Assertivlogix AI Social Publisher

Assertivlogix AI Social Publisher is a powerful, lightweight WordPress plugin that automates caption generation using OpenAI’s powerful GPT models. When you publish a post, the plugin automatically drafts tailored, platform-specific captions for LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram.

Rather than posting blindly, the plugin places you in full control with a preview and edit screen directly on the post editor page. You can review, refine, and publish to each platform individually with a single click.

Features

• AI Caption Generation: Automatic generation of tailored captions for LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram using OpenAI.
• Approval-First Design: No automated sharing without your approval. Edit and approve posts individually.
• AES-256-CBC Encryption: Sensitive API credentials and platform tokens are securely encrypted at rest using your WordPress site’s unique salts (AUTH_KEY / SECURE_AUTH_KEY).
• REST API Integration: Modern, asynchronous React-friendly REST API integration for a smooth, lag-free user experience in the editor.
• Activity Logs: Built-in logging system to track successful posts, API responses, and errors.
