Juanjo Labs Semantic Related Posts<\/strong> shows related articles using real semantic similarity<\/strong> (AI embeddings), not just shared tags or categories like most related-posts plugins.<\/p>\n\n Why does this matter? A traditional related-posts plugin only compares shared tags and categories. This plugin understands what each article is actually about<\/em> and finds genuinely similar content, even if it doesn't share a single tag.<\/p>\n\n Pick whichever mode fits your site best \u2014 all four are available in both Lite and Pro:<\/p>\n\n Upgrade to Pro anytime from the plugin's settings page in your WordPress admin (Settings \u2192 Semantic Related Posts \u2192 Licencia).<\/p>\n\n This plugin connects to third-party AI APIs to provide its core features. You must supply your own API key for each service you want to use; the plugin never sends data to these services without a key configured, and none of your API keys are ever sent to us (Juanjo Labs) or to any server other than the provider's own.<\/p>\n\n Voyage AI (embeddings)<\/strong> \u2014 used to generate the semantic embeddings that power the \"AI semantic\" and \"Hybrid\" related-posts modes.\nIt sends the title and excerpt of each published post (and, in the Pro version, the full post content) to Voyage AI's API whenever a post is created or updated and an API key is configured. No data is sent if this mode isn't in use or no API key is set.\nProvider: Voyage AI Innovations, Inc. \u2014 Terms of Service<\/a> \u2014 Privacy Policy<\/a><\/p>\n\n Anthropic API (Claude)<\/strong> \u2014 used only in the Pro version, to generate SEO metadata (title, description, focus keyword) and image ALT text for Rank Math.\nIt sends the post's title and content (for metadata) or an image's binary data (for ALT text) to Anthropic's API when you use the \"Generate SEO\" tools and an Anthropic API key is configured. No data is sent if no API key is set, or in the Lite version, which generates this metadata locally using simple rules instead.\nProvider: Anthropic, PBC \u2014 Commercial Terms of Service<\/a> \u2014 Privacy Policy<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n Yes, the AI matching mode uses Voyage AI's embeddings API \u2014 you supply your own key, and Voyage AI's own free tier includes a monthly quota (set by Voyage AI, not by this plugin). The category, tags, and hybrid-without-API-key modes don't require any external key.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes, the widget adapts to your theme's styles and can be inserted via shortcode, Gutenberg block, or classic widget.<\/p>\n\n On sites with WooCommerce<\/strong>: if you include \"Products\" under Settings \u2192 Semantic Related Posts \u2192 Tipos de contenido, the widget inserts automatically on product pages the same way it does on posts, on any theme that runs Both versions include all 4 matching modes (AI, category, tags, hybrid), unlimited AI indexing, the ability to include any public post type (including WooCommerce products), and SEO metadata generation for Rank Math. Lite uses title + excerpt for AI mode and rule-based SEO metadata, generated manually. Pro adds embeddings over the full post content (higher accuracy), automatic recalculation via cron, real AI-generated (Claude) SEO metadata, 3 widget styles, a dedicated WooCommerce integration hook for classic themes, manual post exclusion, and per-category weighting.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n4 matching modes, not just AI<\/h4>\n\n

the_content<\/code> for the product description (Storefront, Astra, Flatsome, OceanWP, and most themes used with WooCommerce in production). The Pro<\/strong> version adds a dedicated WooCommerce hook that also covers classic themes where the product has no long description (so the_content<\/code> never runs). On fully block-based themes with WooCommerce Blocks<\/strong> (for example, Twenty Twenty-Four), automatic insertion doesn't work on either version because of how those themes rebuild the product page \u2014 in that case, manually add a \"Custom HTML\" block with the [semantic_related_posts]<\/code> shortcode to the product template (Appearance \u2192 Site Editor \u2192 Templates \u2192 Single Product). The shortcode works correctly on any theme, including block themes.<\/p><\/dd>\nWhat's the difference between Lite and Pro?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
