Will it overwrite my existing descriptions?

Only after you approve each change. You see the before and after for every product, and nothing writes back to WordPress until you confirm — so your current copy is safe until you decide to replace it.

Do I need a plugin to connect?

No plugin to install. WooCommerce already ships the REST API, so you just generate a key pair under Settings → Advanced → REST API and paste it in.

Does it work with Yoast and Rank Math?

Yes. We generate meta titles and descriptions formatted for the SEO plugin you use, so the output drops into Yoast or Rank Math fields without reformatting.

The connection uses a WooCommerce API key you create and can revoke at any time from your store. We request only read/write access to products and never need your WordPress admin password.

WooCommerce Integration

Improve every WooCommerce product without leaving your data behind

Connect your store with WooCommerce REST keys, enhance descriptions, images, and SEO in bulk, and sync the results back to WordPress — your store stays the single source of truth.

What you get

A direct line to your WooCommerce catalog

Read your products, improve them at scale, and write the results back into WordPress without touching a spreadsheet.

REST API connection

Read and write to your store

Generate a read/write key pair in WooCommerce, paste it in, and we connect directly to your live catalog over the official REST API.

Bulk enhancement

Your full catalog in one pass

Import every product, then rewrite descriptions, clean up images, and generate SEO across the whole store in a single batch.

Two-way sync

Back into WordPress

Approved content writes straight into the matching product fields in WordPress — short description, long description, and alt text — with no copy-paste.

SEO that fits your stack

Yoast, Rank Math, or core

Generate the meta titles and descriptions your store needs, formatted to drop into the SEO plugin you already run.

Setup

Connect WooCommerce in minutes

Generate one API key pair in your store and you are ready to import and enhance.

1
Open the REST API settings
In WooCommerce, go to Settings → Advanced → REST API. This is where WordPress manages app access to your store.
2
Generate a read/write key
Create a new key with read/write permission. WooCommerce gives you a Consumer Key and Consumer Secret — copy both.
3
Paste your keys into StartDescribe
Enter your store URL along with the Consumer Key and Secret to link the two accounts.
4
Import your products
We pull your catalog in over the REST API — products, descriptions, and images, ready to work on.
5
Enhance and sync back
Run your enhancements, review the results, and write the approved content back into WordPress.

How it fits

Built for self-hosted WooCommerce

It works the way WordPress works, so nothing here is a workaround.

Your WordPress install stays in charge

We read and write through the REST API — your store remains the source of truth, not a separate copy.

Variations and attributes included

Handles variable products and product attributes, not just the parent description.

Review before you publish

Compare before and after for each product and approve changes in bulk or individually.

Scoped, revocable keys

You control the API key and can revoke it from WooCommerce whenever you want.
