Description
AI 404 Redirect uses artificial intelligence to intelligently redirect users when they encounter 404 errors on your WordPress site. Instead of showing a generic 404 page, the plugin analyzes the requested URL and finds the most relevant existing content to redirect users to.
Key Features:
- AI-Powered Matching: Uses advanced AI to understand the context and intent of broken URLs
- Smart Content Discovery: Automatically analyzes all your posts, pages, categories, and tags
- Manual Override System: Create custom redirects for specific URLs when needed
- Comprehensive Analytics: Track 404 hits, redirect performance, and user behavior
- SEO Friendly: Maintains proper HTTP status codes (301/302) for search engines
- Conflict Detection: Automatically detects and warns about conflicting redirect plugins
- Easy Management: User-friendly admin interface for monitoring and managing redirects
How It Works:
- When a user hits a 404 page, the plugin captures the broken URL
- AI analyzes the URL context against your site’s available content
- The system finds the most relevant match from your posts, pages, and archives
- Users are seamlessly redirected to the best matching content
- All redirects are logged for analysis and optimization
Perfect For:
- Sites with changed URL structures
- Migrated content or restructured websites
- Improving user experience and reducing bounce rates
- Maintaining SEO value from broken links
- E-commerce sites with product URL changes
Third-Party Services

Pollinations.ai API Service:
* Service: Pollinations.ai text generation API
* Endpoint: https://text.pollinations.ai/openai
* Purpose: AI analysis of broken URLs to find the most relevant matching content from your site
* When data is sent: Only when a 404 error occurs and the plugin needs to find a matching redirect
* Data transmitted:
– The requested URL path that resulted in a 404 error
– A list of available routes (URLs) from your WordPress site (posts, pages, categories, tags)
– No personal information, user data, IP addresses, or sensitive information is sent
