AI Workflow Automation
Website and docs: https://wpaiworkflowautomation.com What reviewers say “You can design these workflows using an intuitive drag-and-drop editor, and access multiple AI models from the same user interface.” (WPBeginner) “AI Workflow Automation stands out as a powerful solution if you want to leverage AI within the WordPress ecosystem.” (WP Mayor, rated 4.5 out of 5) Turn WordPress into an AI automation platform, visually, without code. Drag nodes onto a canvas, connect them, and build real, multi-step workflows and AI agents right inside wp-admin. Draft and optimize content, answer visitors with an AI chatbot, run form-to-AI automations, scrape and research the web, and keep a human in the loop for approvals. Powered by leading models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and OpenRouter: hundreds of models through one interface. It is genuinely free. Bring your own AI provider API key and every workflow runs locally on your own server: unlimited, with no account and nothing sent to us. When you’d rather not manage keys or worry about PHP timeouts, flip any workflow to Cloud and run it on our hosted engine with a free connected account. You choose, per workflow, whether it runs Local (your key) or Cloud (our hosted engine), and you can mix both on the same site. Why AI Workflow Automation A real free tier, not a trial. The visual builder, ~20 node types, every trigger, local execution, and the chat widget are free forever with your own key (BYOK). No account needed, no lock-in. Visual, multi-step automations and agents. Not single-shot prompts: chain trigger, AI, logic, and action into genuine automations on a drag-and-drop canvas (React Flow), then watch each run live. AI agent chatbots that do things. Deploy a chatbot that can search your posts and WooCommerce products, show rich cards, and call your workflows as tools, governed by per-tool approval gates, rate limits, and one-click human handoff to Chatwoot, Zendesk, or Intercom. Human in the loop, built in. Pause any workflow for a person to review, edit, or approve AI output. Pending approvals and hand-offs collect in a dedicated Tasks page and a real-time Operator Inbox. Your keys, or ours. Run on your own key for free, or connect a free account and use hosted AI with no key management at all. Your provider keys never leave WordPress. WordPress-native, agency-ready. Trigger from core events and the major form plugins, expose workflows as core Abilities / MCP tools on WordPress 7.0 (opt-in), and manage many client sites from one account. Who it’s for Content creators and marketers: automate drafting, summarizing, SEO optimization, and image sourcing. Agencies and freelancers: deploy AI automations and chatbots across many client sites, billed centrally. Store owners: generate product descriptions, route form leads through AI, and post results automatically. Developers: trigger workflows by webhook, call external APIs, parse JSON/XML/CSV/HTML, and expose workflows to AI agents via Abilities/MCP. What you can build (nodes) Triggers: manual, scheduled runs, webhooks, and form submissions from Gravity Forms, WPForms, Contact Form 7, Ninja Forms, and Elementor Forms, plus workflow-to-workflow chaining. AI Model node: generate and transform text with OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), and OpenRouter; use your key, the site-default provider, or a connected account. Return named, typed multi-output fields that flow straight into later steps. Specialized AI nodes: sentiment analysis, summarization, information extraction, SEO optimization, and full article writing. Content and data actions: create or update posts and custom post types (including WooCommerce products and ACF fields), write to custom database tables, find images with Unsplash, generate images/media, generate PDFs from templates or HTML, send email, call external APIs, and post to webhooks. Connect an App: bring Google (Sheets, Drive, Docs, Gmail), Slack, Notion, GitHub, and more into a workflow as action steps, with a secure one-click account connection. Research and web: deep web research and Firecrawl-powered scraping/crawling pipelines. Knowledge Base (RAG): give your AI a private knowledge base from pasted text, your WordPress content, or uploaded PDF/DOCX/TXT documents. Chatbots: build an AI chat widget trained on your own data and deploy it anywhere with a shortcode. Logic and control: conditions and branching, a Loop node, parsers (JSON/XML/CSV/HTML), and a Human Input node for approvals and human-in-the-loop review. MCP client: connect your workflows to external MCP tools and servers. Use cases Content automation: turn a topic or brief into a drafted, SEO-optimized post, ready for review. AI chatbots: answer visitor questions 24/7 with a