AI-Kit Overview

AI-Kit adds practical AI helpers to WordPress while keeping privacy first:

  • Free (local-only): uses Chrome’s built-in on-device AI when available.
  • Pro (optional): can also call your own AWS backend (deployed with the WP Suite AI-Kit Backend SAR template) for fallback and advanced features.
Privacy by default

When on-device AI is available, content stays in the browser — no server round-trip.

Where AI-Kit shows up in WordPress

Gutenberg editor

  • AI-Kit Sidebar: generate post SEO metadata (title/excerpt/etc.), write content with an Apply/Insert workflow.
  • Inline tools: Proofread / Rewrite / Translate in a compact toolbar group for editable text selections.
  • Image blocks: a dedicated SEO Metadata panel for image-like blocks (core/image, core/cover, core/media-text).

Media Library

Generate image SEO metadata (alt text, title, caption, description) from:

  • List and Grid views
  • Attachment details panel
  • Attachment edit screen
  • Bulk generation + preview + accept flows

Frontend (Pro)

  • AI‑Kit Chatbot
  • AI‑Kit Feature block
  • AI‑Kit Doc Search block
  • [smartcloud-ai-kit-feature] shortcode
  • [smartcloud-ai-kit-doc-search] shortcode

These surfaces let visitors run AI actions (summarize / write / rewrite / translate / proofread) on selected content with a configurable UI, while the chatbot answers questions through a Knowledge Base–powered Amazon Bedrock conversation so responses stay grounded in your own documents.
