I find their marketing to be rather disagreeable: "No more expensive developers, or tedious StackOverflow searches." At best, this just changes the expertise that is useful to have (as well as the content of the StackOverflow searches that will still be made).

Still an interesting piece of software.

Is't it quite ironic, that somehow this product statement is sneering on the exact kind of people ("expensive developers") that are required to build the product itself?

I think it's cool, but $8/mo is outrageous. I also hate the demo model, why not just limit my account to 5 queries or something so I can see how it works? Most WP code people deal with are simple loops that people just have saved elsewhere. Rarely do you need something crazily complex. Honestly a CSS/HTML ai generator would be incredible.

I wonder if that's how this product got started - "most Wordpress plugin code are simple loops that get and do something on data" - and the only missing piece was to build a English language parser that takes that instruction and converts it into Wordpress PHP code that implements that request.
