These extensions use artificial intelligence (AI), such as OpenAI/ChatGPT, to speed up and improve content creation and optimisation.

AI SEO Helper The "AI SEO Helper" extension from passionweb integrates the power of OpenAI (ChatGPT) directly into the TYPO3 backend to assist with search engine optimisation (SEO). By connecting via an OpenAI API key, this extension allows editors to generate suggestions for SEO-related fields with a single click. This includes a page's meta title, meta description, Open Graph and Twitter titles and descriptions, and SEO title. For this, the extension analyses the content of the page in question and makes relevant and optimised suggestions based on it.

The main advantage is the huge efficiency and quality improvement for editors who are not necessarily SEO specialists. Writing catchy and effective meta tags manually can be time-consuming and cumbersome. This tool takes that work off your hands, speeds up the process considerably and helps create high-quality, consistent SEO texts. This can directly contribute to better visibility and higher rankings in search engines like Google.

AI Suite Autodudes' "AI Suite" extension is a comprehensive collection of tools that integrates artificial intelligence, mainly via OpenAI, deep into the TYPO3 content management system. The extension offers a wide range of functionalities, such as generating, summarising or rewriting texts directly in the Rich Text Editor. In addition, it can help to devise page titles, generate images based on description (with DALL-E) and automatically populate image metadata such as alt text and description.

The advantage of the "AI Suite" is its transformation of the content creation workflow. It acts as a creative and productive assistant for editors. Complex or time-consuming tasks, such as writing new content, adapting writing style or creating unique images, are greatly simplified. This not only increases productivity, but also opens up new creative possibilities directly within the familiar TYPO3 environment, improving the overall quality and richness of website content.

AI Filemetadata mfd's "AI Filemetadata" extension is a powerful tool that uses artificial intelligence, via a connection to LLMs such as OpenAI, to automatically generate metadata for files in the TYPO3 File Abstraction Layer (FAL). When an editor uploads a new file (such as an image), the extension can analyse the image and automatically populate fields such as the alt text, title and description based on it. This process can be configured to happen immediately upon upload or triggered manually.

The main benefit of this extension is the huge improvement in terms of efficiency, accessibility and SEO. Manually filling in metadata for each image is a time-consuming task that is often skipped, which is detrimental to both search engines and visually impaired users who rely on screen readers. "AI Filemetadata" automates this crucial process, ensures consistent and relevant descriptions, saves editors a lot of time and improves the overall quality and findability of the website.

These extensions streamline the process of translation and localisation within TYPO3, which is essential for multilingual websites.

Autotranslate

The "autotranslate" extension for TYPO3, developed by thieleundklose, allows editors to automatically translate pages and content elements using the DeepL API. This saves considerable time and reduces the risk of errors when manually transferring content. The extension is configurable by language and can be set to perform translations in batches. This is particularly useful for multilingual websites where content needs to be updated consistently and quickly.

The biggest advantage of this extension is the efficiency improvement in the content management process. Instead of manually copying and pasting texts into a translation service and then re-inserting them into TYPO3, this is now done at the click of a button. This streamlines the workflow for editors and ensures that new content is quickly available in all target languages. Moreover, the extension supports the use of glossaries, helping to ensure consistent terminology across the website.

Translate Locallang

The "Translate Locallang" extension is a very practical tool for developers and administrators of multilingual TYPO3 installations. This extension adds a backend module that makes it possible to automatically translate XLIFF files (locallang.xlf) used for translating labels in the backend and in extensions. At the press of a button, an entire file can be translated into one or more target languages, using DeepL's free API.

The big advantage of this extension is the huge time savings when localising a TYPO3 project. Manually translating hundreds of labels is a monotonous and time-consuming process. "Translate Locallang" completely automates this task. This allows developers and administrators to set up and maintain a multilingual backend or custom extension much faster, significantly reducing a project's time-to-market and streamlining the translation workflow.

This selection of extensions improves website loading speed and the efficiency of managing media, such as images.

Image Jack

"Image Jack" from sitegeist is an extension that focuses on image optimisation. It can optimise existing JPG, GIF and PNG files during the processing process in TYPO3. One of its key features is the ability to automatically generate a WebP copy of each processed image. WebP is a modern image format that has a significantly smaller file size than traditional formats, while maintaining high image quality.

The advantage of "Image Jack" is the significant performance improvement of the website. Smaller image files lead to faster load times, which is essential for both user experience and SEO. By using next-gen formats such as WebP, websites can load faster without sacrificing the visual quality of the images. The extension automates this process, making it easy for editors and developers to optimise image performance.

Sourceopt

The "sourceopt" extension, developed by lochmueller, aims to optimise the HTML source code generated by TYPO3. The extension can reformat the final HTML output by removing unnecessary white space, comments and the "generator" meta tag. In addition, it can perform search-and-replace operations using regular expressions and combine SVG images into a single <symbol> file.

The main benefit of "sourceopt" is the improvement of website loading speed. By shrinking the HTML code, the file size of the page is reduced, resulting in faster loading times for visitors. This has a positive effect on the user experience and can also contribute to better search engine rankings. The ability to optimise SVGs further contributes to this.

Sync Crop Areas

The "sync_crop_areas" extension from jweiland is a useful tool for managing images in TYPO3, especially when using different aspect ratios for responsive display. When an editor creates a crop for an image, for example for
