TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for WordPress site owners who want to add AI features like chatbots, content generation, and automation without relying on a third-party SaaS subscription. It solves the problem of needing multiple separate AI tools by combining chat, content, image, training, and automation features into one plugin that connects directly to AI providers using the user's own API key.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about AI Puffer – AI Chatbot & MCP Server for Claude and ChatGPT

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
