Enterprise WordPress
What is WordPress VIP?
WordPress VIP is the enterprise content platform that allows organizations to maintain control of their brands in the age of AI. We’re a business unit inside Automattic, built on WordPress, the original open-source CMS. Where WordPress.com hosts sites of any size, we build in what large, complex organizations need: content structured for AI answers, dedicated infrastructure, security, and governance.
Because it’s open source, your content and code stay yours, and you can plug in the tools and LLMs you need as technology changes. Your editorial team works the way it already does, and we run the platform. It’s what global brands, media companies, and government agencies choose when the site can’t go down.
The same WordPress, with the enterprise parts already handled
- Publish a page in minutes and launch campaigns without a developer
- Keep the plugins and extensions you already use
- Stay up through traffic spikes with auto-scaling infrastructure
- See which AI answers send you traffic, with content analytics and agentic workflows built in
- Inherit FedRAMP Certified and SOC 2 Type 2 compliance
Pricing
Plans built around your business. No hidden costs or upcharges.
What you pay depends on four things:
- Traffic you expect each month
- Number of sites and applications
- Your level of customer support
- Your service level agreement

Questions people ask before their first call
Is WordPress VIP just for media companies?
No. WordPress VIP is for any team that publishes at scale and operates under business or regulatory risk. That includes media companies, but also global brands, nonprofits, higher education institutions, financial services firms, and enterprise B2B organizations. The common thread isn’t industry. It’s complexity, visibility, and the need for governance, performance, and reliability.
How is this different from WordPress.com and WordPress.org?
Same Open-Source WordPress underneath, so your content stays yours on all three. The difference is who runs it and what’s included. With WordPress.org, you run the servers, security, and updates yourself. WordPress.com runs them for you, with plans for sites of any size. WordPress VIP is built for large, complex organizations. You get dedicated infrastructure, compliance certifications, governance across sites and teams, and engineers on support.
Is WordPress secure enough for us?
WordPress VIP is FedRAMP Certified and holds SOC 2 Type 2 compliance. Security patches ship before the public WordPress release. Automattic partners with Fortreum to run red team exercises against the platform.
Can we keep our plugins and custom code?
Yes. It’s the same WordPress your developers already know, with over 60,000 plugins available and a million developers who’ve worked in it. Code review runs against a security and performance standard before anything goes live.
What does it cost?
There’s no list price. A team running a few marketing sites and a newsroom publishing dozens of titles aren’t buying the same thing, so pricing is built per organization. No overage charges when a page takes off.
How long does a migration take?
It depends on how many sites and how much custom code. VIP service engineers scope it before you commit, and migration support is part of the engagement.
Who do we call when something breaks?
When you open a ticket, an engineer reads it. Support comes from the people who run the platform, not a tier-one queue.
