The Problem

Small website owners can now create plugins and modify WordPress sites with AI, but they often lack the experience to verify whether the resulting code is secure, compatible, and maintainable. When a theme, plugin, or custom change fails, locating the responsible file and applying a safe fix remains difficult. General-purpose AI can suggest changes, but it cannot reliably assume responsibility for testing, backups, deployment, and recovery.

Potential Solution

Offer an on-demand WordPress repair service combining AI-assisted diagnosis with human review and implementation. Customers submit a problem or proposed AI-generated change, and the service reproduces it in a staging environment, creates a backup, reviews the code, tests the repair, and deploys it with a rollback plan. Begin with fixed-price repair tickets and add recurring maintenance for customers needing ongoing support.

Why Now?

AI is enabling less-technical owners to make deeper WordPress changes and create custom plugins, increasing both experimentation and the need for dependable verification. A service can launch immediately using existing hosting, staging, backup, and code-review tools.

Helpful and productive I’ve been very happy with the results thus far. I know code, but when dealing with wordpress and themes, sometimes it’s a challenge to know exactly where something is to fix or adjust. This plugin has helped me save tons of time by informing me of what the problem is if I don’t already know, where the problem is, how to fix it, and if I want it to fix it for me. I appreciate the safeguards giving me the option to do it manually or allow AI to do it for me. Regardless of whichever I choose, it’s a huget time saver. Keep up the great work. I look forward to it improving even more.

That I think it's a little… It's a harder, transition, for sure. Yeah. so I'll say that. It wasn't until I had made some space for myself to actually explore. But the way that I have been using it, I'm still a weird stickler about, coding. 'Cause, my website is It's, really basic. And I built it myself, so I don't wanna throw all that away.

Free Cities Podcast I might try and sort of iterate the, AI is saying to you, yeah, I'll tell you what, I'll do a bit of research and I'll come back to you. Right. I mean, you were experimenting with the coding side of it quite intensely. Yes. Even me now, like I wrote a website last week, a new website. You know, I'm really terrible at this and already I can do it. And part of that process was creating a plugin for WordPress, which it did like that. I didn't even know you could do that. I thought, you know, I'd have to get a developer to do that side of it. No, it created all the elements of it. And I'm just, I would say I'm the control because I'm not very AI savvy, but already I can do stuff.
