About this plugin
More and more people ask ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini or Bing Copilot instead of typing keywords into Google. These assistants look for short, self-contained answers they can quote. A well-written FAQ is exactly that format.
FAQ optimized for AI gives each answer its own page, publishes structured data that describes only what visitors can see, and checks your writing while you type. No AI service is called and nothing is sent anywhere: everything runs on your site.
Answers built to be quoted
- One page per answer with its own title and address, plus an FAQ archive and category pages, created automatically.
- GEO score on the edit screen: a writing checklist (direct first sentence, length, standalone answer, question wording, figures, structure, keywords) computed on your site and updated live.
- Word counter aiming at the 130 to 170 words that AI assistants quote best.
Structured data you can trust
- FAQPage JSON-LD limited to the answers shown on the page, merged into one block and de-duplicated when several FAQ lists share a page.
- ItemList for preview lists (question + link to the answer), so the archive never claims answers it does not show.
- Works alongside Yoast SEO and Rank Math (graph integration, meta description fallback, archive title).
- Hide demo content: noindex, removal from XML sitemaps and no schema in one click.
Display FAQs anywhere
- FAQ list block for the block editor: all FAQs, the FAQs of chosen categories, or FAQs you pick and reorder, with a live preview.
- Three shortcodes ( [faqoai_list], [faqoai_by_category], [faqoai_specific] ) and a shortcode generator, for the classic editor and page builders.
- Accessible accordion (WAI-ARIA, keyboard, deep links such as #faq-123 ), one to three columns, preview or full answers.
- FAQ search on the archive: questions, answers and keywords.
- “Was this helpful?” votes, privacy-friendly (salted hash of the IP address, rate limit, automatic anonymisation), with totals in the FAQ list.
Looks right on any theme
- Classic and block themes, template overrides in your theme ( faqoai/ folder).
- Two styles, Cards and Minimal, with a live preview: accent colour, corners, open/close icon, question size, content width, sticky category navigation.
Premium version
A Premium version is available for larger and multilingual FAQs: FAQ generator, LLM export (JSON / Markdown), Polylang and WPML, live search, related FAQs, CSV import / export, searches with no result, AI crawler visits, GEO audit of every FAQ and more styles. It uses the same FAQs and settings, so nothing is lost when you switch: activating Premium deactivates the free version. The free version is complete on its own and has no limits on the number of FAQs.
Privacy
The plugin makes no external request. Votes store a salted hash of the visitor’s IP address (never the address itself), anonymised after 12 months by default. A suggested text for your privacy policy is added to Settings › Privacy.
