9 picksUpdated November 2026Seahawk products marked "Ours"

SeedProd

Best for: Generating a WordPress site or landing page from a short prompt

SeedProd's AI builder creates a WordPress site from a description of the business, then hands it to the same drag-and-drop editor used for its landing pages and themes. AI also writes and rewrites copy and generates images inside the editor.

Pros
  • AI site generation that ends in a normal, editable WordPress site
  • AI copy and images inside the builder
  • Coming-soon and maintenance modes built in
Cons
  • AI features need a paid plan or credits
  • Smaller ecosystem than Elementor

Beaver Builder

Best for: Agencies that want AI layouts they can still edit by hand

Beaver Builder AI is a plugin from the Beaver Builder team that generates fully editable layouts from a chat, in Beaver Builder or the block editor, and can rework a single section on request. It is included with Plus plans and above.

Pros
  • Generates native, editable Beaver Builder and block layouts
  • Edit one section at a time by chat
  • From a builder known for stability
Cons
  • Needs a Plus plan or higher
  • Newer than the AI tools in Elementor

Bricks

Best for: Developers who want AI agents to build inside a clean-code builder

Bricks takes the agent route: Bricks 2.4 added experimental AI abilities, registered through the WordPress Abilities API, so MCP clients such as Claude Code, Cursor and Copilot can create and edit Bricks content directly.

Pros
  • AI agents can build and edit Bricks pages over MCP
  • Clean markup and strong performance
  • One-time licence option
Cons
  • AI abilities are marked experimental
  • Needs an MCP client and some setup

KadenceWP

Best for: Block editor sites with AI-written starter content

Kadence AI is built into the Kadence theme and Kadence Blocks. You describe the business once, and its starter templates and pattern library arrive with copy and images matched to it, with inline AI writing in the editor after that.

Pros
  • AI starter templates filled with relevant copy and images
  • Built on the block editor, so output is fast and standard
  • Works with the free Kadence theme
Cons
  • AI uses credits tied to paid plans
  • Less freeform than a chat-based builder

Elementor

Best for: Elementor users who want AI inside the editor they already know

Elementor AI writes and translates copy, generates and edits images, creates containers and layouts, and writes custom CSS and code from inside the Elementor editor. Elementor also ships an official MCP connection, so outside AI clients can work on the site.

Pros
  • AI for text, images, layouts and code in one editor
  • Official Elementor MCP for outside AI clients
  • Largest ecosystem of any builder
Cons
  • AI is a separate paid subscription
  • Elementor sites still need performance care

SoftWP

Best for: Hosting customers who install WordPress through Softaculous

SoftWP is the Softaculous WordPress plugin that adds AI-powered onboarding, an AI website builder and an assistant to a fresh install, and bundles several Softaculous Pro plugins. It comes with a Softaculous licence, so many hosting customers already have it.

Pros
  • AI onboarding and site builder right after install
  • Included with a Softaculous licence at many hosts
  • Bundles Pro versions of Softaculous plugins
Cons
  • Depends on your host having Softaculous
  • AI use is metered by tokens

Spectra

Best for: Astra users building in the block editor

Spectra, from Brainstorm Force, the team behind Astra, extends the block editor with design blocks and patterns. Its AI comes from the same company: an AI assistant for writing in the editor and the ZipWP builder for generating a starter site.

Pros
  • Free block library used on over a million sites
  • AI writing help inside the block editor
  • Pairs naturally with Astra and its starter templates
Cons
  • AI credits are limited on the free tier
  • Site generation lives in a separate product

WPBakery

Best for: Sites already built on WPBakery Page Builder

WPBakery is the long-running builder bundled with many ThemeForest themes. WPBakery AI adds content generation, translation and custom code writing inside its editor, which makes it the practical choice for the many existing sites that already run on it.

Pros
  • AI content and code help without changing builders
  • Familiar to teams maintaining older theme-bundled sites
  • One-time licence for the builder
Cons
  • Shortcode-based output is harder to migrate away from
  • AI uses a separate credit allowance

10Web

Best for: WordPress users who want an AI-generated site on managed hosting

10Web generates a WordPress site from a short description or an existing URL, builds pages with its Elementor-based editor and hosts them on Google Cloud. It is one of the few AI builders that outputs a real WordPress install you can export.

Pros
  • Produces a genuine WordPress site
  • Managed hosting and performance tooling bundled
  • Can recreate an existing site from a URL
Cons
  • Tied to 10Web's hosting for the full experience
  • Elementor-based output carries Elementor's weight

AI moved into WordPress builders quickly, and the useful question is no longer whether a builder has AI but what the AI leaves you with. We kept this list to tools that end in a normal WordPress site you own and can edit by hand, and judged each on the quality of the first draft and how easy it is to refine.

How we chose

  • Ownership: the result is a standard WordPress site, not a page locked to a platform.
  • Editable output: AI layouts must open in the builder like anything made by hand.
  • Where the AI works: in the editor, in onboarding, or through outside agents over MCP.
  • Performance of the generated pages.
  • Cost: most AI features are metered by credits on top of the builder’s licence.

Verdict

SeedProd is the quickest way to go from a prompt to a working WordPress site or landing page. Beaver Builder AI is our pick for agencies, because what it generates is an ordinary, stable Beaver Builder layout. Developers who work with AI agents should look at Bricks and Elementor, which both let MCP clients build inside the editor. Kadence and Spectra suit block editor sites, SoftWP is the one you may already have through your host, and WPBakery AI makes sense for sites already on WPBakery. 10Web is the choice when you want AI generation with hosting included.

Whichever you choose, WP Services can build the site and keep it maintained after launch.
