Deskripsyon
Dr. Speed: AI Assets Scanner debloats WordPress by automatically finding unused CSS and JavaScript on individual pages. It scans desktop and mobile pages, VERIFIES asset-unloading candidates, and prepares per-page rules to dequeue unnecessary files.
Unload files where they aren’t needed to speed up pages and reduce HTTP requests, page weight, bandwidth, and browser work. Fewer scripts and stylesheets per page means better performance and page speed. Review the results before applying rules.
Unload unused CSS and JavaScript to optimize page speed
Most WordPress sites load every plugin’s CSS and JavaScript on every page: a contact-form script on the blog, a slider stylesheet on checkout, a page-builder bundle on a plain post. AI Assets Scanner is an AI-assisted asset manager for exactly that problem. It finds the unused CSS and unused JavaScript files on each page, checks that removing them is safe, and gives you per-page dequeue rules. Applied with Code Unloader, those rules unload the files on the pages that do not need them, which is the fastest way to debloat a site and optimize CSS and JavaScript loading without touching your theme, your plugins, or the files themselves.

Recommended companion: Code Unloader
I recommend using AI Assets Scanner with Code Unloader, my free WordPress plugin for unloading CSS and JavaScript. Both plugins are developed by Dalibor Druzinec at WPservice.pro.
Code Unloader:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-unloader/
AI Assets Scanner generates the rules; Code Unloader applies them. Install Code Unloader on the scanned site for one-click Push/Sync or manual JSON import.
Use Sync to add recommendations while keeping your existing rules. Push replaces the active setup after taking a snapshot. You can undo the last Push/Sync.
What the scanner does
- Unload unused CSS and JS per page: the rules dequeue whole files where a page does not need them. Nothing is minified, rewritten, or deleted.
- Automatic discovery: choose pages, posts, and custom post types from your sitemap or database.
- Desktop and mobile scans: inspect page assets in a real browser and review page-level recommendations.
- Safe and Aggressive groups: separate assets not loaded on a page from loaded assets that passed removal checks.
- Protected assets: safeguards retain detected payment, form, anti-spam, analytics, and WordPress core assets and report what was kept.
- Optimizer awareness: detect supported tools such as WP Rocket, FlyingPress, LiteSpeed Cache, Autoptimize and Perfmatters, and report scan bypass status.
- History and exports: review credit usage, re-download JSON rules, and export scan history to ZIP.
- Access guidance: configure Cloudflare/firewall access or HTTP Basic Auth for protected staging pages.
Free plugin, credit-based scanning service
The plugin is free; browser scans run on the paid WPservice.pro service. An API key and credits are required. New sites can request free starter credits in Settings.
A billable page scan costs one credit. Extra Time (ET) can add one credit when the extended scan runs. Results show credits used and returned. See the official homepage for current packs.
The scanner does not add scripts or styles to ordinary visitor requests. Its frontend scan helpers run only for requests with a valid one-time scan token.
Help and support
Support is handled on the WordPress.org forum. For setup or scanning issues, include your plugin version, scan ID, and the displayed error:

External services
This plugin connects to two services run by WPservice.pro. Nothing is sent until you either save an API key or click Validate your key in Settings.
wpservice.pro API (https://wpservice.pro/wp-json/cu-scanner/v1/) handles accounts and credits.
- When you click Validate your key: your site’s domain and the plugin version, to create a free API key (first install) or restore this site’s existing one.
- When you save or refresh your key: the API key and your site’s domain, to check the key and read your credit balance.
- When you start a scan: the number of pages, your domain, and the API key, to reserve credits. Credits are charged or returned when the scan ends.
- During a scan: status events tied to the scan ID, so the scan can be billed and supported. They contain the names of caching or optimization plugins detected on your site, whether each was paused for the scan, and hashed (unreadable) page paths.
- If someone requests your site with an invalid scan token: one security event with a hashed IP address, user agent, and path, sent at most once every 10 minutes.
Scanning worker (a server address given by the wpservice.pro API) renders your pages.
- When you start a scan: the page URLs, your API key, a one-time scan token, the scanner secret the plugin generates for CDN rules, a summary of detected caching or optimization plugins, and the plugin version. If you entered an HTTP Basic Auth login for a staging site in Settings, that login is sent too, so the worker can open protected pages.
- The worker then loads those pages from your site in a headless browser, the same way a visitor would.
The Buy credits button opens wpservice.pro with your free key and domain in the address, so the purchase is linked to your site.

FAQ
-
How do I dequeue unused CSS and JavaScript in WordPress?
-
Run a scan, review the Safe and Aggressive recommendations, then apply them: with Code Unloader installed, click Sync with Code Unloader or Push to Code Unloader; without it, download the JSON rules and import them into your asset manager. The rules dequeue the listed files only on the pages where they are not needed.
-
Does AI Assets Scanner unload CSS and JavaScript by itself?
-
Scans generate recommendations without applying changes. You can inspect results without Code Unloader; install it on the scanned site to apply rules with Push/Sync or import the exported JSON. Unloading stops files from loading on selected pages; it does not delete them.
-
What is the difference between Safe and Aggressive rules?
-
Safe rules target assets not loaded on the scanned page. Aggressive rules target loaded assets that passed the scanner’s removal checks. Automated checks cannot cover every interaction or visitor state, so review the rules and test your pages after applying them.
-
Is this the same as remove unused CSS, caching, or minification?
-
No. AI Assets Scanner targets whole files on specific pages. It complements caching, minification, and remove-unused-CSS tools that reduce selectors inside stylesheets. It does not disable entire plugins.
-
Can I optimize CSS and JavaScript loading without minifying?
-
Yes. Unloading whole files on the pages that do not use them removes their requests entirely, which minification and combining cannot do. Both can be used together: unload what a page never needs, then minify what remains.
-
Will this speed up my site and improve PageSpeed or Core Web Vitals?
-
Unloading unnecessary assets can improve frontend performance. Results depend on your theme, plugins, and other bottlenecks. Compare before-and-after tests; no particular PageSpeed or Core Web Vitals result is guaranteed.
-
My site is behind Cloudflare. Will scans be blocked?
-
A firewall or rate limit can block scans. Settings provides guidance and a Cloudflare WAF rule using a site-specific scanner header. Review access warnings before relying on an incomplete result.
-
What is removed when I delete the plugin?
-
The plugin’s options, scan history, stored results, scheduled tasks, and saved API key are removed from WordPress. Export your history first if you want to keep it.
-
I installed AI Assets Scanner from wpservice.pro before it was on WordPress.org. How do I switch?
-
The WordPress.org edition lives in a different plugin folder, so WordPress sees it as a new plugin. Switch in this order:
- If you want to keep your scan history, open Scan History and click Export to ZIP.
- Deactivate the old AI Assets Scanner. Do not delete it yet.
- Install and activate Dr. Speed: AI Assets Scanner from Plugins > Add New. Your API key, credits, and settings carry over.
- Remove the old plugin’s folder,
wp-content/plugins/ai-assets-scanner, with FTP or your host’s file manager. Do not use the Delete link: the old version’s delete routine erases the scanner secret, worker address, and scan history that the new plugin now uses.
-
I deleted and reinstalled the plugin. Where is my key?
-
Deleting the plugin removes the saved key from your site, but the key and its credits stay on wpservice.pro. Open Settings and click Validate your key: the same key comes back with its remaining credits. Deactivating the plugin does not remove the key.
