SummarAIze is a free WordPress plugin that generates editable key takeaways for posts and pages using your own OpenAI or Google Gemini API key.
This plugin does not bundle AI credits or route requests through a hosted SummarAIze service. You connect your own provider account, choose the model, and control the cost.
SummarAIze is built for publishers who want a lightweight summary workflow:
- Bring your own OpenAI or Google Gemini API key
- Choose supported OpenAI models including GPT-5.5, GPT-5, GPT-5 mini, and GPT-5 nano
- Generate the top 5 key takeaways for posts and pages
- Edit and reorder takeaway points before publishing
- Track whether summaries are missing, current, stale, or manually edited
- Generate missing summaries in bulk and optionally auto-generate on first publish
- Display summaries above content, below content, or in a popup
- Customize output with shortcode attributes for title, mode, list type, and popup button styling
- Use the plugin for free, with API usage billed only by your chosen provider
Privacy
SummarAIze sends post content to the AI provider you configure so it can generate takeaways. The plugin does not proxy requests through a third-party SummarAIze service.
