This plugin connects your WordPress site to CitePulse so you can: * **Sync your content inventory** – Automatically send your published posts and pages to CitePulse for analysis. * **Receive AI-optimized drafts** – CitePulse’s Content Lab delivers optimized content directly into your WordPress editor as safe drafts. * **Track optimization status** – See which pages have pending recommendations and which have been updated. * **Stay draft-safe** – The plugin never publishes content automatically. All changes arrive as drafts for your review. #### How It Works 1. Install and activate the plugin. 2. Get a connection code from your CitePulse dashboard at [citepulse.io](https://www.citepulse.io). 3. Paste the code in the plugin settings page to connect. 4. Your content inventory syncs automatically. 5. When CitePulse generates optimized content, it appears as a draft in your WordPress editor. #### What Is CitePulse? CitePulse is the first platform purpose-built for Generative Engine Optimization( GEO). It monitors your brand’s visibility across AI search engines and provides actionable recommendations to improve how AI models reference your content.

Sign up at [citepulse.io](https://www.citepulse.io). ### Will this plugin publish content automatically? No. All content from CitePulse is created as WordPress drafts. You must review and publish manually. ### What data is sent to CitePulse? The plugin sends your published post and page titles, URLs, excerpts, modification dates, and content checksums. It does not send full post content, passwords, or user data. ### Can I disconnect at any time? Yes. Use the Disconnect button on the CitePulse settings page. All stored credentials are removed immediately. ### Does this affect my site’s performance? No. The plugin uses WordPress cron for background tasks (heartbeat every 6 hours, inventory sync daily, job polling every 5 minutes). These run asynchronously and do not affect page load times. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “CitePulse – AI Visibility Optimizer” is open source software.
