Title: Imagivo – AI Image SEO for WooCommerce Author: josephimgseo Published: October 2, 2026 Last modified: October 2, 2026 --- Search plugins ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/imagivo.svg) # Imagivo – AI Image SEO for WooCommerce By [josephimgseo](https://profiles.wordpress.org/josephimgseo/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/imagivo.0.9.0.zip) * [Details](https://wordpress.org/plugins/imagivo/#description) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/plugins/imagivo/#reviews) * [Installation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/imagivo/#installation) * [Development](https://wordpress.org/plugins/imagivo/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/imagivo/) ## Description Imagivo is a WooCommerce plugin that connects to the external ImgSEO service at https://imgseo.io for server-side image SEO generation. It sends raw product image bytes, the filename and MIME type, bearer API authentication, and bounded product context where available. One manual, bulk, or explicitly enabled automatic request returns Alt Text, an SEO Image Title, an Attachment Image Description, and Tag Suggestions. Imagivo can safely save eligible empty attachment Alt, title, and description fields; tags remain non-destructive suggestions. It does not generate or modify WooCommerce product descriptions, and it does not embed EXIF or XMP metadata in image files. **This is an early release (0.9.0).** It currently provides: * A settings page to store your ImgSEO API key, with a “Test connection” button. * A “Generate Image SEO (Imagivo)” button on the product editor screen, which is available only in the classic WooCommerce product editor. It generates one reusable bundle for that product’s featured image: one image, one click, one API call, and at most one credit. It never overwrites existing attachment Alt, title, or description content. * A “Bulk Image SEO” page (Imagivo Bulk Image SEO) that scans featured, gallery, and variation images with empty alt text in bounded background pages. It shows an exact deduplicated preview and maximum credit exposure, then requires explicit confirmation before bounded generation begins. Published, draft, pending, and private products are included. * Optional Automatic Image SEO for newly uploaded featured, gallery, and variation images. It is off by default, preserves existing attachment fields, keeps tags as suggestions only, and uses bounded delayed linkage/API retries. It writes an attachment title only when the title is literally empty and writes the attachment description only when empty. It does **not** assign tags, write captions or filenames, change WooCommerce product descriptions, Schema, or sitemaps. Bulk runs provide Pause/Resume but no Cancel control. #### External service disclosure Imagivo connects to the ImgSEO API (`https://imgseo.io`), an external paid service operated by ImgSEO, to verify the saved API key and perform server-side image SEO generation. External generation may consume ImgSEO service credits. The plugin uses these service endpoints: * `https://imgseo.io/api/v1/ping` for API-key validation/connectivity and optional advisory credit visibility. * `https://imgseo.io/api/v1/image-seo` for AI image SEO generation. Generation requests include an opaque, non-personal idempotency identifier so bounded retries of one logical image operation cannot start duplicate AI work. These actions trigger a request to that API: * The “Test connection” button sends an authenticated ping request, including the saved API key as bearer authentication, to verify connectivity and API-key validity. It may return an optional, point-in-time advisory credit summary, but that summary does not authorize or prohibit generation. Actual credit availability is enforced by the generation endpoint. Ping sends no image, generates no SEO text, and uses no credits. * When a Bulk Image SEO scan reaches its ready/review state, the Bulk page sends an authenticated ping request using the saved API key solely to retrieve optional, point-in-time advisory credit information. It sends no image bytes, generates no SEO text, and uses no generation credits. The returned balance is advisory only; actual credit availability is enforced by the generation endpoint. * The “Generate Image SEO (Imagivo)” button sends the bytes of the selected product’s featured image, its filename and MIME type, bearer API authentication, and bounded WooCommerce facts such as the product name, type, selected category, visible attributes, and image role, to generate one Image SEO Bundle for that image. * The “Bulk Image SEO” page does the same thing, once per selected unique product image with empty alt text. Catalog discovery is paginated in the background and image generation jobs are scheduled through a bounded, incrementally refilled window rather than inserting the entire catalog at once. Variation images may include their explicit variation attributes. Images shared by unrelated products omit product-specific facts and are marked as ambiguous. * When Automatic Image SEO is explicitly enabled, a newly uploaded image may be sent after it becomes linked as a WooCommerce featured, gallery, or variation image. One bundle may consume one credit; existing Alt, title, and description content is preserved and Tag Suggestions are not assigned. Generated bundle text may be stored in WordPress attachment Alt metadata, attachment title, or attachment description. Tag suggestions are displayed but not assigned to any taxonomy. ImgSEO does not generate or modify WooCommerce product descriptions. ImgSEO does not replace image files or embed EXIF/XMP metadata. Use of the ImgSEO API requires an ImgSEO account and is subject to the ImgSEO Terms of Service and Privacy Policy: * Terms of Service: https://imgseo.io/terms * Privacy Policy: https://imgseo.io/privacy ## Installation 1. Install Imagivo from Plugins Add New, or upload the plugin ZIP through Plugins Add New Upload Plugin. 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen in WordPress. 3. WooCommerce must be installed and active — Imagivo will show an admin notice and stay inactive otherwise. 4. Go to the new “Imagivo” menu, enter your ImgSEO API key, save, then click “Test Connection” to confirm it works. 5. In the classic WooCommerce product editor, open a product with a featured image, and use the “Generate Image SEO (Imagivo)” button in the Imagivo meta box (sidebar). ## FAQ ### Does this work without WooCommerce? No. Imagivo is built around WooCommerce product images specifically and will not activate its features without WooCommerce active. ### Where do I get an API key? From your account at https://imgseo.io. ### Will this overwrite alt text I already wrote? No. Existing attachment Alt, title, and description content is preserved. Automatic, Bulk, and manual Image SEO Bundle writes are write-if-empty. A bundle may still be generated when at least one writable attachment field is empty, but existing values are not replaced and Tag Suggestions are never assigned. ### Does generating alt text use one of my credits? A generation action may consume one credit when the ImgSEO API completes a successful real-AI generation. One successfully AI-processed image costs one credit and returns the whole bundle; there is no additional charge per field. This applies to a manual Image SEO Bundle, confirmed Bulk, and Automatic Image SEO. Scan/Preview and the “ Test connection” button use zero generation credits. Existing content and other local preflight skips make no generation request and consume zero credits. Invalid- key, out-of-credits, and degraded results are not charged. After an ambiguous transport failure, the plugin cannot prove whether the backend completed a credit-bearing generation before the connection failed. Temporary ImgSEO API rate limits are also not charged. Manual buttons show a temporary retry message; background bulk/automatic jobs reschedule the affected image after a bounded delay instead of retrying in a tight loop. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Imagivo – AI Image SEO for WooCommerce” is open source software.

Progress display with Pause/ Resume; automatically pauses on an out-of-credits or invalid-key response so it doesn’t fail hundreds of jobs in a row. #### 0.2.0 * Added: “Generate Alt Text (ImgSEO)” button on the product editor, for the product’s featured image. Respects existing alt text (never overwrites). #### 0.1.0 * Initial scaffolding release: plugin shell, WooCommerce check, settings page with API key storage, and a connection test.
