External Services

This plugin relies on the following third-party services for its functionality:

OpenAI API

This plugin sends product/category data (title, price, SKU, categories, attributes) to the OpenAI API to generate AI-powered descriptions. API calls are made only when the user explicitly triggers content generation through the bulk actions interface or settings page.

Unsplash API

When image integration is enabled and Unsplash is selected as the image source, the plugin searches for stock images using keywords derived from product/category titles. Images are downloaded to the WordPress Media Library.

Pexels API

When image integration is enabled and Pexels is selected as the image source, the plugin searches for stock images using keywords derived from product/category titles. Images are downloaded to the WordPress Media Library.

Freepik API

When image integration is enabled and Freepik is selected as the image source, the plugin connects to the Freepik API to search for and download premium stock images. Images are downloaded to the WordPress Media Library. Requires a Freepik API key provided by the user.

  1. Upload the plugin folder to /wp-content/plugins/
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. Go to WooCommerce > AI Descriptions
  4. Enter your OpenAI API key
  5. Customize prompts and image settings
  6. Start generating descriptions!
Do I need an OpenAI API key?

Yes, the plugin uses OpenAI’s API for content generation. Get your key from platform.openai.com. OpenAI charges based on usage.

How much does it cost to generate descriptions?

Costs depend on the OpenAI model. GPT-4.1-nano is cheapest. Typically, 100 product descriptions cost $1-5 depending on length and model.

Will it work with my language?

Yes! Write your prompts in your desired language, and the AI will respond in that language.

What happens to my original descriptions?

Original content is automatically backed up before generation. Restore anytime with one click.

Can I use my own product images?

Yes! Choose “Product/Category Gallery” as image source to use existing images. Hybrid mode combines gallery images with stock photos.

Is it compatible with page builders?

Yes, generated content is standard HTML compatible with Elementor, Divi, and all themes.
