AI agent for WordPress  (New)

# Ask Writrex: the AI SEO agent that works inside WordPress.

Ask a question in plain English. Ask Writrex reads your pages, SEO fields, images and the live pages your visitors see, explains what is wrong and offers the fix as a change card. Nothing on your site changes until you press Apply, and every change can be undone with one click.

Included in Writrex Lite and every Writrex plan · Your own AI key · No credits

*Diagram: Animated demo of Ask Writrex. You ask it to fix the SEO on a page. It reads the page and loads the live page, finds a 73-character SEO title and a missing meta description, and proposes a shorter title with a before-and-after preview. You press Apply; the change is checked against the current page, applied, and saved to Change History with Undo.*

In plain facts

## What is Ask Writrex?

Ask Writrex is an AI agent built into the Writrex WordPress plugins. You chat with it like any AI assistant, but it can look at your actual site, so its answers come from your pages and not from guesswork. When it finds something to fix, it suggests the exact change and waits for your approval.

- **Where it lives:** Inside your WordPress dashboard at *Writrex → Ask Writrex*, plus a floating button and mini chat on every admin screen, including the block editor.

- **What it reads:** Pages, posts, SEO titles and descriptions, headings, images and ALT text, links, menus, Additional CSS, the live page as a visitor sees it, and your SEO reports.

- **What it changes:** Only what you approve: SEO fields, ALT text, page titles, excerpts, slugs, featured images, text, blocks, headings, links, clickable phone numbers and emails, Additional CSS, and new drafts.

- **AI providers:** Google Gemini in Writrex Lite. Gemini, OpenAI or Anthropic Claude on every paid Writrex plan. Pick the provider, model and effort for each chat.

- **Safety:** Every change waits for Apply, is checked against the current page first, is recorded in Change History and can be undone. It never edits PHP, themes or plugins.

- **Cost:** Included at no extra charge. It uses your own API key, so you pay your AI provider directly for what you use.

- **Requires:** Writrex Lite or Writrex 1.2.0 or later, WordPress 6.0+, PHP 7.4+ and an API key for your chosen provider.

        01 · Ask in plain English

## No settings to learn. Just ask.

Ask Writrex understands the questions site owners actually ask. Start with a whole-site check, or point it at one page from the floating button while you are editing.

- Answers stream in as they are written, with Stop, Regenerate and Edit
- Saved chats with search, rename and delete
- Export any chat as Markdown, or copy it into another AI tool

Try asking

Analyse my whole site and show me the most important SEO issues. Why is the Home page missing a meta title? Fix it. Fix the missing ALT text on this page. Make the phone number clickable everywhere on the site. Make the header buttons rounded. Give me five blog ideas that don't overlap what I've already written.

        02 · Evidence before fixes

## It reads your site before it suggests anything.

Generic AI chat tools guess. Ask Writrex looks. It loads the published page as a logged-out visitor sees it, so findings about H1 headings and SEO tags reflect what your theme really prints, not what the editor shows.

- Whole-site overview: theme, SEO plugin, page builders, content counts and the latest SEO score
- Any page or post: SEO title and description, headings, images, links, word count and block layout
- Media library, menus and Additional CSS
- Instructions hidden inside page content are treated as data and ignored

*Diagram: Animated diagram: Ask Writrex reads six sources on your site one after another - pages and posts, SEO fields, images and ALT text, menus and CSS, the live page as a visitor sees it, and your latest SEO report - before it suggests anything.*

      03 · What it can fix

## Real fixes, written straight into WordPress.

Each fix arrives as a change card with a before-and-after preview. You choose Preview on site, Apply, "I'll do it myself" or Dismiss.

### SEO title, description, keyphrase and canonical

Written into Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO, SEOPress or The SEO Framework, or printed by Writrex if you have no SEO plugin.

### Image ALT text

Descriptive ALT text for images that have none, page by page, so search engines and screen readers understand them.

### Page details

Page title, excerpt, slug and featured image, each shown as a clear before and after.

### Text, blocks and headings

An exact piece of page text, a single block, or a heading's wording and level. A change that would leave a page with no H1 is refused.

### Links, phone numbers and emails

Re-point or remove links to an address across a page, and turn plain phone numbers and email addresses into clickable links.

### Site styling and new drafts

Small design changes through Additional CSS, with unsafe CSS refused, and new posts or pages saved as drafts, never published without you.

**Page builders.** Elementor, Divi, WPBakery and other builder pages are detected. Ask Writrex still fixes SEO fields, ALT text, featured images and site CSS on them, and tells you what to change in your builder when an edit could break its layout.

      04 · SEO Reports + Fix with Ask Writrex

## Scan the whole site. Fix each issue in one click.

SEO Reports scans your site for essential SEO problems and saves each report with a site score. Every issue has a **Fix with Ask Writrex** button that opens a chat already focused on that problem, with a change card for each affected page.

