The curriculum

1. What WPMaven is

In one sentence: describe any business, and a team of AI operators builds it, launches it and runs it every week, while the owner approves what goes out.

The thing it builds is the business, not only a website: products that can be sold, a working store or booking flow, the pages and the words, and the marketing that keeps going out week after week. The website is one part of that work.

Who it is for. People creating their own business, often from nothing more than an idea, who have the idea but not the time for the products, the store, the posts and the numbers. Agencies and freelancers who run businesses for their clients. Hosting companies whose customers come to them to start a site.

What it runs on. Every business is standard WordPress, the open source software behind over 40% of the web, and the money it takes goes into the owner's own payment account.

Key points

• Any business: a shop, a practice, a coaching program, a community, an app-like service. If the owner can describe it, the team builds it.
• A team, not a tool: a Co-CEO plans each week toward a goal, and the operators do the work.
• The owner keeps the yes. Nothing is published without it.

Try it: open the examples, pick one, and read the sentence it was built from and every step of the build.

2. The free build and the first week

1. Describe the business in a sentence or two, the way you would tell a friend.
2. WPMaven reads it back as a plan: the business, the pages, the add-ons it needs and the first products or services. Anything can be changed before the build starts.
3. An estimate of the first year, clearly labeled as an estimate, built on assumptions the owner can change. It is a planning aid, not a promise.
4. Pick a style from four directions, each tried on the preview.
5. The team builds it while the owner watches, in about a minute: the homepage first, then every page.

Building and previewing are free, with no card. When the owner wants it live, the first week is $1, one time only, on Launch, Operator or Scale billed monthly: the business live and hosted, up to 5 finished things they approve, and 30 Quick chat replies with WhatsApp. We email before day 8; then the plan's monthly price starts, or they cancel in a couple of clicks. It is one per person and per business in any 12 months, and prepaid cards, or cards already used for a $1 week, start the plan at full price that day.

Try it: build a business from one sentence at dashboard.wpmaven.ai/create. Use a real idea of a client or customer of yours: it is the best demo you will ever give.

3. The weekly work

Every week, the Co-CEO plans the work toward a goal and the operators draft it: posts for every network the owner connects, pages and articles, products and offers, and videos. Every piece waits under Waiting for you, and the owner approves it, asks for changes in their own words, or rejects it, from the dashboard or from WhatsApp on paid plans.

Actions

• One finished thing is one action: a post, a page, a blog article, a product, an offer, a form, a translation or an email campaign.
• A post counts once, however many networks it goes to.
• Monday replans, weekly reports, fixes and chatting with the team never count, and a failed task never uses an action.
• Each plan includes a number of actions a month, and a cap on how many of them are pages or articles. Action packs top up the month.

Videos

Each plan includes videos every month, of any kind. Some kinds cost a little extra, and the owner sees it before anything is made. Every AI video carries a visible AI label.

The Monday report

Every Monday, each business gets a report in plain language: what sold, what got traffic, and what to do next. Launch gets a snapshot; Operator, Scale and White label get the full written report.

Talking to the team

The owner can ask for anything in chat, in their own words. Plans include deep chat replies each week and Quick replies each month.

Try it: in your test business, ask the team for a post about something real this week, then approve it, ask for a change, and approve again.

4. Plans and prices

• Yearly billing is two months free on every plan.
• More businesses: Operator and Scale take up to 5 on one account, each extra one at the plan's price with its own allowance. On White label, each client site after the eighth is $25 a month, or $250 a year, and draws on the same pool.
• Action packs: $10 for 4 actions on Launch, 5 on Operator, and 6 on Scale and White label, up to 3 a month for each business.
• Your own domain: on yearly Operator and Scale, the first year of a domain is included, one per business, up to $12.
• Large portfolios: custom terms, worked against the partner's numbers. Talk to us.
• Cancel anytime from the dashboard. Money refunds are always confirmed by our team, never automatic.

Which plan to recommend: Operator for most owners who want the business to grow; Launch to start small, accepting the badge; Scale when they want more every week. Prices change rarely, and the pricing page is always the reference.

