outscoreagent

OutscoreAgent is an AI content generator that creates SEO-optimized articles and publishes them directly to your WordPress site. It handles the entire content lifecycle — from keyword research and topic clustering through SERP competitor analysis, article generation, and ongoing content refresh to combat SEO decay.
This plugin is the WordPress-side bridge: it creates a secure REST API endpoint that the OutscoreAgent platform uses to push finished articles. Once configured, articles are automatically published to your site with their correct title, content, featured image, and metadata.
What OutscoreAgent brings to your WordPress site:
<ul>
<li>AI content generation — topic research, competitor analysis, and publish-ready articles</li>
<li>SEO optimization — keyword targeting informed by SERP analysis and topic clusters</li>
<li>Content refresh — detect SEO decay (ranking drops, outdated content) and automatically update articles</li>
<li>Scheduled publishing — set a daily publish time and articles go live on your schedule</li>
<li>Featured images with proper photographer attribution (Pexels / Unsplash)</li>
<li>IndexNow integration — notify search engines the moment an article is published</li>
</ul>
What the plugin handles:
<ul>
<li>Secure bearer token authentication — only OutscoreAgent can publish to your site</li>
<li>HTTPS enforcement — tokens are never transmitted over plain HTTP</li>
<li>Per-site configuration — each WordPress site has its own independent token</li>
<li>Featured image sideloading into the WordPress media library</li>
<li>Structured error logging — detailed logs available in the admin panel</li>
<li>Clean uninstall — removing the plugin deletes all its data from your database</li>
</ul>
How it works:
<ol>
<li>Install and activate the plugin</li>
<li>Generate an API token from the OutscoreAgent settings page</li>
<li>Enter the token and your site’s REST API URL in the OutscoreAgent platform</li>
<li>Articles are published automatically when they finish generating</li>
</ol>
OutscoreAgent offers a free tier with core features included, so you can connect your site and start publishing without a paid subscription. A free trial of premium features is available for new accounts.
Third-party service requirement:
This plugin is the WordPress-side companion of the <a href="https://outscoreagent.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">OutscoreAgent</a> platform and requires an active OutscoreAgent account to be useful. The plugin itself does nothing on its own — it exposes a secure REST endpoint that the OutscoreAgent platform calls to publish generated articles, and it sends post-status updates back to the platform so article state stays in sync. Without an OutscoreAgent account, no data is ever sent anywhere; the plugin simply remains idle.
Data transmitted to OutscoreAgent:
When you configure a callback URL in the plugin settings (provided to you by the OutscoreAgent platform), the plugin will transmit the following information to OutscoreAgent each time a post it originally published changes status (draft → publish, publish → trash, etc.):
<ul>
<li>The post’s WordPress ID</li>
<li>The post’s public permalink and WP admin edit link</li>
<li>The new post status (e.g. <code>publish</code>, <code>draft</code>, <code>trash</code>)</li>
<li>The OutscoreAgent external article ID the post is linked to</li>
<li>A UTC timestamp</li>
</ul>
No post content, user personal data, or WordPress credentials are ever sent. See the External services section below for the full disclosure. By using this plugin you agree to the OutscoreAgent <a href="https://outscoreagent.com/terms" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Service</a> and <a href="https://outscoreagent.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>.
<h3>External services</h3>
This plugin relies on the OutscoreAgent platform at https://outscoreagent.com/ to function. An OutscoreAgent account is required — without one, the plugin stays idle and no data leaves your site.
Service used: OutscoreAgent (operated by OutscoreAgent, the plugin author).
What the service does: Generates SEO-optimised articles with AI on OutscoreAgent’s servers, then publishes them to your WordPress site via the REST endpoint this plugin exposes. Tracks the post-status lifecycle (draft / published / trashed) for its own content dashboard.
When data is sent to the service: Whenever a WordPress post that was originally published by OutscoreAgent changes status (e.g. the editor moves it from draft to publish, or trashes it). Sending is triggered by WordPress’s <code>transition_post_status</code> hook. No data is sent for posts the plugin did not create. No data is sent before you configure the callback URL in Settings → OutscoreAgent Publisher.
What data is sent: A single JSON payload containing:
<ul>
<li><code>event</code> — the literal string <code>post_status_changed</code></li>
<li><code>external_id</code> — the OutscoreAgent article ID this post is linked to</li>
<li><code>wp_post_id</code> — the numeric WordPress post ID</li>
<li><code>wp_post_url</code> — the public permalink of the post</li>
<li><code>wp_post_status</code> — the new WordPress post status (e.g. <code>publish</code>, <code>draft</code>, <code>trash</code>)</li>
<li><code>wp_edit_url</code> — the WordPress admin edit URL for the post</li>
<li><code>timestamp</code> — ISO-8601 UTC timestamp of the transition</li>
</ul>
No post content, user personal data, comments, WordPress credentials, or IP addresses are transmitted.
Transport: HTTPS POST to the callback URL the OutscoreAgent platform configures in the plugin settings. The plugin refuses to send callbacks over plain HTTP (localhost is exempt for development only).
Terms and Privacy: The OutscoreAgent service is governed by its <a href="https://outscoreagent.com/terms" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Service</a> and <a href="https://outscoreagent.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>. By connecting this plugin to your OutscoreAgent account you agree to both.