*Diagram: Animated demo of SEO Reports with Ask Writrex. A site scan runs and saves a report with a site score of 64 and a list of issues: missing meta descriptions, two H1s on a live page, images without ALT text and phone numbers that are not clickable. Fix with Ask Writrex opens a chat with a change card for each page; each one is applied separately, and the next report scores 91.*

What SEO Reports checks Essential checks

- SEO titles and meta descriptions that are missing, too long or too short

- Missing or doubled H1 headings, checked against the live page

- Skipped heading levels and thin content

- Images without ALT text

- Broken internal links and links to unpublished pages

- Pages hidden from search or with a canonical pointing elsewhere

- Phone numbers and emails that aren't clickable

How it fits with SEO Repair Two tools, one goal

- **SEO Repair** (the Bulk Meta Fixer screen) rewrites weak meta titles and descriptions across many pages at once, with backup and undo.

- **SEO Reports** is the full site audit: headings, links, images, indexing and contact links as well as metadata. SEO Repair links straight to it.

- **Ask Writrex** fixes what either tool finds, page by page, and explains why each change matters.

- Every change from all three can be undone.

        05 · Built to be safe

## An agent that asks before it acts.

Ask Writrex can only suggest. Applying a change always takes your click, on a separate, permission-checked step, and every change lands in Change History.

- Checks the page hasn't changed since the suggestion, so it never overwrites newer edits
- One-click Undo on every change, with WordPress revisions kept for content edits
- Change History shows what changed, who approved it and when
- Respects WordPress roles: people can only approve changes they could already make
- Never edits PHP, theme files, plugins or the database directly

*Diagram: How a change is made safely: Ask Writrex suggests a change card, you review it or preview it on the site, your click applies it after a check against the current page, and Change History records it with one-click undo. A change is refused if the page changed since the suggestion or if it would leave the page with no H1.*

        06 · Your AI, your key

## Gemini, OpenAI or Claude. You choose, chat by chat.

Pick the provider, model and effort for each chat, and switch mid-chat if you like. If a model is busy or rate limited, Ask Writrex moves to another model from the same provider. It never switches provider on its own.

- Writrex Lite uses Google Gemini; a paid Gemini API plan gives the best results
- OpenAI and Anthropic Claude on every paid Writrex plan
- Models are discovered live from your key, so new releases appear without an update
- OpenAI requests are made with storage switched off

*Diagram: Ask Writrex providers: each chat uses the provider, model and effort you pick. Google Gemini works in Writrex Lite and every Writrex plan; OpenAI and Anthropic Claude work on every paid Writrex plan. If a model is busy, Ask Writrex moves to another model from the same provider and never switches provider on its own.*

      07 · Always one click away

## On every screen, including the block editor.

### Floating button and mini chat

A round button in the corner of every admin screen opens a mini chat. On an edit screen it focuses on that page, with a link to the full chat page.

### Preview on site

See a change on the real page before you apply it. An optional button on the website is visible only to logged-in users who can use Ask Writrex.

### Change History

A dedicated screen lists every change made through Ask Writrex, with search, filters and Undo.

FAQ

## Questions about Ask Writrex.

### What is Ask Writrex?

Ask Writrex is an AI agent built into Writrex Lite and Writrex. You chat with it like any AI assistant, but it can read your actual WordPress site: pages, posts, SEO fields, images, menus, CSS and the live pages visitors see. It explains what it finds and suggests fixes as change cards you can preview, apply, do yourself or dismiss.

### Will Ask Writrex change my site without asking?

No. It can only suggest changes. Every change waits for you to press Apply, is checked against the current version of the page first, is recorded in Change History, and can be undone with one click. It cannot edit PHP, theme or plugin files, and new posts it writes are saved as drafts.

### Does Ask Writrex cost extra?

No. It is included in Writrex Lite and every Writrex plan. It uses your own AI provider key, so you pay the provider directly for what you use. With Gemini you only pay Google if your usage goes past the free tier, although a paid Gemini plan gives the best results.

### Which AI models can Ask Writrex use?

In Writrex Lite, Google Gemini models. On every paid Writrex plan, Gemini, OpenAI or Anthropic Claude models. You choose the provider, model and effort for each chat, and models are discovered live from your API key.

### What does Ask Writrex send to the AI provider?

Only what it needs to answer: your message, the chat so far, your site's name and address, and the site information it looks up. You can switch off "Send page text to the AI provider" in Ask Writrex settings so it works from titles, SEO fields and page structure only. Your API key, passwords and users' emails are never sent.

### How is Ask Writrex different from SEO Repair?

SEO Repair rewrites meta titles and descriptions across many pages at once. SEO Reports is the wider audit, covering headings, links, images, indexing and contact links. Ask Writrex is the agent that fixes what they find, page by page, explains each change and can also make changes beyond metadata, such as ALT text, headings, links and site CSS.

### Does Ask Writrex work with page builders?

Yes, carefully. It detects Elementor, Divi, WPBakery and other builders, and can still fix SEO fields, ALT text, featured images and site CSS on those pages. Edits to builder layouts that it cannot rebuild safely are not offered; it tells you what to change in your builder instead.

### Who can use Ask Writrex?

Administrators, and Editors unless you switch that off in Ask Writrex settings. Anyone using it can only apply changes their WordPress role already allows, so an Editor cannot change site CSS, for example.
