of message that stopped them; the share of orders referred by AI assistants and the number placed by agents; results of your last catalog, page and feed checks as percentages; country, currency, language, catalog size as a range, WordPress, WooCommerce and plugin versions; which of the plugin’s options are on; and a random id. The request uses the plugin’s own user agent, without your site address. The exact report is shown on the Other stores screen. “Leave the network” deletes everything your store sent. Reports are kept for 26 weeks. Terms, Privacy policy.
- Your product feed. When you click “Check feed”, the plugin downloads the feed from the address you enter. Usually that is your own store. No data is sent apart from a standard HTTP request.
- canitbuy.com. The “Test with a real AI agent” button is a link that opens canitbuy.com in your browser with your store’s domain filled in. Nothing is sent until you start a test there. Terms, Privacy policy.
