Manage your site from ChatGPT or Claude (MCP)
Open Settings → Connections → Manage my website to connect ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Claude Code or another MCP client. Assistants can read and search content, create drafts and publish posts. Standard asks for WordPress approval before publishing or supported plugin changes. Trusted is the default for new connections and runs supported changes directly, including publication, plugin changes and deletion. Existing Trusted connections keep their previous approvals until you select Trusted again in Settings. The available actions depend on the site’s installed plugins and the permissions you grant. Access follows the connecting WordPress user’s permissions and can be paused or disconnected. Website actions are counted separately from AI credits; your assistant’s own subscription or model charges are separate. This feature is off until you explicitly connect it.
Supported WP-CLI-compatible commands let assistants inspect the site and manage posts, images, categories, tags, comments, classic navigation menus, settings, users, roles, cache and scheduled events without SSH or a WP-CLI installation. Official plugin/theme/core administration and bounded database inspection/search-replace commands are included. Ask your assistant for wp help to see the supported subset and flags. Commands use the same permissions, approval settings and website-action allowance as other website tools; shell scripts and full WP-CLI compatibility are not included.
Cloud or your own API keys
AI Puffer Cloud: connect in the setup wizard or Settings → AI. Supported models cover text, image generation and analysis, speech, transcription and embeddings. Credit use varies by model and request size, with a minimum per text request. One credit is not always one message, article or image. Image editing, video, realtime voice and web search currently require your own supported provider key.
Your own API keys: your site sends requests to the provider you choose, which bills your provider account. OpenAI-compatible endpoints are supported too. Use Cloud and your own keys side by side, with a model picker for each chatbot, form, task or tool.
This edition includes the following core modules without a paid license. AI requests use your own provider account or AI Puffer Cloud credits. Website management is optional and includes 2,000 monthly website actions on the Free allowance, shared across your connected sites and assistants.
AI chatbot that answers from your content
Create unlimited chatbots with their own models, instructions, colors, welcome messages and conversation starters. Use posts, pages, products and FAQs as knowledge. Show a bot as a popup, site-wide, or with a block or shortcode. Voice input, read-aloud replies and image input work with supported models. Web search and Google Search grounding require your own supported provider key.
AI content writer and Content Assistant
Draft posts from topics and keywords, one at a time or from a batch or CSV list. Use reusable prompt templates, choose draft or publish status, and add featured or inline images from AI providers or stock photos. Start from Posts → Generate New Post.
Write Gutenberg-ready content, with meta descriptions and focus keywords where supported by Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO or The SEO Framework. The Content Assistant improves titles, excerpts, content and tags in the block editor, classic editor and post lists.
Automations: scheduled content and auto blogging
Create recurring or one-time automation tasks from topics or CSV, with draft, schedule or publish options. Reply to comments with replies held for approval by default, or add new posts to your knowledge base using category filters. Review item status in the queue. Server cron is supported when WP-Cron is disabled.
AI forms
Build forms with a drag-and-drop editor, templates and prompts that use visitors’ field values. Choose a model and knowledge base for each form, and enable web search with your own supported key. Embed with a block or shortcode, and import or export forms.
AI image generator
Enable Images in Settings → Modules. Generate images with OpenAI GPT Image, Gemini image models, Grok Imagine, Replicate, OpenRouter, Azure or Cloud. Image editing works with supported providers and models. Google Veo video needs your own Google key. Search stock photos from Pexels and Pixabay, or embed a visitor image generator with a block or shortcode. These tools are included in the free plugin; provider accounts or Cloud credits cover AI usage.
Knowledge base and semantic search
AI Puffer splits content into passages and retrieves relevant passages for a question. It does not train a new AI model.
Index posts, pages, products, custom post types, Q&A pairs and pasted text, including page-builder content. Use “Add to knowledge base” from post lists or embed semantic search on your site. Choose Local storage in your WordPress database, OpenAI vector stores, Google File Search, Pinecone, Qdrant or Chroma. External stores and embeddings require compatible provider connections.
WooCommerce product tools and visitor credits
Improve product titles, descriptions, short descriptions and tags with the Content Assistant; answer questions from product pages; and sell visitor credit packages for your chatbots, forms and image generator. Visitor credits are balances managed on your site, separate from AI Puffer Cloud credits. WooCommerce is optional.
Usage, permissions and integrations
Set guest, user and role limits with daily, weekly, monthly or no reset. Review conversation and usage logs, credit balances and access through the Role Manager. Word and IP blocklists, IP anonymization and optional moderation help manage requests.
Use the REST API, signed event webhooks, three blocks and five shortcodes. WordPress AI Connectors are opt-in and let compatible built-in AI features use your configured providers.
Optional upgrades
The free plugin works on its own. Paid subscriptions add:
File sources and uploads for knowledge bases, chatbots and forms.
RSS, URL and Google Sheets content sources, scheduled post improvements and Smart SEO tools.
Realtime voice, advanced chatbot triggers, external chatbot embeds, multi-step forms and PDF exports.
See the feature comparison and current plans for the full list. All subscription tiers unlock the same additional plugin features; their monthly allowances differ.
Supported providers
AI Puffer Cloud: available models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and others, using AI credits.
OpenAI: GPT text models, GPT Image, speech, transcription and embeddings.
Anthropic: Claude Sonnet, Opus and Haiku.
Google: Gemini text and image models, Veo, speech and embeddings.
Media services: ElevenLabs voices, Replicate images, and Pexels and Pixabay stock photos.
Models and capabilities depend on the selected provider and its current catalog.
