FAQ

Do I need an AI provider account to use this plugin?

No. Every AI feature is optional and off by default until you connect an Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini or OpenRouter account with your own API key. All core SEO features — meta tags, schema, robots.txt, llms.txt, importers and the ACF integration — work fully without any AI provider.

Does it conflict with Yoast SEO, Rank Math or other SEO plugins?

Acez SEO AI detects other active SEO plugins and stops printing its own meta tags, canonical URLs and sitemap/llms.txt entries where they would duplicate what the other plugin already outputs. You can safely run it alongside another plugin during a migration.

Is the free version limited or a trial?

No. The free version is fully functional, not time-limited and not feature-capped. The optional Pro add-on adds extra tools — redirects, bulk AI, Search Console dashboards, premium schema types and AI linking — and never removes anything from the free version.

What data does the plugin send to third parties?

Only what you explicitly configure, such as your AI provider once you connect one. There is no telemetry and no data collection beyond that.
