The short version

WPConvert uses an online service to convert an AI-built site into a WordPress theme.

WPPasteKit turns your original AI-generated HTML into a complete WordPress site with shared elements and content fields, from €49 once.

Choose WPConvert for a downloadable new theme; choose WPPasteKit to work in your existing site with any theme.

Two approaches

WPConvert

WPConvert is an online conversion service. You supply an AI-built site from tools such as Lovable, Cursor, Claude, v0, Replit or Google AI Studio, or provide static HTML. It produces an installable WordPress theme. You can use a dashboard or developer tools. The included WPConvert Editor handles content changes, and Add a Page is available on Pro, Agency and PAYG. Changing the design requires another conversion; routine content editing through the Editor is a separate task.

WPPasteKit

WPPasteKit works as a plugin with any theme, the standard package that determines your site’s design and layouts. There is no need to switch themes. “Make this my site” separates a complete design into a header, the shared top section, page content and a footer, the shared bottom section. Those shared elements also appear on the blog, archives and 404 page. A builder is a visual environment for assembling pages; WPPasteKit does not require an extra one.

Your navigation becomes a real WordPress menu, and your news cards can display real posts. Editors get a separate screen for content, images and repeatable rows, while raw HTML remains available only to administrators. You still write ordinary blog posts in Gutenberg, WordPress’s standard editor.

Renewal at a reduced rate is optional: your site continues working without it. You can use the WPPasteKit prompt in a free AI chat; any paid AI service you choose is a separate expense. Paid form or other plugins, if used, are outside the WPPasteKit licence.

Three practical situations

Redesigning an existing website

WPConvert supplies a new active theme. WPPasteKit lets you keep your current theme and adds the AI design through a WordPress plugin. That matters if a theme switch is not part of your plan.

Your branding changes three months later

A WPConvert design change goes through another conversion. With WPPasteKit, you paste revised code and can update shared site styling centrally. WPConvert does provide its own Editor for content changes.

Handing over several client sites

Compare the conversions and websites you need against your chosen WPConvert plan. WPPasteKit Agency costs €149 once for twenty live sites. It pays for a WordPress workflow rather than online conversion credits.

When should you choose WPConvert?

  • You want an AI project converted into an installable WordPress theme.
  • You want to convert through a dashboard, terminal, API or AI assistant. An API lets other software call the service.

When should you choose WPPasteKit?

  • You want to keep your current theme and work directly in WordPress.
  • You expect later design changes and want to paste revised code for them.
  • You want a fixed one-time licence cost instead of conversion credits.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need another conversion for every text edit?

No. WPConvert includes an Editor for content. Re-conversion applies to design changes, not automatically to every text or image edit.

Is WPPasteKit also a theme export service?

No. It is a plugin inside your WordPress site. You paste or import design code there and connect it to shared site elements without installing a newly converted active theme.

Can I move from WPConvert to WPPasteKit?

If you have the original HTML/CSS from your AI design, optionally with JavaScript and related assets, you can paste or import it into WPPasteKit and click “Make this my site”. WPPasteKit does not turn widgets or builder blocks back into HTML. This is not a promise of automatic migration of every existing page, setting or content item; check those separately.

Do I have to keep paying for WPPasteKit?

No. Individual costs €49 once for one live site; Agency costs €149 once for twenty live sites. Twelve months of updates and support are included. Without optional renewal, the site keeps working but further updates and support stop. Prices as of 30 September 2026; they may have changed.
