Most AI writing plugins sell you credits. You pay them, they pay an AI company, and your content passes through their servers on the way. The AI Writer in Impex Rank SEO works the other way round: you paste in your own key from Google Gemini, Groq, OpenRouter, OpenAI or Anthropic, and your WordPress site talks to that provider directly. We are not in the middle.
It turns a topic into a structured, SEO-ready draft, with the title, meta description, focus keyword and FAQ schema already filled in. It is built into the free plugin on WordPress.org.

Bring your own key: why it matters
- You pay the provider, not us. Whatever your provider charges is what it costs, with no reseller margin on top. Some providers offer free tiers; check their current limits.
- Your content goes to one place. The prompt travels from your site to the provider you picked. The free plugin makes no connection to wprank.in at all.
- You choose the model. Use a fast, cheap model for first drafts or a stronger one for important pages, and switch whenever you like. Any OpenAI-compatible endpoint works too.
- Test before you write. The Test connection button on the AI Providers screen confirms the key and model work before you spend a generation.
What a generated draft includes
Under AI Writer → Content & Defaults you decide how posts are written:
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Length, tone, point of view | Shapes the writing style of every draft |
| Language | Writes in the language you name, for example Hindi |
| Key takeaways box | A short summary block near the top |
| Comparison table | A table where the topic suits one |
| Add an FAQ | Questions and answers in the post, also written to FAQPage schema |
| Link to related posts | Internal links to genuinely related content on your site |
| Table of contents | Prepended to the post |
| Closing call to action | Your own heading, text, button label and URL |
| Sync SEO meta | Fills the SEO title, meta description and focus keyword |
Then on Generate Post, enter a topic, optionally a focus keyword (or let the AI pick one), and choose Draft, Published or Scheduled (1 hour out). We recommend Draft. The post opens in the normal editor with the live content analyser already scoring it.
Free and Pro, plainly

Pro is a separate add-on you buy once on the pricing page (Lifetime plan, paid in INR) or by quote for agencies on the Custom plan. It never takes anything away from the free plugin. More detail on the Pro page.
Use it like a writer, not a printing press
An AI draft is a starting point. Before you publish:
- Check every fact, number and name. Models state wrong things confidently.
- Add what only you know. Your prices, your process, a photo from your own shop floor, a client question you answered last week.
- Cut what does not help the reader. Shorter and correct beats longer and generic.
- Look at the analyser. Fix what it flags, but write for the person first.
Google has said it rewards helpful content however it is produced, and warns against producing pages at scale mainly to rank. Three good articles a month that you have edited properly will do more than fifty you have not read.
Our longer guide, how to use an AI SEO writer in WordPress with your own API key, covers getting a key from each provider and keeping it safe.
Frequently asked questions
Which AI providers does the writer support?
Google Gemini, Groq, OpenRouter, OpenAI and Anthropic (Claude), plus any OpenAI-compatible endpoint you enter yourself. You add your own API key under AI Writer, AI Providers.
How many articles can I generate for free?
Three per calendar month on the free plugin. The counter resets on the 1st, and a generation that fails does not count. The optional Pro add-on removes the cap.
Do you see my content or my API key?
No. The free plugin makes no calls to our servers. Your prompt goes straight from your WordPress site to the provider you chose, using your key, and billing stays between you and that provider.
Can it write in Hindi or other languages?
There is a Language setting under Content and Defaults, so you can ask for Hindi, Gujarati or another language. Output quality depends on the model you pick, so review it like any draft.
Will AI-written posts hurt my rankings?
Google's guidance focuses on whether content is helpful, not on how it was produced. Mass-producing thin pages is the risk. Use the writer for drafts, then add your own facts, examples and experience before publishing.
Try it on three articles this month, free. Install Impex Rank SEO from WordPress.org, add your key under AI Providers, and generate your first draft. When three a month is not enough, see what Pro adds.
