LinkTiller review
A free, self-hosted WordPress plugin for reviewing AI-assisted internal link insertions.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
LinkTiller is a self-hosted WordPress plugin for admins who want to find content without incoming internal links and review contextual opportunities before adding links. It scans published posts and pages without changing them, then uses an administrator-configured AI endpoint to suggest source passages and target pages. Each insertion requires approval, so it suits solo and small-site admins who prefer editorial control over automatic linking.
Its workflow is deliberately review-led. LinkTiller validates anchor phrases against existing source content and suggested targets against site posts, while rejecting already-linked or duplicate targets. After an approved insertion, undo restores the previously saved content. This combination makes the plugin a fit for maintaining link structure without handing insertion decisions to an automated process. The tradeoff is that every link needs separate attention; admins seeking automatic or bulk linking should look elsewhere.
LinkTiller is free and open source. The Free plan includes the full 1–10 suggestion range, safe insertion and undo; the chosen AI provider may charge separately. Endpoint options include OpenAI-compatible services, LM Studio and Ollama, giving admins a choice between a configured API and a local endpoint. That flexibility also means the AI connection must be configured by the user. Choose LinkTiller if a free WordPress tool with AI-assisted suggestions and administrator approval matches your workflow; avoid it if you need automatic or bulk link changes.
