WordPress plugin · free & open source
The more plugins you add, the less you control: maintenance you endure, risk you can't see, performance that slips. StormPress is the layer that makes your sites legible — plugins, security, content, internal links — and hands the decisions back to you.
2-minute install · no credit card · disable in one click.
How many plugins are running on this site?
StormPress counts them, and names the ones that overlap.
Which one is no longer maintained?
It’s already at the top of the list.
And on the other nineteen sites?
Same console. Same answer.
More than 60,000 plugins in the official ecosystem. How many are you carrying? WordPress.org Plugin Directory
Zip downloaded and activated from wp-admin, like any other plugin. Two minutes, zero server configuration.
StormeoOS account optional. Add your Anthropic or OpenAI keys if you want the copilot — everything else works without it.
Dashboard, ⌘K, content graph: the site's state is legible from the first load, not after a learning curve.
What's inside
StormPress doesn't replace your ecosystem: it makes it legible. A React application served from your own site, without touching WordPress core, that switches off in one click.
Posts, pages, media, settings, commands. Type, pick, done. Slash commands extend in ten lines of JavaScript.
Your site's internal linking as an animated graph: hubs, orphans, missing links. Asynchronous rebuild above 300 items, six-hour cache.
Folders, tags, MIME filters, drag-and-drop upload, storage metrics. In Pro: StormCloud CDN.
PHP-served service worker, customisable manifest. Your admin on the phone's home screen, readable offline.
API keys encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM), signed JWTs, per-object permission checks, a confined file explorer. 219 automated tests on every release.
AI copilot
The StormPress copilot has tools: publish, move a media file, suggest links, read stats. It loops through up to ten actions per request, with your Anthropic or OpenAI keys, rate-limited to twenty requests per minute per user.
Every tool declares the WordPress capability it needs: the copilot never does more than the logged-in user could.
stormpress_register_ai_tool( [
'name' => 'schedule_post',
'description' => 'Schedule a post for a date.',
'parameters' => [ 'type' => 'object', 'properties' => [
'id' => [ 'type' => 'integer' ],
'date' => [ 'type' => 'string' ],
] ],
'capability' => 'publish_posts', // never more than the user
'handler' => 'my_schedule_post',
] );
Your site's Abilities API become copilot tools, and the connector speaks MCP: Claude Desktop, Cursor or Claude Code see your WordPress as a tool, no SDK to install.
Compare
The market sells admin, AI, media and internal linking separately. StormPress ships them together, and adds what nobody else offers: a multi-site console for agencies.

FAQ
No. StormPress is a regular plugin built on public hooks and the REST API. Deactivate it and wp-admin comes back as it was. Your content, media and settings never move.
Not for Lite, Pro Solo or Pro Studio. The multi-site console in the Agency plan runs on StormeoOS, the operating system for web agencies built by the same team.
Your Anthropic or OpenAI keys are stored encrypted (AES-256-GCM) in your database, with a key derived from your wp-config. Requests go from your server to the provider you chose. StormPress sends nothing to Stormeo unless you explicitly enable the connector.
OpenStation opens wp-admin screens in windows. StormPress replaces those screens with a purpose-built back office, adds a copilot that executes actions, the content graph, organised media and a multi-site console. Both can coexist.
Builders (Elementor, Gutenberg, Bricks) open inside StormPress through an iframe bridge. WooCommerce: orders and products on the dashboard. Yoast: SEO metadata read and edited on each content item.
StormPress doesn't necessarily replace them. It governs the whole: which plugins you carry, which are redundant or poorly maintained, what to handle first. The value is the consolidated read, not one more brick.
Fair question. StormPress is only worth it if it reduces the number of decisions you make blind. If it adds an interface without clarifying anything, it has failed.
Managed hosting covers infrastructure: uptime, backups, sometimes core updates. StormPress covers site governance: plugins, content, application-level risk and team practice.
GPL v2 or later, like WordPress. You pay for updates, support and the Pro service licence, not for the right to run the code.
