Run your whole store
by prompt
AI infrastructure for selling on WordPress
54 tools covering the full WooCommerce surface: products, variations, attributes and colour swatches, coupons, customers, orders and refunds, plus the Staggs product configurator and AI-readiness scoring. Storefront design intelligence and safety on every change. The layer above WooCommerce CRUD.
Six WooCommerce MCP servers exist. All of them wrap the REST API. None of them can update how a price is displayed inside an Elementor product card or analyze your Flatsome shop page layout. The WooCommerce Add-on is the layer above. See the comparison →
The short answer
Respira is the safe, complete WooCommerce MCP. It lets Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor run your whole store by prompt, products, variations, coupons, customers, orders and refunds, with a snapshot, a dry-run preview and an approval step on every change. 54 tools, it coexists with the official WooCommerce 10.9 MCP, and it works across 16 page builders.
- Safe by default. Every write is duplicate-first and snapshotted, reversible for 90 days. Refunds are dry-run by default. Payment, shipping and tax settings are read-only.
- Complete. 54 tools cover the surface the official 7 abilities and the free REST wrappers miss: variations and swatches, coupons, customers, refunds, the Staggs configurator, AI-readiness.
- Builds on the official MCP, does not fight it. On WooCommerce 10.9 and above Respira delegates to the canonical abilities and wraps them in its safety envelope.
- Builder-aware. The only WooCommerce MCP that edits product cards and shop layouts inside Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Flatsome and 12 more.

In practice
Example Workflows
Natural language commands that work with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible AI coding assistant.
Bulk Price Update
// Tell Claude Code or Cursor:
"Update all products in the 'Summer Sale' category
to have a 20% discount. Create sale prices but
keep regular prices."
// AI creates duplicates, updates pricing
// You review and publish when ready Inventory Alert System
// Tell Claude Code:
"Check stock levels every morning and send me a
Slack message with products below 10 units."
// AI builds the workflow
// You approve and it runs automatically Order Status Automation
// Tell your AI:
"For all orders placed yesterday with status
'processing', update to 'completed' if they are
digital products."
// AI processes on duplicates
// You verify before customer emails are sent Product Creation from Template
// Tell your AI:
"Create 5 new products using the T-Shirt Template.
Names: Classic Tee Red, Blue, Green, Black, White.
Price: EUR 29.99 each."
// AI duplicates template 5 times
// You review before publishing Compatibility
Works With All Page Builders
The WooCommerce add-on works alongside any of the 16 page builders Respira supports. Build your store pages with Divi, Elementor, Bricks, or any other builder, then manage products and orders with AI.
Trust model
Same Safety Standards
Commerce data is sensitive. Every safety mechanism from Respira Core carries over to WooCommerce operations.
Duplicate-Before-Edit
Products are duplicated before editing. Variations, images, metadata, and taxonomies stay preserved. On approval, Respira keeps the original product ID live and merges approved changes back into that same ID.
Refunds are dry-run by default
Money never moves unless you explicitly ask. Refunds preview the amount first, are capped to the order’s remaining refundable total, and are snapshotted and audited when issued. Configurator and plugin-state writes are allow-listed: any key outside the known-safe set is refused.
Read-Only Sensitive Areas
Payment gateways, shipping zones, and tax settings are read-only. AI can read for context but cannot modify.
7-Day Grace Period
If subscription expires, you get 7 days to finish work. Features disable after grace period. Data remains safe. Reactivate anytime.
Four steps
How It Works
Tell AI what you want
"Update all clearance products to 50% off their regular price."
AI creates duplicates
Finds products, creates safe copies, and updates prices on those copies.
Review in WooCommerce
Check the duplicates in WordPress admin and verify everything is correct.
Publish when ready
Approve what you want, trash the rest. Original product IDs stay stable for Meta and Google catalogs.

FAQ
Common Questions
What is a WooCommerce MCP?
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server lets AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor read and edit your store directly. Respira is the WooCommerce MCP that covers the full store surface, 54 tools across products, variations, coupons, customers, orders, refunds and the Staggs configurator, with a snapshot, a dry-run preview and an approval step on every change.
