## Description

ShopAltAI is a thin API client for the ShopAltAI SaaS — no AI generation
 runs inside
WordPress. This plugin pulls your live WooCommerce products and Media Library images,
sends them to ShopAltAI’s API for generation, and writes the result back into WordPress
only after you review and accept it.

**Product Generator** — select WooCommerce products and generate a full
 listing(
title, description, SKU, price suggestion, attributes, tags, SEO fields) from the
product’s existing image.

**Alt Text Generator** — select images from the Media Library and
 generate accurate
alt text.

Every screen is manual-trigger only — nothing is generated or written
 back automatically.
Generation consumes your ShopAltAI account’s credit balance (or your BYOK key, if
configured on the dashboard), shown in the plugin’s admin header.

#### Requirements

 * A ShopAltAI account and API key (Settings  WordPress plugin on the
    ShopAltAI
   dashboard).
 * WooCommerce, active, for the Product Generator screen only.

#### v1 scope

 * WordPress only — no other CMS.
 * No webhooks or automatic generation on new content.

#### External service

This plugin is a client for ShopAltAI, a third-party AI content service
 at shopaltai.
com. No AI generation happens inside WordPress — the plugin sends content to ShopAltAI’s
API and writes the result back into WordPress only after you review it in the plugin’s
panel and click Accept. A ShopAltAI account and API key are required; without one,
the plugin’s screens load but generation is disabled.

Data is sent only when you manually click “Auto Generate” on the
 Product Generator
or Alt Text Generator screen, for the specific items you’ve selected. Nothing is
sent automatically, on a schedule, or when content is created, edited, or saved 
elsewhere in WordPress.

What is sent, per generation:

 * **Both generators** — the image itself. If the file is readable
    directly off
   local disk, its actual bytes are sent (base64-encoded); if not (for example, 
   a media-offload plugin storing files on S3), the image’s public URL is sent instead
   and ShopAltAI fetches it.
 * **Product Generator** — additionally, the product’s title and its
    WooCommerce
   category names, as context for the generated listing. The product’s existing 
   description is not sent.
 * **Every request** — your ShopAltAI API key, sent as a bearer token
    to authenticate
   the request. It is stored in this site’s WordPress options table and never transmitted
   anywhere except to shopaltai.com.

No data is sent to any service other than ShopAltAI’s own API
 (shopaltai.com). 
The plugin does not use any analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking service.

## Installation

 1. In wp-admin, go to Plugins  Add New and search for “ShopAltAI”, then click Install
    Now. (Alternatively, download the zip and install it via Plugins  Add New  Upload
    Plugin, or upload the `shopaltai` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.)
 2. Activate the plugin.
 3. Go to ShopAltAI  Settings, paste your API key, and click “Test connection”.

## FAQ

### Do I need a paid ShopAltAI account?

No. A free ShopAltAI account works — sign up at shopaltai.com to get an
 API key,
then paste it into ShopAltAI  Settings in wp-admin. Free accounts include a limited
monthly allowance; paid plans and bring-your-own-key (BYOK) unlock higher or unlimited
usage. Either way, an account and API key are required — the plugin does nothing
without one.

### Does it work without WooCommerce?

Yes, partially. The Alt Text Generator and Settings screens work on any
 WordPress
site. The Product Generator screen requires WooCommerce — without it active, that
screen shows a notice explaining this instead of a product list, and nothing else
in the plugin is affected.

### Does anything publish or generate automatically?

No. Every generation is started manually, by clicking “Auto Generate”
 on a screen
after selecting specific products or images. Nothing runs on a schedule, on content
save, or via a webhook. Generated content is shown in a review panel and is only
written into WordPress after you click Accept.

### Where does my data go?

Only to ShopAltAI’s own API at shopaltai.com — see “External service”
 above for
exactly what’s sent and when. The plugin doesn’t use any other third-party service.

### What happens to my existing content if I don’t accept a generation?

Nothing. Generated fields are shown for review only; declining or
 navigating away
without clicking Accept leaves your product or image exactly as it was.

## Changelog

Version numbers below start at 1.0.0 because that’s when this plugin
 was first 
built, not when it joined the WordPress.org directory — 2.3.0 was already the current
version, distributed directly from shopaltai.com, before this listing existed. Kept
as-is (rather than restarting numbering at 1.0.0 for the directory debut) so that
anyone who installed a prior direct-download build gets a proper update through 
the directory instead of what WordPress would read as a downgrade.

#### 2.3.0

 * Removed Content Generator — content generation is now web-app only,
    available
   at shopaltai.com. Product Generator and Alt Text Generator are unaffected.

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial release: Product Generator, Alt Text Generator, Content
    Generator (Pages),
   Settings with API key + connection test.
