Description
CitePin helps your business get cited by AI answer engines (ChatGPT, Claude, Google AI) and win local search. From your WordPress dashboard you can:
- Generate full articles — turn a topic/keyword into a complete, AEO-optimized article saved as a draft.
- Run a Local / Google Business Profile audit — get a local score, profile breakdown, and prioritized fixes.
- Build local citations — get a NAP kit, the exact directories to submit to, and ready-to-paste listing descriptions.
- Import drafts from CitePin — pull any article you generated in CitePin in as a WordPress draft. Works even on sites that block incoming REST connections, because the plugin reaches out to CitePin and saves the draft locally.
Generated content is created as a standard WordPress draft, so it inherits your theme’s styling automatically.
A free CitePin account is required (a Pro plan is required for content generation and audits). Get an API key at https://app.citepin.com Account API key.
External services
This plugin connects to the CitePin API (https://app.citepin.com) to generate content and run audits. This is required for the plugin to function.
- What is sent, and when: When you click « Generate » the plugin sends the topic/keyword, content type, audience, and your site URL. When you click « Run audit » it sends the business name, city, category, and your site URL. Requests are sent only when you take those actions, and are authenticated with the API key you enter in Settings.
