We’re excited to announce the release of our official Koala AI WordPress Plugin – a powerful new tool designed to streamline your content publishing workflow.
Why We Built This Plugin
Over 10,000 WordPress sites have used our REST API integration and while it has served many of you well, we wanted to take your publishing experience to the next level.
The new plugin addresses common pain points and introduces several advanced features that were technically impossible with the standard REST API alone. Now you can enjoy a more integrated, feature-rich experience between Koala AI and your WordPress site.
New Features
These features work whether you use our new plugin or the classic REST API integration:
- AI-Powered Category Selection – Smart AI categorization that analyzes your content and assigns relevant categories
- Automatic Gutenberg Block Conversion – Properly formatted blocks for headings, paragraphs, lists, images, YouTube videos, and more
- Post Status Control – Publish as draft, published, pending review, or private
These features are only available when using our plugin:
- Author Selection – Choose any author on your site for each post
- Post Type Selection – Create posts, pages, or custom post types
- Automatic Image Upload – Images are uploaded directly to your WordPress media library
- Featured Image Setting – Automatically set the first image as your featured image
- Bulk Import Tool – Import images from existing posts with one click
