WordPress.com Gets an AI Assistant for Site-Wide Redesigns
Automattic bakes an AI assistant directly into WordPress.com that lets users reshape their entire site with plain English.
Automattic just dropped an AI assistant right into WordPress.com. The tool lets users overhaul their site's layout and styling using natural language commands — no digging through menus or writing CSS required.
The company announced the feature on Tuesday. It's built directly into the WordPress.com hosting platform, meaning users can tell the AI what they want their site to look like and watch it execute changes across the entire site. Think font swaps, color schemes, layout restructuring — all driven by conversational prompts.
This is Automattic pushing WordPress squarely into the AI-assisted design lane. For the millions of sites running on WordPress.com, the barrier to making sweeping visual changes just got dramatically lower.
No word yet on whether the feature will extend to self-hosted WordPress installations or remain exclusive to the .com platform.
