Managed WordPress tooling for hosting providers
Offer your customers a self-service WordPress management layer without building it from scratch. Open-source, AGPL-licensed, and designed to run on the infrastructure you already operate.
A managed-WordPress layer without the engineering cost
Hosting providers that want to offer value-added WordPress management typically face a choice: build a proprietary tooling layer from scratch, or bundle a third-party SaaS product whose pricing and roadmap you do not control. WPMgr is a third option: a fully open-source, self-hostable control plane you can fork, embed, and brand. The agent is MIT-licensed and Ed25519-signed so your customers can audit every message it sends. Security hardening, uptime monitoring, and team access control are ready to ship on day one. You bring the infrastructure; WPMgr brings the tooling.

Common questions
Specific questions about this use case.
Can I white-label the dashboard for my customers?
WPMgr is fully open-source under the AGPL, so you can fork and rebrand the control plane. White-label maintenance reports with your logo are available in the current release for agency and client-facing deployments.
How does the agent communicate with the control plane?
The MIT-licensed WordPress agent communicates over HTTPS using Ed25519-signed messages. Every command the control plane sends is signed with a key the site owner can verify, so your customers can confirm that nothing happens to their site you cannot account for.
What does the security suite cover?
The security suite includes hardening rule application, file integrity monitoring with baseline comparison, IP ban lists fed from the Wordfence Intelligence feed, and ongoing vulnerability scanning for installed plugins and themes. All of this runs via the agent on the customer's own server.
Is there an API for provisioning sites programmatically?
Yes. The WPMgr control plane exposes a full REST API documented at manage.wpmgr.app/docs. You can add sites, trigger backups, run update jobs, and retrieve health data programmatically from your own automation layer.
