Biggest opportunity: Swap “ai” and “content writing” for “translating” and “writing”. “ai” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “translating” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “content writing” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “writing” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →1.3%
of downloads still active
At least 30 of 2.4K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median AI plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,009 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other AI plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 3 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| copywriting your tag | #10 | #13 | 0 |
| translating | #12 | #24 | 0 |
| writing | #18 | #24 | 0 |
| ai copywriting | #14 | #15 | up 1 |
| ai your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| content writing your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| openai your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| translation your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
17 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 4 listed. 13 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- Swap “ai” and “content writing” for “translating” and “writing”. “ai” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “translating” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “content writing” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “writing” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

Planet 9 adds powerful AI features in a very simple and user-friendly way. I’ve been using both the copywriter (Teller) and the translator (Linus), and they work exceptionally well. One of my favorite features is the knowledge base. It allows you to provide specific guidance to the AI without needing to repeat prompts each time. Although the plugin is still in Beta and there’s still room for improvement, it already delivers on its promises. I’m excited to see how it evolves and will definitely keep using it in my projects. Highly recommended!

Planet9 runs smoothly, adds a convenient AI toolbar to text fields, and makes writing or translating content super easy. You’ll need an OpenAI API key, but after that it’s plug-and-play. No fuss, no tracking, just a smart assistant that saves you time. Highly recommended!

Feels like it was made with real WordPress users in mind. I mostly use Linus, the translation agent, and it works exactly as expected — fast, accurate, and easy to use. The whole plugin is lightweight, intuitive, and genuinely helpful. There are still a few minor UX improvements to be made, but since the plugin is still in Beta, I expect these will be refined quickly.
