About this plugin
CBIAStudio BlogFlow with AI helps WordPress site owners generate AI-assisted article content and a featured image while retaining control over what WordPress saves or publishes.
For individual posts, the Posts > Create with AI flow creates a reviewable preview draft. You can then publish it, keep it as a draft, or schedule it. For title queues, the Blog screen supports checkpointed batches with STOP, resume, and live logs.

- One generated featured image per post
- Reviewable preview drafts with publish, draft, and scheduling choices
- Checkpointed batch generation with STOP, resume, and live logs
- Automatic category and tag assignment from configured rules and title/content signals

Supported AI providers
Text generation supports:

DeepSeek and Anthropic are text-only providers in the free plugin. You supply the API keys for the providers you use, and provider charges are governed by their own terms and pricing.
Typical workflow
- Open
CBIAStudio BlogFlow with AI > Settings. - Select the text and image providers and models you want to use, then save the corresponding API keys.
- Configure content options and any category or tag rules you need.
- For one post, open
Posts > Create with AI, generate a preview draft, review the content and metadata, and then choose whether to publish, keep the draft, or schedule it. - For multiple titles, open
CBIAStudio BlogFlow with AI > Blog, start the batch, and monitor its live log and checkpoint status.
Usage and cost reporting
The Usage screen records generation activity and locally calculated costs. Events and charts can be filtered by provider and model. The monthly view always covers the latest 12 calendar months, including months with no recorded usage.
Cost figures depend on the usage evidence returned by each provider and the plugin’s local pricing catalog. They are operational estimates or calculations, not a replacement for the provider’s invoice.
Free and Pro
The free plugin works as a standalone plugin and includes the individual Posts > Create with AI workflow, title-based batches, one featured image per generated post, essential Usage reporting, and optional Yoast SEO synchronization.
CBIAStudio BlogFlow Pro separately adds internal-image workflows, old-post regeneration, advanced Usage and cost controls, and additional automation. Yoast SEO is optional in both workflows.
External services
This plugin sends requests from the WordPress site directly to a third-party AI provider only after a site administrator configures that provider and runs a connection test or an action that uses it. The configured API key is sent to the selected provider for authentication. CBIA Studio does not proxy these provider requests.
The content sent depends on the selected action. Connection tests use authentication and minimal test/model parameters. Generation actions can send titles, system instructions, prompt templates or custom instructions, image prompts, selected models, and generation settings. Provider usage is billed under the provider’s own terms.
