DeveloperAI-powered content refresh tool. Keep your WordPress posts accurate and ranking with Claude, OpenAI, or Gemini. Unlimited refreshes — free, forever.
CRAI Content Updater keeps your WordPress content accurate, competitive, and ranking.
Over time, blog posts go stale: prices change, statistics become outdated, year references age, and SEO meta loses relevance. CRAI Content Updater uses the AI provider of your choice to research current facts and refresh outdated content — saving every change as a draft for your review before anything goes live.
Your original content never changes without your approval.
How It Works
- Pick any published post or page from the Refresh Content tab
- Choose what to update: facts, dates, prices, reviews, SEO metadata, or tone
- The AI reads, diagnoses, and refreshes your content, saving it as a draft
- Review the changes, approve, and the live post updates — or discard it
Key Features
- Unlimited Content Refreshes — Refresh as many posts as you want, as often as you want. No caps, no monthly limits, no license keys.
- Draft Review Workflow — Every update saves as a draft. Your live post never changes until you explicitly approve it.
- Multi-Provider Support — Works with Claude (Anthropic), OpenAI (GPT-4o), Gemini Paid, and Gemini Free. Bring your own API key.
- Gemini Free Built-In — Works out of the box with a free Google Gemini API key. No credit card required to get started.
- Bulk Refresh — Select multiple posts and refresh them sequentially in the background.
- Freshness Scoring — Posts sorted by staleness so you always know what needs attention first.
- Elementor Support — Widget-by-widget updates preserve your Elementor layout.
- Update History — Full log of every AI refresh with before/after word counts and change summaries.
- Performance Analytics — Track post-refresh view trends with built-in pageview tracking (no third-party services).
What Can Be Refreshed
- Dates and time references — “in 2022” -> “currently”
- Facts, statistics, and data — outdated figures updated with current values
- Prices and product information — pricing and feature lists kept current
- Review scores and ratings — star ratings, pros/cons, verdicts updated
- SEO title and meta description — rewritten with current year and keyword
- Tone and readability — shorter paragraphs, active voice, filler words removed
External Services
This plugin connects to AI provider APIs to perform content analysis and rewriting. AI processing happens on the provider’s servers — that is the core function of the plugin.
You choose which provider to use and supply your own API key. Supported providers:
- Anthropic Claude — anthropic.com · Terms of Service · Privacy Policy
- OpenAI — openai.com · Terms of Service · Privacy Policy
- Google Gemini (paid and free tier) — ai.google.dev · Terms of Service · Privacy Policy
What is sent: When you trigger a refresh, the plugin sends the post title, post content, focus keyword (if available), and your selected update preferences to the AI provider you have configured. The provider’s response is saved locally as a WordPress draft.
What is NOT sent: Nothing is sent to CRAI servers. API keys and post content stay between your site and the AI provider you select. The plugin does not phone home, collect telemetry, or transmit any data to third parties beyond your chosen AI provider.
API keys are stored in the WordPress options table on your own database.
Pro Version
A separate, paid Pro plugin is available at contentrefreshai.com. The Pro plugin is hosted independently — it is not part of, and not unlockable from, this free plugin. The free plugin’s code is fully functional with no hidden or locked features.
Requirements
- An API key from your chosen AI provider (Google Gemini has a free tier — no credit card required)
- WordPress 5.8 or higher
- PHP 7.4 or higher
