🤙 AgentWP in Public Beta

After announcing AgentWP in alpha back in March (see The Pier #40), the expert AI assistant for your WordPress site is now in public beta, with a focus on conversational assistance. While AgentWP can help you with site-specific insights, it won’t currently perform actions directly on your site, such as running SQL, navigating, or executing tasks.

Current free features include vision integration, coding support, content creation and site understanding, which are available for free and use premium AI models from Google, OpenAI and Anthropic. Early bird pricing available.

By the way, two years ago, they launched an AI IDE tailored for WordPress called CodeWP, which helps developers generate code and will soon be integrated with AgentWP.
