LinkTiller: AI Internal Linking

Description

LinkTiller scans published posts and pages, builds an internal-link graph, and brings content with no incoming internal links to the top. Scanning is read-only. When an administrator asks for suggestions, LinkTiller sends a limited source excerpt and a list of real candidate posts to the configured AI endpoint.

The model proposes; LinkTiller verifies; you decide. A post changes only after you approve a specific suggestion.

Suggestions are constrained before you see them:

• Anchor phrases must be copied verbatim from the source content.
• Targets must be real posts from the scanned site.
• Existing links and duplicate targets are rejected.
• Every insertion requires a separate administrator click.
• DOM-safe insertion skips text already inside a link.
• Undo restores the exact content saved before the first LinkTiller insertion.

Bring your own endpoint

LinkTiller has no preset remote endpoint. Configure OpenAI or another OpenAI-compatible provider using your own API key and model name, or use a local endpoint such as LM Studio or Ollama.

LinkTiller does not proxy AI requests through Sai Studios and does not include an API key. Provider charges, retention, and privacy terms depend on the endpoint you choose.

Focused by design

LinkTiller does not bulk-edit posts, rewrite links on the public site, crawl for broken links, or promise search-ranking changes. It focuses on one reviewable workflow: scan, request suggestions, insert one approved link, and undo when needed.

External services

LinkTiller contacts an AI service only after an administrator configures an endpoint and clicks “Review link suggestions.”

For each suggestion request, the plugin sends:

• The source post title.
• Up to 4,000 characters of plain-text source content.
• Up to 40 candidate post URLs, titles, short excerpts, and orphan status.
• The model name configured in LinkTiller settings.

If an API key is configured, it is sent in the Authorization header to that endpoint. The key is stored in the site’s WordPress options table. It is never sent to Sai Studios.

If you configure OpenAI (https://api.openai.com/v1), use of that endpoint is governed by OpenAI’s policies:

• Service agreement: https://openai.com/policies/services-agreement/
• Privacy and data information: https://openai.com/policies/

If you replace the Base URL, the selected provider’s terms and privacy policy apply. A local LM Studio or Ollama endpoint can keep the request on the machine hosting that endpoint, depending on your network configuration.
