- GoDaddy has brought its AI tool for small businesses (Airo) to WordPress
- The new tool aims to solve complexity problems
- Unlike some AI website builders, in addition to website creation, Airo supports website management and growth
GoDaddy, one of the best-known domain registrars, has brought its already popular AI tool for small businesses (Airo) to WordPress with the goal of simplifying website building, management and growth.
In a press release shared with TechRadar Pro earlier this week, GoDaddy shared details about the new tool and highlighted its ability to help customers create and launch a fully functional WordPress site in minutes.
What is Airo?
GoDaddy Airo is an AI-powered platform aimed at helping small businesses and entrepreneurs create everything they need to start a business, from logos and marketing materials to complete websites.
Airo was originally launched in 2024, but tied users to GoDaddy’s hosting and CMS. This latest update brings Airo to the world’s largest website platform, WordPress, unlocking its flexibility and wide variety of plug-ins.
Airo for WordPress
“Small businesses and agencies have long faced a trade-off where website builders are easy but limiting, while WordPress is powerful but complex,” said Bhala Dalvi, Vice President of Engineering at GoDaddy. “Airo for WordPress eliminates that by bringing the speed and simplicity of AI together with the flexibility and ownership of WordPress.”
According to the press release, Airo will offer key features including:
- AI powered website creation in minutes
- No platform locking
- Super fast page load times
- A single-prompt AI companion for creating blogs, updating products and updating web pages
- Hassle-free editing in the WordPress dashboard
- Automatic plugin installation and configuration
- Continuous AI-driven improvements
- Dual editing paths that allow users to switch between Airo and the native WordPress editor.
