Plume AI – Write and Design

Plume AI brings an AI writing and design assistant into your WordPress dashboard and block editor. Draft posts, polish copy, write SEO metadata and create featured images without leaving WordPress or copying text between tabs.

Chat, the Post generator and AI SEO work out of the box with no API key. Or connect your own Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini or self-hosted Ollama account. AI images use your own OpenAI or Google Gemini key.

What you can do

• Chat assistant: brainstorm, research and rewrite in a conversation that can read your posts and search your content.
• Post generator: describe a post, pick a tone and length, and get a full draft ready to edit.
• Editor sidebar: chat about the post you are editing, rewrite, shorten or expand a block, and check a quick SEO checklist without leaving the block editor.
• AI SEO: generate meta titles, meta descriptions, excerpts and image alt text from one overview of all your posts.
• AI images: create a featured image from a text prompt and set it in one click (needs your own OpenAI or Gemini API key).
• Usage dashboard: see how many credits you have used this month.

Plans

Every feature works on every plan. Nothing is locked. Plans differ only in monthly credits and which models the managed service offers. AI images always use your own OpenAI or Gemini key, on any plan.

• Free: 100 credits a month on fast, efficient models such as Claude Haiku 4.5 and GPT-4.1 nano.
• Pro Managed ($79/year, or billed monthly): 500 credits a month plus larger models such as Claude Sonnet 4.6, Claude Opus 4.6 and GPT-4.1.
• Your own API key (free, any plan): requests go straight to your provider with no credit limit. You pay your provider directly. Ollama runs on your own server at no cost.

Privacy first

• Your own API keys are stored encrypted (AES-256-CBC) and only ever sent to the provider that issued them.
• Chat history stays in your WordPress database.
• No tracking, cookies or analytics.

External services

Plume AI connects to the following services. Nothing is sent until you use an AI feature or finish the setup wizard.

Plume managed service (plume-proxy.plumewp.workers.dev). Used for Chat, the Post generator and AI SEO when no API key of your own is set. The first time you use one of these (or finish the setup wizard with the managed option), it receives your site URL to register the site and assign its plan. With each request, it receives your prompt and the content you send, forwards it to the AI provider for the model you chose and returns the response. Message content is not stored beyond the request. Terms, Privacy policy.

Anthropic (Claude): receives your prompts and content when you use a Claude model, directly with your own key or through the managed service. Terms, Privacy policy.

OpenAI: receives your prompts and content when you use an OpenAI model, and your image prompts when OpenAI is your image provider (sent directly with your own key). Terms, Privacy policy.

Google Gemini: receives your prompts and content when you use a Gemini model, and your image prompts when Gemini is your image provider (sent directly with your own key). Terms, Privacy policy.

Lemon Squeezy: handles Pro checkout and payments. You only reach it by clicking an upgrade link, and payment details are never stored by the plugin. Terms, Privacy policy.

Ollama runs on infrastructure you control (default http://localhost:11434). No data leaves your network unless you point it at a remote server.
