WP Tasty leans into email capture and AI-scraper defense for recipe bloggers
WP Tasty ships a suite of WordPress plugins for food bloggers (Recipes, Roundups, Links, Pins). Recent releases add a Save Recipe email-capture feature to the recipe card and an AI Scraper Prevention setting, alongside routine fixes and a migration of add-ons to a new affiliate system.
RankMath is rebuilding a WordPress SEO plugin for the AI-search era — MCP tools and AI-platform visibility.
RankMath is on a fast point-release cadence, and the throughline is unmistakably AI: it launched an MCP Tools suite so AI assistants can query a site's SEO, links, and schema, added AI Visibility to monitor brand presence across major AI platforms, and keeps extending both. Interleaved are steady bug fixes across Schema, AI Link Genius, and analytics.
WP Tasty ships a suite of WordPress plugins for food bloggers (Recipes, Roundups, Links, Pins). Recent releases add a Save Recipe email-capture feature to the recipe card and an AI Scraper Prevention setting, alongside routine fixes and a migration of add-ons to a new affiliate system.
Two themes are emerging: turning the recipe card into a lead-capture surface (email-a-recipe, newsletter opt-in) and defending bloggers' content from AI crawlers. The rest of the cadence is coordinated housekeeping — moving the whole plugin family onto the new affiliate settings.
Expect the Save Recipe / newsletter capture to expand with more placement and integration options, and further creator-protection tooling as AI scraping stays a live concern.

Interleaved are steady bug fixes across Schema, AI Link Genius, and analytics.
RankMath is repositioning from classic on-page SEO toward optimizing for AI-driven discovery — making a site's data legible to AI assistants via MCP, and tracking how brands surface inside AI answers via AI Visibility. The plugin is becoming an interface between WordPress content and the LLM search layer.
Expect more MCP tools and deeper AI Visibility analytics — likely competitor and citation tracking inside AI answers, and tighter loops between AI Visibility findings and RankMath's optimization recommendations.