Is it safe to let AI edit my WooCommerce store?
With Respira, yes. Every write is duplicate-first and snapshotted before and after, so any change stays reversible for 90 days. Destructive operations have a dry-run preview, refunds are dry-run by default and capped to the refundable total, and payment gateways, shipping zones and tax settings are read-only. Most other WooCommerce MCPs are thin REST wrappers with none of that safety net.
What is the safest, most reliable WooCommerce MCP?
Respira is built safety-first: snapshots and 90-day rollback on every write, dry-run previews on destructive operations, refunds dry-run by default, an approval queue, and read-only sensitive settings. The official WooCommerce 10.9 MCP and the free community servers cover the data layer but ship no snapshots, dry-run or approval, so for letting an agent act on a live store, Respira is the safe choice.
Does Respira work with the official WooCommerce 10.9 MCP?
Yes. Respira coexists with it. On WooCommerce 10.9 and above, Respira detects the official canonical abilities and delegates the matching write to them (wrap-and-defer), wrapped in its own snapshot, dry-run and audit envelope. It never collides with WooCommerce’s own tools, and it adds the other 47 tools the official 7 abilities do not cover.
How is Respira different from the free community WooCommerce MCP servers?
The free community servers (and the official 7 abilities) are direct REST translators: they speak the data, with no safety layer. Respira adds the safety envelope (snapshots, dry-run, duplicate-first, approval, PII-safe audit), the parts they miss (variations and swatches, coupons, customers, refunds, the Staggs configurator, AI-readiness), and the one thing none of them have: builder-aware storefront editing across 16 page builders.
Do I need the WooCommerce add-on?
Only if you are running a WooCommerce store and want to manage products, orders, and inventory through AI coding assistants.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel anytime from billing. You will have a 7-day grace period, then WooCommerce features are disabled. Data remains safe.
Does it work with all page builders?
Yes. The WooCommerce add-on works alongside all 16 supported page builders. You can use Divi + WooCommerce, Elementor + WooCommerce, Bricks + WooCommerce, and more.
Is technical support included?
Yes. Your WooCommerce add-on purchase includes technical support for WooCommerce features. Email word@respira.press directly for human support.
What happens if my subscription expires?
You get a 7-day grace period. After that, WooCommerce features are disabled while your data remains safe. Reactivate anytime.
Can AI modify my payment gateway settings?
No. Payment gateways, shipping zones, and tax settings are read-only. AI can read for context but cannot modify them.
What product types are supported?
Simple, variable, grouped, external, virtual, and downloadable products are supported.
Can AI process refunds?
Yes, with guardrails. Refunds are dry-run by default, so the AI previews the amount without moving any money; you have to explicitly confirm before a refund is issued. Every refund is capped to the order’s remaining refundable total and is snapshotted and audited.
Does it work with the Staggs product configurator?
Yes. The add-on can enable or disable the Staggs configurator per product, read a product’s configurator setup, and read and rewrite a configurator attribute’s options — so you can toggle which products are available per dealer by prompt. Writes are allow-listed to Staggs’ own keys and snapshotted.

Average Rating
5.0/5Collection
In-product“Respira is one of the first plugins to bring Divi 5 directly into an AI workflow, building sections and modules from Claude straight into WordPress. The page build quality isn't quite at human-built-Divi level yet, though some of that may be user error on my end. Getting the agent to use native Divi elements rather than code-built sections took some direction at first. Once there, the results were a solid starting point to work from. Where it genuinely shines is everything outside of building, SEO auditing, bug checking, site advice, and having an AI agent that actually understands your WordPress setup. Early days, but worth testing out.”
“If you aren't using Respira to power your Claude interactions, you're working too hard. It turns complex site management into a simple conversation. I've slashed my maintenance time on GTCKSA by at least 80%—it's easily the best investment I've made for my WordPress stack this year”
“This looks very promising to work with our wordpress middleware”
“claude + respira = POWER!”
