A "plug-in" is meant to plug into something, and so to have the right shape of plug (USB-C vs HDMI, for instance) and be able to handle the flow of data (USB protocol vs HDMI protocol). As far as I can tell from their Web page, they can work as a plugin with Adobe products and that's it (even if they say "You can use Topaz Photo AI either as standalone software, or directly from most photo editors.", which is a bit preposterous).
It appears that you can use the Topaze product as an independent application., and there is a shellout.py Gimp plugin that can start another application on a Gimp layer. I don't have it, but I'm sure that Rich will come along and take it out of his treasure chest.
