For digital agencies and web developers, managing many websites is a constant battle. The real problem isn’t the work itself, but the endless, repetitive tasks you do over and over again on dozens or hundreds of sites. This is the challenge of WordPress multi-site management, each site can be tailored to that business, SEO plugins differ, ACF fields on some, WooCommerce on others.
Tools exist for simple updates, but what about the strategic work like content, SEO, and e-commerce? This is where things are changing. The future of WordPress management isn’t just about a slightly better dashboard. It’s about a complete shift in how you work, moving from endless clicking to simple conversations.
Our goal was to create a system you can use where you, the agency or business owner managing a single or multiple sites, with no limit, can speak and talk to the AI as you would a team member to do tasks for you, posting a blog article, updating text, changing images, adding new products, invoicing and making new orders for clients and a lot more, it is just the beginning.
The Problem with Traditional Multi-Site Management
If you’re like most professionals, your day is filled with tasks that don’t scale. You’re logging in over and over, jumping between client dashboards, manually copying and pasting content, and clicking through countless forms in plugins like Yoast SEO, endless levels of Advanced Custom Fields or WooCommerce Orders & Subscriptions.
This process is a major bottleneck. It costs your team a lot of time and money, making it hard to take on new clients and grow. For us existing multi site capabilities allow us to do basic functions, update plugins, adjust simple settings but things which benefit the website are often left, traditionally because of complexity.
How AI-Powered Automation Solves WordPress Management
Our Solution: The Forerunner® WordPress AI Assistant & Multi-Site Manager is the first tool built for Individuals and professionals who handle large-scale operations, multiple or individual websites with no limit on their size or scope. It completely changes WordPress management by letting you use natural language to interact with your entire network. A key feature is its ability to understand what’s already on a website. For example, if it detects Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) on a site, the AI will know to ask you for the content needed to fill those fields.
Here are a few examples of the kind of prompts you can use:
Content: “Write a blog post about ’email marketing tips’ for all my digital marketing clients. Make sure the Yoast SEO fields are optimised, and add a featured image. Publish them as drafts.” “Generate 10 articles from this sample text, optimise for SEO, include featured images, some are on our drive and others are on the media library already, let us know if you need confirmation” “Update my article and add this image before the last paragraph”
E-commerce: “Set up a new £65 annual subscription for this customer across all my business sites.” “Email that invoice to the customer” “Setup a new customer and new order with a product and email it over to them”
Maintenance: “Update the contact forms on all law firm sites with the new phone number and apply the latest security patches.”
What used to take hours of manual work on 20 sites is now done in minutes, all from one simple request. These prompts can be layered and the CLI can action multiple at once, for multiple sites.
Forerunner® vs. Existing WordPress Tools
It’s important to understand what makes a solution truly unique. While other tools claim to simplify management, they are still limited by how they’re built.
Feature | Forerunner® WordPress AI Assistant & Multi-Site Manager | MainWP / ManageWP | AI Engine (Typical AI Plugin) |
---|---|---|---|
Main Job | Manages a network of sites with AI | Manages a network of sites manually | Adds AI features to a single site |
How it works | Parallel processing (Unlimited sites at once) | Sequential processing (one by one) | Single-site only |
Workflow | AI-native, command-line interface | GUI-based, dashboards | GUI-based, dashboards |
Core Value | Business growth & time savings | Updates & basic maintenance | Content & chatbot features |
The key takeaway is that the Forerunner® WordPress AI Assistant & Multi-Site Manager is in a different league. While other tools are useful for basic maintenance, they don’t give you the automation you need for a modern, growing agency.
Why Technical Architecture is Crucial for Agencies
The power of the Forerunner® WordPress AI Assistant & Multi-Site Manager comes from a special design that professionals will appreciate:
External CLI Architecture: The tool works outside of WordPress. This means zero slowdown for your client sites, which is vital for SEO and speed.
Parallel Processing: Instead of working on one site at a time, it executes requests across hundreds of sites simultaneously.
Universal AI Compatibility: It works with any AI assistant that can use tools, like ChatGPT, Claude, and others. You aren’t tied to a single AI provider, which keeps your workflow flexible.
Works with existing applications: Separated by a small wordpress plugin running on each site, linked to the master site, the CLI Tool then runs on your local machine, using apps such as Cursor, VS Code, Claude Desktop and more, you can interface with the CLI Tool directly, over time the CLI Tool can be expanded by your own AI Code as well as receive our own updates for future versions as we ensure the solution continues to scale.
This design is the key to true scalability.
Real-World Examples for SEO and E-commerce Agencies
The benefits of this new approach directly help agencies and e-commerce companies:
SEO Content at Scale: Quickly post high-quality, AI-generated content to all client blogs. The tool can also automatically handle Yoast SEO fields, categories, and images. You can use existing content drafted, images that exist or generate images, with the tool uploading these to the site for you.
E-commerce Automation: If you manage WooCommerce stores, it simplifies complex tasks like creating customer accounts, setting up subscriptions, and syncing products across all your sites, all from one request. Invoicing and product orders are now just like messaging your colleague on whatsapp to do something that day!
Streamlined Client Management: Automate the repetitive tasks, so your team can focus on higher-value work like client strategy and business growth.
Simply put, the Forerunner® WordPress AI Assistant & Multi-Site Manager isn’t just a plugin, it’s a way to save time and scale your business without the usual hassles. It pairs perfectly with our Automations and as we continue to develop the system and use it for our own large scale website management services, we adapt it based on real world scenarios.
