<h4>External Services Used</h4>
IMPORTANT: This plugin uses external services to generate content and images.
<h4>1. AI Content Generation</h4>
This plugin requires an API key from an AI service provider to generate blog posts.
Why External Service is Required: 
AI content generation requires large language models (LLMs) that run on powerful servers with specialized hardware. These models cannot run locally on a WordPress server due to: 
– Massive computational requirements (billions of parameters) 
– Specialized GPU infrastructure needed for inference 
– Continuous model updates and improvements 
– Resource-intensive processing that would overwhelm typical hosting environments
The plugin sends your prompts to these external AI services where the actual content generation processing occurs on their servers.
Free Version: Unlimited posts with Groq AI exclusively
Service Used: Groq (https://console.groq.com) 
– Completely free, no credit card required 
– Fast AI model (Llama 3.3-70b-versatile) 
– No cost per request 
– Get your API key: https://console.groq.com/
Default API Endpoint: https://api.groq.com/openai/v1/chat/completions
Terms of Use & Privacy Policy:

Note: The Pro version supports multiple AI providers (OpenAI, Claude, custom endpoints). When using Pro with other AI providers, refer to those providers’ Terms of Use and Privacy Policy pages directly.
Data Transmitted: 
– Your prompt text (including keywords) 
– Post generation requests 
– You control your own API key 
– No personal data is collected by this plugin
Pro Version AI Providers:
The Pro version supports multiple AI providers. When using Pro, data is transmitted to your selected provider:
OpenAI (GPT-4, GPT-3.5-turbo) 
– Service: OpenAI (https://openai.com) 
– API Endpoint: https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions

<h4>2. Featured Images (Unsplash)</h4>
The plugin automatically fetches relevant featured images from Unsplash’s free stock photo API.
Why External Service is Required: 
Unsplash provides access to millions of high-quality, royalty-free stock photos that are properly licensed for commercial use. This service cannot be replicated locally because: 
– Requires access to a curated library of millions of professional photos 
– Ensures proper licensing and attribution compliance 
– Provides search functionality across a vast image database 
– Maintains photographer attribution and licensing information
The plugin queries Unsplash’s API to retrieve images based on your post keywords, ensuring you get properly licensed images with correct attribution.
Service: Unsplash (https://unsplash.com) 
API Endpoint: https://api.unsplash.com/photos/random 
Privacy Policy: https://unsplash.com/privacy 
Terms of Service: https://unsplash.com/terms 
License: All photos are free to use under the Unsplash License
Requirements: 
– Free Unsplash API key (get it at https://unsplash.com/developers) 
– Create a free developer account 
– Register your application (demo/development tier is free)
Data Transmitted: 
– Search keyword only (based on your post topic) 
– No personal data is sent
Attribution: 
– Photos are automatically attributed to photographers 
– Attribution is added to image captions (Unsplash requirement) 
– All photos are properly licensed for commercial use
Pro Version: Pro users get multiple categories and auto-generated tags in addition to featured images.
