AI Title Assistant for WordPress

The ultimate WordPress plugin for generating SEO-optimized, time-aware titles using official AI models like gpt-5-chat-latest, complete with optional Web Search, caching, and robust security.

🚀 What is AI Title Assistant?

AI Title Assistant integrates OpenAI's most advanced models directly into your WordPress editor using the v1/responses API. Paste your article draft, and with a single click, receive 3 high-quality, SEO-optimized title suggestions generated by models like GPT-5 and GPT-4o.

✨ Key Features

  • Optional True Web Search: Toggle Web Search on or off per request directly in the metabox to get time-aware, relevant titles.
  • Official Next-Gen Models: Choose from the latest official models like gpt-5-chat-latest and gpt-4o.
  • Automatic Language Detection: Generates titles in the exact same language as your draft. No translation, just native-quality suggestions.
  • SEO-Optimized & Length Control: Respects your custom character limits with a hard server-side cutoff to ensure compliance.
  • Smart Caching: Prevents duplicate API calls for the same content within a 5-minute window.
  • Secure & Robust: Hardened security prevents API error leaks, and it uses wp_safe_remote_post for all API calls.
  • Clean Uninstall: Includes a proper uninstall.php to remove all options and transients from your database, supporting both single and multisite installs.
  • Click-to-Set Title: Instantly apply a suggested title to your post in both the Classic and Block editors.
  • Fully Internationalized: Ready for translation with 7 languages included.
