Mate Connector is the official connector plugin for WPMate (wpmate.ai).
WPMate lets you manage this site by chatting with your AI assistant:
- Write new posts and pages, rewrite existing ones, and schedule posts for later (drafts first, with preview links)
- Upload images, set featured images and fill in missing alt text
- Write SEO titles, meta descriptions and focus keyphrases through Yoast, Rank Math, AIOSEO or SEOPress
- Run read-only SEO and security audits that tell you what to improve
Publishing, scheduling and trashing wait for your approval in the WPMate dashboard. Every content edit keeps a WordPress revision so it can be undone.
Mate Connector works with content only. WPMate never acts as an administrator: connecting creates a restricted “WPMate” user (WPMate Editor role) that can write and edit posts, pages and media but cannot install, update or remove plugins or themes, change site code or CSS, manage users or change site settings. The WPMate user cannot log in, and disconnecting deletes it.
How it connects
- Create a free account at wpmate.ai and click “Create connection code”.
- In WordPress go to Settings WPMate, paste the code and click Connect.
- Add WPMate to Claude or ChatGPT as a connector.
No password is shared. Requests from WPMate run as the restricted WPMate user, never as an administrator. Each request is signed with a secret unique to your site and is rejected if it is unsigned, older than five minutes or reused.
External service
This plugin connects to the WPMate service at https://wpmate.ai, operated by PILOTLAB LLC (Wyoming, USA), which you sign up for separately. When you connect, the plugin sends this site’s address, name, WordPress version and plugin version to WPMate. Afterwards WPMate sends signed requests to this site when you ask your AI assistant to do something. Terms: https://wpmate.ai/terms. Privacy: https://wpmate.ai/privacy.
Privacy
Mate Connector stores a connection secret and the WPMate site ID in this site’s options and creates the restricted WPMate user described below. It contacts WPMate only when you click Connect. After that, WPMate contacts this site with signed requests when you ask your AI assistant to do something; each action and its result are logged in your WPMate dashboard. Disconnecting (Settings WPMate, or deleting the plugin) removes the stored secret.
