System - AI Meta

Generate SEO-ready meta descriptions in seconds

Writing meta descriptions for every article on your Joomla site takes forever, and let's be honest - you usually skip it or write something lazy. System - AI Meta generates professional, SEO-optimized meta descriptions and keywords automatically using AI. Click one button, and your content gets proper meta tags that actually help your search rankings.

Overview

Proof

AI Meta Buttons
System - AI Meta Buttons
  • Free and open source - No subscription fees, no limits
  • One-click generation - Literally just click "AI Generate" in your admin panel
  • Works with your AI - Supports Ollama (free, local) and OpenAI-compatible APIs (everyone else)
  • Active development

How It Works

You connect the plugin to an AI service (like Ollama running on your computer, or OpenAI's API), then create prompts that tell the AI how to write your meta descriptions. The plugin uses dialog-based prompting - you set up a conversation template once, using placeholders like %title% and %article%. After that, when you're editing an article in Joomla, you click "AI Generate" and the plugin fills in your template with the actual content and sends it to the AI. If you don't like the result, click "Regenerate" and tell it what to change.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Does this cost money?

The plugin is completely free. If you use Ollama (also free), you have zero ongoing costs. If you use OpenAI's API, you pay their rates—usually pennies per article.

Is this hard to set up?

You configure an AI connection (endpoint URL, maybe an API key) and create prompts using dialog-based prompting. The documentation includes working example prompts you can copy and customize. If you've used ChatGPT, you already understand the concept. Most people are generating meta descriptions within 20 minutes.

Will this write garbage AI content?

You control the prompts and can regenerate instantly if you don't like something. You're still in charge, the AI just saves you time writing the same type of content over and over.

Do I need technical knowledge?

If you can install a Joomla plugin, you can use this. The hardest part is installing Ollama if you want free local AI, and that's literally one installer download.
