Buy lifetime — from $79 See how it works

Free version on WordPress.org · 14-day refund · GPL v2

$79 once

Not $200/month forever.

Your API key

Pay OpenAI direct, ~$0.02 to index 1,000 products.

Self-hosted

No proxies. No data leaves your WordPress.

Smart search in three steps.

No servers to provision, no integrations to wire, no monthly invoices. Install, paste, search.

  1. ①

    Install from WordPress.org

    Search "AI Search BYOK" in the plugins screen, click install, activate. Same as any other WP plugin.

  2. ②

    Paste your OpenAI key

    Settings page accepts your OpenAI API key. We never see it. Click "Index catalog" — done in 60 seconds for most stores.

  3. ③

    Shoppers find what they mean

    Storefront search now understands "gift for a coffee lover" and "comfy summer top under $40." Search-driven sales rise.

Why pay subscription tax for a feature you can own?

SaaS search products charge you forever. We charge once. The AI cost goes directly to your provider — usually a few dollars a month.

Frequently asked questions

Why is this so much cheaper than Klevu / Algolia? +

Because we don't host anything. The plugin runs entirely inside your WordPress, calling OpenAI with your key. We charge once for the software; you pay OpenAI directly for the AI (typical store: under $5/month total).

Is my customer data safe? +

Yes. Embeddings live in your WordPress database. Nothing transmits to us. Our license server only ever receives your license key — never your products or shopper queries.

What does the AI cost in practice? +

Indexing 1,000 products with text-embedding-3-small runs about $0.02. Each search query is roughly $0.0001. A store with 10,000 searches per month spends about $1.

What's the refund policy? +

14-day no-questions-asked refund. Email support@aisearchbyok.com with your order number.

Will it conflict with my existing search plugin? +

If you have another search plugin active, deactivate it first. Two search plugins fight for the same WordPress hooks.
