FAQ
-
Is the plugin really free?
-
Yes, all features are fully free forever. We do not impose any credit or usage limit. You only need your own API key from Groq (free, 14,400 requests/day) or OpenAI (paid), or a local Ollama installation.
-
Does it work with ChatGPT / OpenAI?
-
Yes. Select “OpenAI” as provider in Settings and paste your OpenAI API key. The plugin supports GPT-4o and GPT-4o Mini.
-
How do I use AI in WordPress without paying?
-
Use the free Groq provider. Get a free API key at console.groq.com (no credit card required), paste it in the plugin Settings, and you get 14,400 AI generations per day — more than enough for most blogs.
-
Which AI provider should I choose?
-
Groq is recommended for most users: free, very fast, with up to 14,400 requests per day. OpenAI offers more powerful models but requires a paid account. Ollama allows 100% local and private usage but requires technical setup.
-
Is the plugin available in French?
-
Yes, the plugin interface is fully translated into French since version 1.0.3.
-
Is my content private?
-
Your content is sent to your chosen AI provider (Groq, OpenAI, or your local Ollama) for processing. The plugin itself does not collect, store, or transmit any of your data to Synthocode servers.
-
Does the plugin work with the Classic Editor?
-
No, the sidebar integration is specific to the Gutenberg block editor. The Classic Editor is not supported.
-
Can I use it on multiple sites?
-
Yes, the plugin is free and can be used on an unlimited number of sites.
-
Will it slow down my site?
-
No. The plugin only loads its code inside the Gutenberg editor for logged-in editors. It has zero impact on your site’s front-end performance.
-
How does it compare to AI Engine, GetGenie, or BertaAI?
-
Synthocode Content Copilot is lighter, faster, fully free, and focused on Gutenberg-native integration. No bloated dashboard, no upsells inside the editor.
