The WordPress management platform
Manage every WordPress site you run, from one dashboard.
Updates, backups, security, hosting and new-site builds for all your WordPress sites — in one place, on one login, priced per account and not per site. Yours or your clients’.
One account · unlimited sites · you always own your site

Stop juggling a dozen plugins, logins and per-site invoices. Groundcraft brings hosting, maintenance, security and growth for every site you run under one roof — with AI doing the repetitive work and you approving what ships.
One place to run all of it.
Every WordPress site you own or manage, and everything around it — not just the part a plugin can see.
Every site, up to date and backed up
See each site’s WordPress, plugin and theme versions at a glance. Run updates across all of them at once — each with a backup taken first, so nothing breaks quietly.
Runs on servers you own
Any provider, one dashboard. The hosting stays yours — we manage the sites on it, not lock you into ours.
The whole site, not just the pages
Domains, email, databases and certificates for every site — managed in the same place, without opening a separate panel per site.
Build a new site with AI
Bring a brand or a design and compose a custom WordPress site in the hub — against your own colors, type and screens, not a generic theme.
Your AI, or ours
Connect the AI key you already pay for, or leave it to us. Either way every AI action runs on the cheapest capable model and a second one checks its work.
Graded for AI search, not just Google
Every site scored A to F for how well search engines and AI assistants can read and recommend it — so you know which one slipped, and what to fix first.

Safe by default
Nothing changes until you say so.
Every update, every fix, every AI action waits for your approval. A backup is taken before anything runs — and a failed backup stops its own update, never your other sites. You review a plain-language summary and approve; the work then happens on its own.
What the tools miss
Most tools manage the website. We manage everything around it too.
The moment a job touches a domain, a mailbox, a database or an expiring certificate, most WordPress dashboards stop and hand you a separate panel. Groundcraft keeps all of it in one place — so the part that used to live in your head lives on the screen instead.
Getting started
Connect what you have — we take it from there.
01
Add your sites
Point us at the WordPress sites you already run, on whatever hosting they live on. We connect and take a first backup of each.
02
Pick what we handle
Updates, backups, security, hosting, AI visibility — choose per site. Build a brand-new site with AI in the same hub if you need one.
03
Approve and go
Everything waits for your yes. You review a plain summary, approve, and the work runs — backup-gated, audited, reversible.
One license. The whole platform.
Priced per account, not per site — and you always own your domain, content and site.

Questions
Is Groundcraft a WPMU DEV or ManageWP alternative?
For managing WordPress sites, yes — with the difference that the hosting stays yours. Groundcraft manages sites on servers you own, on any provider, and adds domain, email and database management, AI site-building and AI-visibility grading that a plugin membership does not cover.
Do I have to move my hosting to you?
No. The platform manages your WordPress sites wherever they already live. If you would rather we host them too, managed hosting starts at $19/mo and includes the management work.
Can I really build a whole WordPress site with AI?
You compose it: bring your brand or a design, pick a starter, choose what the site needs, and approve the plan. AI drafts the content and structure against your own colors, type and screens — it does not invent a brand you never gave it.
Which AI does it use?
Yours, if you connect a key — then every AI action runs on your account. Otherwise ours picks the cheapest capable model for each task and has a second model from a different family check the result.
How is it priced?
Per account, not per site. One login covers every site you manage. Done-for-you services are priced separately and shown upfront — hosting from $19/mo, a built site from $399, agency packs from $70/mo for 10 sites.
What does it need to manage my sites?
Admin access to your WordPress sites. We connect, take a backup, and manage from there — you never hand over anything more than that, and you can revoke it any time.
Can I manage my clients’ sites under my own brand?
Yes. Agencies get a white-labeled panel and reports under their own brand and domain, with every client site in one dashboard, billed as a single line. See white-label management.
What is the AI-visibility grade?
A monthly score, A to F, for how well search engines and AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity can read and cite each site — with the specific fix that would raise it.
Do I stay in control of what changes?
Always. Nothing updates, deploys or publishes until you approve it, every change is backed up first, and everything is reversible. You own your domain, content and site with no lock-in.
Can I migrate off my current setup?
Yes — migration onto us is free and done with no downtime. We rebuild and test in parallel, then switch over only when you approve.
Run every WordPress site from one place.
Hosting, updates, backups, security and growth for all your sites — yours or your clients’ — on one login.