5. White label

White label runs up to eight client businesses under the agency's brand, from one dashboard, on one invoice. Each one has its own team, its own approvals and its own weekly report. Setup is four steps in Settings, White label:

1. Your brand. Your agency name, a logo (PNG or JPEG, up to 256 KB), your two colors, the support email client replies go to, and your website.
2. Your sending domain. Add the domain your client emails go from, like youragency.com, then add the DNS records shown, exactly as shown, and press Check now. Your clients' reports only ever go from your own domain, so they start once it is verified.
3. Your clients' weekly reports. Enter each client's email next to their business. Every Monday the report goes to them from your domain, under your brand, and their replies come to you.
4. Your dashboard address. A subdomain of yours, like clients.youragency.com, with the two DNS records shown. Once they check out, the secure certificate is switched on for you, and the address shows Live.

What your client sees: a dashboard on your address with your name and colors, reports and emails from your domain, and sites with no badge and no footer credit. Our name shows nowhere your client looks: the dashboard, the reports, the emails and the sites. One thing is outside anyone's control: when a client connects Instagram, YouTube or another network, that network's own consent screen names the app that posts, WPMaven.

Your team and your clients. On Team members, invite people with a role (Admin, Editor, Approver, Viewer or Billing) and the businesses they may see. "Hand a client their approvals" gives a client the yes for their own business, and nothing else. They sign in with a code we email, with no password, and every decision lands in your audit log.

Before you hand a site over, give it its own domain and add your domain for email: until then the site runs on a free wpmaven.site address and its emails go out from our address.

Try it: walk through the four steps with your own domain before your first client, and send yourself the test email from step 2.

6. The partner program

Hosting companies and agencies that bring customers to WPMaven earn from them. Your page in the dashboard, Partner program, has everything: your links, your customers, every payment and your statements.

• Your code looks like WPM-P-ABC234. Your share link opens our home page with your code on its sign-up buttons; your build link opens the free build directly, and is the one for a button in your panel. Add &pref= and your own customer number to it, and that number is what you see next to the customer.
• From your panel: Installs with WordPress from cPanel and Plesk (WP Toolkit), Softaculous and Installatron, with your partner code built in. See How to install WPMaven from your hosting panel; your named contact sends you your plugin package.
• Who is yours: anyone who opens your link and signs up within 90 days. The first partner link a person opens is the one that counts, and it never changes.
• Revenue share: 20% of what we collect from your customers, net of tax and card fees, every month for as long as they stay, starting with their $1 week. A refund or a chargeback takes back the same part of the share, from the month it happens.
• Statements: each month closes on the 1st. Our team sends the payout by bank transfer and marks it paid on your page, with the reference. Each statement downloads as a spreadsheet. A refund after a payout is taken from your next payout: you are never invoiced for it.
• Wholesale: for customers we set up at wholesale for you, your statement charges the wholesale rate while they are on a plan, and you bill them yourself at your own price, above our own retail price.

Try it: copy your share link, open it in a private window, and check that the sign-up buttons carry your code.

7. Selling it honestly

Everything here protects you, your customers and us. Say this:

• The team builds the business and works on it every week, and nothing is published without the owner's yes.
• Building and previewing are free; the first week is $1, one time only; the plans are $39, $69 and $129 a month.
• Every site is standard WordPress, and while the plan runs the owner can export it from its WordPress admin.
• Every AI video carries a visible AI label, and some images on a site may be generated with AI.

Never say this:

• What anyone will earn. No income promises, no "you could make", no figures from other businesses. The estimates in the product are labeled estimates for planning, and the $13.34 on the hosting page is one calculation of the share, not an expected income.
• A place in an AI assistant's answers. The sites are made to be read by assistants, and the report shows how often they read them. Nobody controls what an assistant answers, so we do not promise a ranking or a recommendation.
• That a site stays online after the plan ends. A site we host comes down when its plan ends.
• A refund on the spot. Money refunds are always confirmed by our team.
• Reviews, quotes or customer counts we do not have. Use the example walkthroughs, which say plainly that they are examples.

For buyers who ask about security and data: the security page, the written security questionnaire answers, the data processing agreement we sign on request, and the subprocessor list.

8. Support and escalation

• On revenue share, we carry the customer: sign-up, payment, questions and cancellations. Send them to the chat in their dashboard or to support@wpmaven.ai.
• On White label and wholesale, the customer is yours and writes to you. Our support chat does not show on your address; your support email does.
• You reach us through your named contact, your shared Slack channel, or partners@wpmaven.ai. Say which business, what happened and when, and add a screenshot. Never send a password.
• Is something down? The status page says so first.
