<p><strong>Content Refresher</strong> automatically identifies blog posts that have become stale and uses AI to generate updated drafts. You stay in full control: nothing is published without your explicit approval.</p>
<h4>How it works</h4>
<ol>
<li><strong>Scan</strong> – The plugin checks your posts daily and selects those older than your configured threshold (e.g. 6 months).</li>
<li><strong>Refresh</strong> – Each selected post is sent to the Content Refresher API, which uses real-time data and AI to generate a refreshed version.</li>
<li><strong>Verify</strong> – The new draft appears in the plugin’s Verification Queue. You review and approve (or reject) each one.</li>
<li><strong>Publish</strong> – Only approved drafts are applied to your post. You are always in control.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Who is it for?</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>SaaS companies</strong> with content-heavy blogs that need to stay current</li>
<li><strong>Digital agencies</strong> managing multiple client WordPress sites</li>

<h4>External Services</h4>
<p>This plugin connects to the following external services:</p>
<p><strong>1. Content Refresher API</strong></p>
<p>The plugin sends data to the Content Refresher API to analyze and generate refreshed content drafts.</p>
<p>Data sent and when:</p>
<ul>
<li>Your WordPress site domain (sent on every settings page load to verify the license and sync credits)</li>
<li>Your license key (for authentication)</li>
<li>The post title, post content, and focus keyword of the post being refreshed (only when a content refresh is triggered — manually or via scheduled cron)</li>
</ul>
<p>This data is used solely to authenticate your license, track credit usage, and generate a refreshed content draft using Google Gemini AI. Post content is not stored permanently after the response is returned.</p>