Privacy and data flow
AI requests are sent when you use a connected provider. Visitor messages go to the provider selected for that chatbot. Chat logs, usage records and Local knowledge are stored in your WordPress database. Text you index is processed by the chosen embedding provider and, with an external store, stored there. The External services section below explains connection, licensing and diagnostic requests and links each service’s terms and privacy policy.
External services
The plugin contacts external services when you connect or use them, manage licensing or checkout, or submit optional deactivation feedback. Cloud setup and connection diagnostics are sent after you accept the Cloud connection terms and click Connect. An AI request contains what the feature needs: the prompt and instructions, chat or form input with recent conversation history, the content being written or improved, text you add to a knowledge base, images or audio you submit, and model settings. Each API key goes only to its own provider.
AI Puffer Cloud (puffercloud.dev, about Cloud ), the optional hosted AI service run by the AI Puffer team.
Connecting happens only after an administrator accepts the connection terms and clicks Connect. It sends the site’s Freemius install ID, the site address, a signed proof of the installation and the attempt’s support reference.
Using its models sends the request content and model settings. Cloud passes each request to the AI service behind the chosen model (such as OpenAI, Anthropic or Google), through service providers such as OpenRouter where applicable, and returns the result and the credits used. Balance, model, checkout and disconnect requests send the site address and its Cloud credential; deleting the plugin also disconnects the site. While connected, the setup wizard sends your setup choices and completed steps.
Connection diagnostics: each Connect attempt, including one that fails before account registration, sends its outcome, the step reached, error codes, safe network failure details, HTTP status, timing, software versions and a random support reference. Once an installation identity is available, the report also includes its site address and installation ID as unverified troubleshooting context. Your browser sends the report, so Cloud also sees t

Frequently asked questions.
How do ChatGPT and Claude manage my site?
Connect them in Settings → Connections → Manage my website. Through MCP they can read and search content, create drafts and publish posts. Standard asks for WordPress approval before publishing or supported plugin changes. New connections default to Trusted, which runs supported changes directly, including deletion. Existing Trusted connections keep their previous approvals until you select Trusted again in Settings. You can pause or disconnect access anytime. The chatbot, content writer, automations, forms and images work as before, with or without this connection.
Do I need an API key?
Not if you use AI Puffer Cloud. Connect it in the setup wizard or in AI Puffer → Settings → AI, accept the connection terms and confirm your email. Eligible accounts get 25 free AI credits monthly. If you already pay for an AI provider such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google or xAI, paste that key instead. You can use both side by side.
What do the free Cloud credits include?
Eligible accounts with a verified email get 25 free AI credits monthly. Connecting registers your site through Freemius, which handles the account and the confirmation email.
Credits pay for requests: text, image generation and analysis, speech, transcription and embeddings. The cost depends on the model and the size of the request, with a minimum per text request, so one credit is not one message, article or image.
Free credits reset each month and do not roll over. Purchased top-ups do not expire and are shared by the sites on your account. The allowance depends on eligibility and on the program being available, and Usage shows your balance and status. When credits run out, those requests stop until the allowance renews or you add credits. Providers you connect with your own key keep working.
What is included without a paid license?
Chatbots, content writing, topic/CSV automations, AI Forms, images, knowledge storage, website management, usage controls and developer integrations are included in the free plugin. AI provider charges are separate; use your own keys or Cloud credits. Some capabilities, such as web search or image editing, require a compatible provider and model.
Optional upgrades are summarized above. Visit the pricing page for the full comparison and subscription allowances. Cloud allowances are shared across an account’s sites, not multiplied by the number of licensed sites. Monthly allowances do not roll over; purchased AI credits do not expire. Existing lifetime licenses keep their plugin access but do not include paid subscription allowances.
Can I use OpenAI, Claude, Gemini or Grok models?
Yes. Add your own key for OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), Google (Gemini) or xAI (Grok), or pick OpenAI, Anthropic and Google models on Cloud. DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Azure OpenAI and OpenAI-compatible endpoints work too. Pick the model for each chatbot, form, task or tool.
Does the chatbot answer only from my content?
It answers from your content when it finds a good match, but it is not limited to it. With a knowledge base connected, the plugin looks up the passages that best match each question (a confidence threshold sets how close a match must be) and sends them to the AI model with the question and your instructions. The model can still use its general knowledge or make mistakes. Tell it in the instructions what to do when your content has no answer, for example “Say you don’t know and suggest contacting us”, and test it with real questions before you go live.
How is my data handled in Cloud mode vs own-key mode?
With your own key, requests go straight from your server to the provider you chose, under your account with that provider. They do not pass through AI Puffer Cloud. In Cloud mode, requests (prompts, messages, the content, images or audio you submit, and model settings) go to Cloud, which passes them to the AI service behind the selected model (through service providers such as OpenRouter where applicable) and records the credits used. Cloud’s billing records hold usage and credit data, not full conversations. In both modes, chat logs, usage records and Local knowledge stay in your WordPress database. The External services section lists what each service receives and links its terms and privacy policy.
Does it work with WooCommerce?
Yes, and WooCommerce is optional. You can write product titles, descriptions, short descriptions and tags with the Content Assistant, let the chatbot answer from your products, and sell AI credit packages to visitors through your WooCommerce checkout.
Is this the same plugin as AI Power?
Yes. AI Power was renamed AI Puffer. It is the same plugin, with the same plugin folder, settings and data, so updating keeps your bots, content, keys and history. The new listing name says what it does: AI chatbot, AI writer and automation.