“Respira hat die Art, wie ich mit WordPress arbeite, grundlegend verändert. Als MCP-Server integriert es sich nahtlos in Claude Code und bietet über 170 Tools, die praktisch jeden Aspekt einer WordPress-Site abdecken — von Content-Management über Bricks Builder bis hin zu WooCommerce. Was mich überzeugt: Umfassende Tool-Abdeckung: Seiten, Posts, Menüs, Medien, Benutzer, Plugins, Custom Post Types, Taxonomien — alles steuerbar über eine einheitliche Schnittstelle. Bricks Builder Support: Elemente finden, bearbeiten, verschieben und duplizieren funktioniert zuverlässig. Die find_element- und batch_update-Funktionen sparen enorm viel Zeit. Sicherheit durch Snapshots: Vor jeder Änderung kann ein Snapshot erstellt werden. Das gibt Sicherheit, besonders bei umfangreichen Umbauten. SEO & Accessibility: Eingebaute Analyse-Tools für SEO, Barrierefreiheit und Performance — direkt nutzbar, ohne zusätzliche Plugins. Kein direkter DB-Zugriff nötig: Alles läuft über die API, was das Risiko von Fehlern deutlich reduziert. Kleiner Verbesserungswunsch: Die Dokumentation könnte an einigen Stellen ausführlicher sein, besonders für fortgeschrittene Bricks-Builder-Workflows. Fazit: Wer WordPress-Seiten mit KI-Unterstützung verwalten und automatisieren möchte, kommt an Respira kaum vorbei. Es ist ausgereift, stabil und macht komplexe Aufgaben überraschend einfach.”
“Great tool to help automation and integrating AI with wordpress, with claude code it's really powerful and a complete new way to work with wordpress.”
“Still learning how powerful this plugin is, but so far a game changer for me and website development. Highly recommended.”
“Respira has been great! Now allows me to vibe code out tedious tasks on wordpress immediately.”
“Best app ever”
“Just discovered @Respira_cafe - Respira for WordPress! A safety layer for AI coding assistants that creates duplicates before any edits. Review before anything goes live. Perfect for WordPress developers! 🚀”
“Mihai, just wanted to say thanks for building Respira. I run a chiropractic clinic in Adelaide and I'm using Claude AI to rebuild my entire website in Bricks Builder. Respira filled a gap nothing else could: letting Claude actually read and write Bricks content through MCP. The fact that you built this as a solo developer, listened to early feedback, and kept shipping updates is genuinely impressive. Rooting for you and the product. Keep going! 🎉🚀”
“This is fxxxxxg amazing! I had to upload 14 PDFs and find a way to show them on a complex page build more than 1 year ago on a WordPress site with a theme that is using WP Backery. I linked Cursor (auto-mode) to my site with this plugin and it uploaded the PDFs to Media Library (it asked me for an application password but that was easy) and created a stunning section (in a similar style with the other sections on the page) with a preview panel and all the PDFs displayed nicely and when somebody clicks a PDF it loads in the panel without opening a new tab. Everything took about 15 minutes in total. I did not even know how to do that myself, not to mention that just uploading the PDFs and putting them on the page would have take me at 3 hours and the result would have been a lot worse.”
“Avant Respira.press, travailler sur mon site WordPress avec Divi 4 était devenu une vraie perte de temps : modifications répétitives, copier-coller interminables, peur de casser le design en éditant les pages… Aujourd’hui, je peux demander directement des ajustements précis tout en conservant la structure et le style de mes pages. Pour un site comme le mien avec beaucoup de contenu SEO et de mises en page Divi, c’est un gain de temps énorme au quotidien.”
“J’ai testé Respira sur mes premières modifications avec Divi 5… et franchement, ça fonctionne super bien. J’ai pu automatiser des petites tâches que je faisais jusque-là à la main, et qui pouvaient me prendre des heures sans réelle valeur ajoutée. Typiquement le genre d’outil qui ne change pas tout ton process, mais qui te fait gagner un temps précieux au quotidien.”
