Description

Nomad Pipeline Audio to Draft helps editors turn audio notes into post drafts.

Draft generation requires at least one configured WordPress AI connector. If no connector is available, the plugin can stay active but generation requests will return provider errors.

Free version includes:

Audio selection from Media Library
Supported file types: MP3, OGG, WAV, M4A, AAC, FLAC
Draft generation from audio (AI pipeline)
Language, tone, and target length defaults
Proper noun hints
Insert mode: append or replace
Auto-apply generated title
Editor flow updates the current post
WordPress 7.1 lifecycle support with anti-abuse rate limiting for ability runs
Ability invocation telemetry hook support (safe metadata only)
Usage counters in editor sidebar (daily/monthly calls and token totals)
Usage analytics section in plugin settings (daily/monthly calls and token totals)
Clear total-token labels (token, estimated tokens, unknown tokens)

How it works:

Open a post in the block editor.
Open the Nomad Pipeline Audio to Draft sidebar.
Select an audio file from Media Library.
Click “Generate draft from audio”.

The plugin generates content blocks and inserts them into the current post.

External services and data handling:

To generate a draft, the plugin sends the selected audio payload and selected editorial options to the configured WordPress AI connector.
Data processing, retention, and model behavior are managed by the active connector/provider, not by this plugin.
This plugin does not add its own analytics tracker or advertising pixel.
Site owners should review the privacy policy and terms of the selected AI connector/provider before production use.
