SiteAssist AI Editorial Planner

SiteAssist AI Editorial Planner helps WordPress site owners build a structured publishing plan and generate AI-assisted blog articles using their own OpenAI API key.

The plugin can scan existing site content, build a brand profile, suggest article topics, organize them into a calendar, generate draft or published articles, create featured images, and estimate OpenAI API costs before content is generated.

Major capabilities include:

• Site scan and content inventory for topic planning.
• Brand profile generation and editing.
• Publishing plan controls for frequency, article length, writing style, author, and category.
• Editorial calendar with calendar and list views.
• AI-assisted topic generation.
• Article generation and post status handling.
• Basic contextual internal linking controls.
• Basic AI featured image generation.
• Monthly API cost estimate and tracked usage summary.
• Support for sites protected by HTTP Basic Authentication during scans.

This plugin requires an OpenAI API key. OpenAI API usage is billed separately by OpenAI based on the prompts, tokens, and image generation settings used.

The WordPress.org plugin includes the core planning, calendar, article generation, and basic featured image workflow.

An optional separately distributed advanced version is available for teams that need deeper editorial workflows, including SEO campaign planning, editorial review tools, automation workflows, advanced image controls, and client review/approval tools.

External Services

SiteAssist AI Editorial Planner connects to external services only when a site administrator uses features that require them.

OpenAI

The plugin connects to the OpenAI API at https://api.openai.com when a site administrator generates or reviews content, such as brand profiles, topic ideas, article drafts, article improvements, or AI-generated images. Depending on the feature being used, requests may include site scan summaries, brand profile details, article topics, selected settings, article draft content, internal-link candidates, image prompts, and related generation context. The plugin uses the OpenAI API key saved by the site administrator, and OpenAI API usage is billed separately by OpenAI.
