<h3>Third-Party Services</h3>
This plugin can connect to external services in two ways:
Option 1 — Managed Service (default, no setup required)
By default, this plugin routes requests through our secure API server for AI-powered content analysis and image matching. Content is processed in real-time and is not stored permanently.
<ul>
<li>Service URL: https://smart-image-block-production.up.railway.app</li>
<li>Privacy Policy: <a href="https://swellapps.ai/privacy-policy/" rel="nofollow ugc">https://swellapps.ai/privacy-policy/</a></li>
</ul>
Option 2 — Your Own API Keys (Settings → Swell AI Image Block)
You may instead enter your own API keys. In this case, your WordPress site calls the APIs directly and no data passes through our server.
Our managed server and the direct-key mode both communicate with:
OpenAI – Used for analyzing post content and generating relevant image search keywords.

The Microstock Powersearch Plugin makes it quick and easy to find awesome and affordable stock photographs from several microstock photography agencies.
The plugin suggests related searches to your post content, and displays search results in the edit-post page for either new images or each agency’s ‘best match’ search for upto 5 microstock image licensing agencies in a neat grid. Clicking any of these thumbnails will open a larger preview (in a cool lightbox format). Click the image if you want to license it and a new tab will open with the agency page.
The 5 included agencies are:
<ul>
<li>
Fotolia
</li>
<li>
Dreamstime
</li>
<li>
Shutterstock
</li>
<li>
123 Royalty Free
</li>
<li>
Bigstock
</li>
</ul>
With more coming in future.
This is an expansion of a firefox microstock addon which has been live for almost 2 years, and has recently come to the chrome browser too in this new and more shiny format. The plugin is lightweight and fast, and makes it really easy to search the agencies for royalty free images to license for as little as $1. It’s a great way to quickly, easily, and most importantly legally obtain amazing photos, illustrations, clipart or textures for your blog.
Please review with your feedback, and let me know about any problems or if you have suggestions to make the Microstock Photo Powersearch Plugin even better.
