FAQ
-
Is the Google Gemini API key free?
-
Yes, Google provides a generous free tier that is more than enough for most websites. It allows for thousands of summaries per month at no cost.
-

No. The plugin only sends the text of a post to the Google AI API for the purpose of generating a summary. The summary is then stored in your site’s database to prevent repeated API calls. Your original content is not stored or shared elsewhere.
