First Product Enhancement

aCommerce AI helps you turn raw product details into copy that is easier to scan, easier to understand, and more likely to convert.

Step 1: Open a WooCommerce Product

Navigate to Products → All Products and edit any product. You'll see the aCommerce AI meta box in the sidebar.

Step 2: Click "Optimise"

The plugin sends your product details to the aCommerce AI service and generates a set of suggestions you can review before applying:

1. A stronger title: Clearer, more search-friendly wording that still reads naturally to shoppers.
2. A better description: A structured, skimmable product description that highlights benefits and answers common buyer questions.
3. Highlights you can reuse: Benefit-led bullets and supporting details you can copy into your page, emails, or ads.

Step 3: Review and Apply

Review the generated content in the meta box. You can:

• Apply the optimised title directly to the product title field.
• Apply the optimised description to the product description.
• Copy individual sections (highlights, FAQ, specs) for manual placement.
• Regenerate if you want a different variation.

AI Visibility Files

Pro Feature

AI Visibility tools help AI assistants and crawlers understand your store so your products, categories, and policies are represented more accurately in AI-driven discovery.

• Store summary for AI assistants: Create a concise, machine-readable overview of what you sell and where key information lives.
• Agent-friendly discovery: Describe supported browsing paths and key pages so automated agents can navigate cleanly.
• Crawler guidance: Keep crawl rules up to date without clobbering your existing directives.
• Sitemap updates: Ensure important pages and assets are easy to discover and index.

Overwrite vs. Merge

By default, generated assets are merged with existing content where possible. You can enable overwrite if you prefer to replace an existing file entirely.

Structured Data

Pro Feature

Structured data helps search engines and shopping platforms understand your products and display richer listings.

Richer product listings

Add product details like price, availability, and ratings so your listings can stand out in search results.

FAQ rich results

Turn common buyer questions into structured FAQ data, improving visibility and trust in search.

Shopping-ready product data

Generate product fields commonly used by shopping platforms so your catalog is easier to syndicate.

SEO Plugin Compatibility

aCommerce AI detects Yoast SEO and Rank Math. When either is active, the plugin automatically defers schema output to avoid duplicate markup conflicts.

2. You'll receive a license key via email.
