More about OpenAI

OpenAI for your WordPress newsletter: text and images

Your OpenAI WordPress newsletter in MailerPress Pro: GPT-5.4 writes the copy and GPT Image 2.0 creates the visuals.

  • Text models: GPT-5.4, GPT-5.4 Mini or GPT-5.4 Nano for writing.
  • Image model: GPT Image 2.0 creates the visuals of your emails.
  • Your own key: you connect your own OpenAI API key.
  • Direct requests: sent from your site straight to OpenAI, billed to your OpenAI account.
  • No credits: there are no MailerPress AI credits to buy.

Requires MailerPress Pro.

Write and rewrite inside the email editor

Draft, shorten or translate copy next to your blocks, and nothing changes in your email until you apply the result.

  • Write with AI: a chat beside your text block, for a product announcement or a warmer tone.
  • AI actions: summarize, expand, adjust the tone or fix spelling on Text, Heading, Button and List blocks.
  • Ask AI: any instruction, such as “translate into Spanish”.
  • Apply: your email changes only when you click Apply.

Subject lines, A/B variations and automations

OpenAI suggests what subscribers see first in the inbox, rewrites your A/B copy and builds workflows from a description.

  • Subject and preview: Generate with AI suggests up to 60 and 130 characters from your content.
  • A/B variation: copy and calls to action rewritten, design kept.
  • Create with AI: describe an automation and get the workflow.
  • Example: “tag new subscribers and send them a welcome email two days later”.
  • Missing details: the AI asks questions before building the workflow.

Email images, saved to your Media Library

Describe a visual in an Image block, refine it, then insert it in your email from the Media Library.

  • AI generation: click it in an Image block and describe the visual.
  • Formats: 1:1, 2:3 or 3:2.
  • Variations: refine with a request like “warmer colors, same layout”, then compare the versions.
  • Use this image: uploads it to the Media Library and inserts it.
  • Existing images: start from an image already in your email.

Requires MailerPress Pro 2.1.0+.

Set it up

Paste your OpenAI key in the AI settings, then decide how much AI the site can use each month.

  • Where: MailerPress > Settings > AI Settings.
  • Two keys: paste it under Text AI and again under Image AI, each view stores its own.
  • Limit AI: under AI Usage, one cap for the whole site.
  • Example cap: 500 AI actions and 100 images per month.
  • Permissions: only administrators can use AI by default.
