Orshot

Orshot lets you connect your WordPress site to <a href="https://orshot.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Orshot</a> — a template-based image, PDF, and video generation platform — and automatically produce visual assets for your content.
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Auto Featured Images – Automatically generate a featured image from an Orshot template every time you publish a post. The post title, excerpt, and category are injected into the template.</li>
<li>Open Graph / Social Images – Pre-generate OG images for social sharing when a post is published. The plugin injects the appropriate <code>og:image</code> and <code>twitter:image</code> meta tags.</li>
<li>Gutenberg Block – Insert the Orshot Image block into any post or page to pick a template, generate an image, and embed it inline.</li>
<li>Upload Receiver – Orshot can push rendered files directly into your WordPress media library as a storage connection.</li>
<li>Template Picker – Browse and select templates from your Orshot workspace without leaving WordPress.</li>
</ul>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Install and activate the plugin.</li>
<li>Go to Settings → Orshot and click Connect to Orshot.</li>

</ol>
<h4>Third-Party Service</h4>
