In short. Select an assistant source or the AI Assistants channel in Plausible, then open Entry Pages to see where those visits start.
Definition: An entry page is the page where a visit starts. As of 17 October 2026, Plausible shows entry pages for recorded AI referrals by combining an assistant source or AI Assistants channel filter with the Entry Pages report.
Key facts
- Plausible's traffic sources documentation defines AI Assistants as a channel for known assistant sources, including ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity.
- The content reports documentation describes an expanded Entry Pages report with visit duration for visits starting on each page.
- The filter documentation explains that selecting a referral source filters the dashboard to that source's traffic.
How is an assistant source selected?
Plausible's Sources tab lists referral sources, including chatgpt.com. Selecting that entry segments the audience by that source. For the broader group of recognized assistants, selecting AI Assistants in Channels opens the sources within that channel.
For a chosen set of assistants, the Filter button supports multiple sources simultaneously. Plausible's filter instructions describe choosing Source and selecting values from its list. Changes apply immediately. Active filters appear as pills showing the dimension, matching operator and selected values; clicking a pill's values edits the selection.
Where are the filtered entry pages shown?
With the source filter active, the Entry Pages tab supplies the landing-page breakdown for that audience. Plausible's content report instructions describe expanding the report using the icon at its top right to see the full list and additional details. Clicking a metric heading sorts the results in ascending or descending order.
The report groups pages by path by default. For example, /pricing combines that path across hostnames. In the report's options menu, changing Break down by from Path to URL separates pages on different hostnames. Plausible saves that preference for later dashboard visits.
How is one landing page isolated or the selection reused?
For a specific landing page, the Filter menu contains this report-filter path:
Filter > Page > Entry page
Choosing Entry page opens a value list that supports search and multiple selections. Keeping the assistant source filter active combines the landing-page selection with that source. The filter pill's operator controls matching, with choices depending on the dimension, including is and contains.
A segment is a saved set of filters. Save as segment, beside the filter pills, stores the selection. Personal segments are visible to their creator; site segments are visible to team members with dashboard access. Saved selections reopen through Filter, then Segment.

FAQ
Does this identify every visit from an assistant?
You see visits attributed to the selected sources. Plausible's traffic sources documentation explains that visits without referrer information can appear under Direct / None, leaving the assistant origin unidentified in this breakdown.
How do I remove an old filter before starting again?
You can click a filter pill's x icon to remove it. Plausible's filter documentation also lists the Esc key and the bin icon beside the pills as ways to remove all filters.
