Running a WordPress.com site means checking a lot of screens: drafts, stats, plugins, domain renewals. Connecting WordPress.com to AI puts them behind one question.

This guide shows how to connect WordPress.com to Viro AI, the free AI assistant with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Viro’s own model in one app, and what you can do once it’s connected.

What you can do when WordPress.com is connected to AI

  • List the sites you can reach on WordPress.com
  • Find your posts and pages, including drafts and private ones, and read one
  • Look through your media library, categories and tags
  • Show your site’s visitors and views
  • Show your site’s settings and installed plugins
  • List your domains and when each one renews

What it won’t do: write, edit, publish or delete posts or pages, upload media, install or update plugins, change settings, themes or domains, read comments or billing, or read the content of a site on the free plan.

How to connect WordPress.com to AI, step by step

  1. Open Viro AI at ai.viro.app, or in the iPhone, Android or Mac app, and sign in. It’s free.
  2. Go to Customize → Connectors, open WordPress.com and select Connect to Viro.
  3. Log in to WordPress.com. When it asks how much access to give, choose Read only, then approve.
  4. Check that it’s connected. Back in Viro, WordPress.com is listed under Yours.

What to ask WordPress.com once it’s connected

Once it’s connected, just ask in any chat. Use your own names and dates.

Content

  • “Which of my WordPress posts are still drafts?”
  • “Show my five most recent WordPress posts.”

Site health

  • “How many views did my WordPress site get this week?”
  • “Which plugins are installed on my WordPress site?”
  • “When do my WordPress domains renew?”

Read-only by design

Read only is all Viro needs, so choose it when you connect. If you choose full access, Viro still only looks things up and refuses anything that would change your site.

Good to know

  • WordPress.com only lets connected apps read sites on a paid plan. On a free site, Viro can still list your sites and domains.
  • If nothing works, check that access for AI apps is switched on at wordpress.com/me/mcp, then reconnect.
  • With more than one site, name the one you mean.

Is it private?

Viro reads your WordPress.com data only to answer what you ask. It is never used to train AI models and Viro never sells your data. Free-plan ads are matched to words in the current conversation, never to your identity or your connected apps, and no human reads your chats.

To disconnect, open WordPress.com in Customize → Connectors and select Disconnect. This deletes the connection Viro stored.

Why use Viro for WordPress.com?

  • More than one model. Ask with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Viro’s own model, and switch mid-conversation.
  • Free. Connectors are included on every plan, including Free, on web, iPhone, Android and Mac.
  • All your apps in one place. More than 40 connectors, so one question can cover your email, calendar, files and work apps together.
  • Clean energy. Viro’s own model runs in data centers powered by hydro, geothermal and wind, and Viro funds new clean energy to match its partner models. See the data centers.

Connect WordPress.com to Viro AI free. Full details are on the WordPress.com help page, and every other app is listed in how to connect your apps to AI.