chatbot trained on your content, deployed via shortcode. Form to AI to action: take a form submission, process it with AI, and email, post, or store the result automatically. Research and scraping pipelines: crawl sources with Firecrawl, research a subject, then summarize and extract structured data. Human-approval flows: pause a workflow for a human to review, edit, or approve AI output before it goes live. Agentic tasks (WP 7.0): let an AI assistant call your workflows as Abilities/MCP tools, with spend limits you control. Free vs. Cloud, your choice, per workflow Local (free, BYOK). Builder, core nodes, triggers, chat widget, and local execution are free forever. AI calls go directly from your site to the provider you configured, using your key. Your key never leaves your WordPress install. No account required. Cloud. Connect a free account to run workflows on our engine with our keys: no key management, no PHP timeouts, server-side scheduling, and premium nodes. External services This plugin can connect to external services. In the free, local (BYOK) configuration it never contacts our platform. Each connection below happens only in the situation described. 1. AI Workflow Automation platform (accounts and cloud execution) Our hosted account, AI proxy, and workflow execution service. It is contacted only after you create or connect an account, and never in local/BYOK mode. Service domain: https://api.wpaiworkflowautomation.com What is sent, and when: When you create or connect an account: your email and password, or a Google sign-in token, so we can authenticate you, plus your site URL so the site can be registered and issued a site key. When an AI node runs in keyless mode: the prompt or messages, the model name, and the generation parameters for that request, so the call can run on our provider keys and return the result. Your own provider keys are never included. When a workflow runs in Cloud mode: the workflow definition and the trigger or input data for that run, so our engine can execute it and return the result. A finished run may perform a small, allow-listed WordPress action back on your site through a signed callback. While the site stays connected: your plan status and remaining allowance are fetched periodically so the plugin can display them. If you redeem a legacy license: the license key. Terms and conditions: https://wpaiworkflowautomation.com/terms-and-conditions/ Privacy policy: https://wpaiworkflowautomation.com/privacy-policy/ 2. Your AI provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, or another provider you configure) Contacted when an AI node runs in local/BYOK mode, or when you use the WordPress site-default provider. What is sent, and when: the prompt or messages and the generation parameters for that request, sent directly from your server to the provider you configured, using your own key, at the moment the node runs. Nothing passes through us. Review the terms and privacy policy of the provider you choose, for example https://openai.com/policies , https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy , or https://openrouter.ai/privacy . 3. Template library (wpaiworkflowautomation.com) Contacted only when you open the Templates screen or import a template. Service domain: https://wpaiworkflowautomation.com What is sent, and when: a request for the template list or for one template by slug, at the moment you browse or import. If a legacy license key is still stored on the site, it is included so entitled templates can be returned. No workflow or site content is sent. 4. Paddle (payment processing) Our merchant of record, contacted only if you choose to buy a paid plan or a top-up. What is sent, and when: the plugin asks our platform for a checkout session and opens Paddle’s hosted checkout page; the billing details you enter there go to Paddle. The plugin never loads Paddle scripts on your site and never handles or stores card data. Terms: https://www.paddle.com/legal/terms Privacy policy: https://www.paddle.com/legal/privacy 5. Usage analytics (opt-in, off by default) Optional and disabled by default. Nothing is sent unless you explicitly switch on “Usage Analytics” in the plugin settings, and you can switch it off again at any time. Service domain: https://api.wpaiworkflowautomation.com What is sent, and when: only after you opt in: an anonymous installation ID, your site URL and a hash of it, the plugin, WordPress, and PHP versions, the AI models selected in settings, and aggregate counts (how many workflows exist, how many are active, and how many executions ran and succeeded in the last 30 days). It is sent when the plugin is activated or deactivated and roughly once a day while enabled. No personal data, API keys, prompts, workflow content, or execution content is sent.
