- In the “AI Descriptions” meta box, they select a generation target and tone
- The plugin sends the product context to the API
- The generated text appears in the meta box for preview
- The administrator accepts or edits the text before saving

Generation targets
Section titled “Generation targets”The meta box on the product edit screen lets you choose what text should be generated:
| Target | Description |
|---|---|
| Full description | The main product description (post_content) |
| Short description | The product excerpt (post_excerpt) |
| SEO title | The meta title for search engines |
| SEO meta description | The meta description for search engines |
SEO titles and descriptions are automatically saved in the fields of the relevant SEO plugin (Yoast SEO or RankMath).
Integration with SEO plugins
Section titled “Integration with SEO plugins”The module detects the installed SEO plugin and saves the generated data in the appropriate meta fields:
Yoast SEO
Section titled “Yoast SEO”- SEO title saved in
_yoast_wpseo_title - SEO meta description saved in
_yoast_wpseo_metadesc
RankMath
Section titled “RankMath”- SEO title saved in
rank_math_title - SEO meta description saved in
rank_math_description
If no SEO plugin is active, the options for generating the SEO title and meta description are unavailable.
Product context
Section titled “Product context”With each generation request, the plugin sends the following product data to the API:
- Product name - the product title
- SKU - the catalog number
- Price - the regular and sale price
- Categories - the list of product categories
- Attributes - all attributes and their values
- Existing descriptions - the current full and short description (if they exist)
This data allows the AI model to generate an accurate and contextually correct description.
Bulk generation
Section titled “Bulk generation”The module supports generating descriptions for multiple products at once:
- Go to Products > All Products
- Select the products to generate for
- From the “Bulk actions” list, choose Generate AI descriptions
- Choose the generation target and tone
- Click “Apply”
Bulk generation runs asynchronously via AJAX, each product is processed separately, and a progress bar shows the operation status. This helps avoid exceeding the server time limit with a large number of products.
Limits
Section titled “Limits”- Each task is a separate API call
- You should account for the API service’s rate-limiting limits
- With a large number of products, generation may take several minutes
Usage example
Section titled “Usage example”Generating a description for a single product
Section titled “Generating a description for a single product”- Open the product edit screen
- Scroll to the AI Descriptions meta box
- Choose the target: “Full description”
- Choose the tone: “persuasive”
- Click Generate
- Review the generated text
- Click Insert into description to move the text to the editor
Configuring a custom endpoint
Section titled “Configuring a custom endpoint”If you use a local LLM model or another provider:
- Change the API URL to your endpoint’s address (it must be compatible with the OpenAI chat/completions format)
- Set the appropriate Model (a model name recognized by your endpoint)
- Provide the API key (if required by your endpoint)
Enabling the module
Section titled “Enabling the module”The module is controlled by a toggle in the PRO module settings:
Polski > Modules > AI DescriptionsAI Act (art. 50) transparency
Section titled “AI Act (art. 50) transparency”Product copy you apply from this module is treated as AI-generated content. When you apply generated text to a product’s description or short description, the plugin:
- records a machine-readable marker on the product (
_polski_ai_generated), and - shows a short disclosure and a hidden
data-ai-generatedmarker on the single-product page.
An AI Act art. 50 badge also appears in the AI Descriptions meta box once a product is marked.
The on-page disclosure is controlled by a single option, on by default, in the free plugin’s AI settings:
WooCommerce > Settings > Polski > AI features > Label AI-generated contentTurning it off keeps the machine-readable record on the product but removes the storefront note. SEO title and meta description targets are not flagged, because they are not rendered as visible product copy.
