SEO-optimized, every time

Built from what you’ve written.

Why it matters

Your title and meta description are often the first thing someone sees about your page, before they’ve read a single word of it. Getting them right takes real thought: they need to be accurate, inviting, and the right length, all at once. That’s a lot to ask when you’re also trying to finish the post itself.

AI Generate takes that first draft off your plate, so you can spend your time on the content instead.

AI Generate works wherever you need it

Large content libraries

Write metadata for hundreds of published pages, without opening each one individually with the Bulk Editor.

Blog and content teams

Generate a title and description the moment a post is finished, so publishing never stalls waiting on wordsmithing.

Agencies managing multiple sites

Get solid metadata in place on a new client site fast, without burning billable hours on titles and descriptions.

Product catalogs

With ecommerce plans*, generate titles and descriptions across a growing product range, not just posts and pages.

Social sharing

Generate social titles and descriptions in the same click, so shared links look as polished as search results.

Seasonal or campaign content

Spin up on-brand metadata fast when a sale, launch, or seasonal push means publishing more than usual.

Pro tip!
Make sure the introduction mentions the main topic of your page’s content in order to optimize meta descriptions and titles. The introduction is where most of the information for your generated results is collected, so this is one more reason to ensure it is well-written.