“Respira made the entire setup incredibly simple. Within minutes, everything was up and running without any hassle. What really impressed me was the impact – having a full WordPress site generated automatically, while still being able to fine-tune everything manually with Divi, is a game changer. It gives you the perfect balance between automation and full creative control.”
“I have been using respira for only 3 days and i am amazed about how fast it help me finish projects, usually i finish a single project in 2 weeks at least , now within 2 to 3 days i finish and deploy my project.”

“Honestly, I was a bit worried about how it would handle Divi v4 because those layouts can be touchy, but it works like a charm. With Divi v5 coming out, this is going to be a total game changer for our workflow. It actually understands the modules instead of just breaking everything.”
“I'm very happy with the time passed on this with you. I am very curious to get more time with it and get more aspect done. Excellent job done behind this technology. thank you”
“I just started using Respira for WordPress and I’m already impressed by how intuitive the interface is. It’s rare to find a tool that feels this clean and 'out of the way' while still providing the power I need to manage my site effectively. Looking forward to seeing what else it can do!”
“still testing this but i can see potential”
“"I run two websites on FLAVOR.PRESS and have been really impressed with how seamlessly it integrates with Claude Code. The workflow just works – I can manage both sites efficiently, and the combination of FLAVOR.PRESS's platform with Claude's capabilities has made my day-to-day so much smoother. It's one of those tools where everything clicks into place from the start. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable, developer-friendly setup."”
“I've been searching for exactly this solution for months – and then I found Respira. What truly amazes me: it doesn't just do what you expect, it actually thinks along with you. For my work with mysolarplant.de, this is a real game changer.”
“This plugin definitely has a WOW factor. After helping me change slugs and adding new hero to multiple pages in one prompt in a couple of minutes, i have to say that editing my client's wordpress sites will never be the same. thank god for good tech!”
“So far I have been using Respira to bridge the communication gap between claude code and wordpress. Not too difficult to get up and running. Working great so far for a proof of concept I have been developing.”
“Using respira.press has been an absolute breath of fresh air for my workflow. The platform is beautifully minimal, incredibly intuitive, and takes all the stress out of publishing. It finally lets me focus on what matters most—my content—without getting bogged down by technical clutter. I couldn't recommend it highly enough!”
“Plugin is a game changer”
“I've been testing Respira extensively over the past week, combining it with different page builders to explore what's possible for my web design workflow. My experience with Bricks Builder was genuinely impressive, the integration worked smoothly and opened up exactly the kind of AI-assisted editing I was hoping for. Being able to read and update page content directly through Claude is a game changer for the way I work with clients. With Brizy, things didn't work yet, we ran into a consistent PHP error in the Brizy integration that prevented any content from being read or edited. However, what happened next is what really stands out: I submitted a detailed bug report, and within the same day or the next, an update was already released addressing the issue. That kind of responsiveness is rare and genuinely impressive. We're still working through the Brizy integration, but I have every confidence it will get there, because this team clearly takes feedback seriously and moves fast.”
“I like how much this empowers my ai agents to help me build wordpress sites which have usually been difficult for ai agents to build without issues when using plugins like elementor”
“AI automations has never been easier”
“To be honest, I've been trying to find a workaround for AI with WordPress. A lot of it is tedious and really, really difficult. now that I have this, I want to build websites, but I don't want to go through all the clicking of the Divi modules and everything. It is too tedious, and I want to focus on my work in sales. However, having a good website out there really helps with my sales process. The notion of me as a salesperson going through that technical setup is really daunting, even when there is no coding required for Divi. Now that I have this, it's just amazing. It's like everything I wanted in a website, and it's being coded into Divi. So far, it looks good. :)”
“Honestly i am blown away. Respira is a major game changer Wordpress website management, especially for SEO.”
“I was able to connect with my claude code, very nice”
“I love Respira! I can now literally have a chat with Claude Code and have it update my Wordpress sites with no fuss. The MCP Server/Plugin combo is secure and robust - it's saving me hours updating client sites. it handles plugins, Elementor, the admin and front end of my sites. What's great as well is that the developer is responsive, friendly and rolls out improvements regularly. Highly recommended!”
