Meet the Speaker:
Aashish has been diving deep into the WordPress ecosystem for over a decade. He started out simply loving and using WordPress, but soon he was creating content, designing with it, monetising, and now, he’s blending AI and WordPress to build multiple SAAS.
Aashish’s passion also gave birth to Feedough – a WordPress based website recognized globally for its startup insights (ranked amongst top 20 startup websites in 2019). Besides Feedough, Aashish owns over 10 AI powered and AI developed WordPress oriented digital assets and have successfully exited from several too. Beyond the screen, he’s actively involved as an organiser of WordPress Delhi Community, bringing fellow WordPress lovers together.
Session Insights:
The session will target new business models in the WordPress and AI space. First, it will look at micro-SaaS solutions designed for niche needs—tools like dating advice generators. Aashish will show how these can be created on WordPress, even by non-techies, using custom plugins, which are built with AI tools like Claude, Cursor, and Gemini 1.5 Pro 002.
It is essential for the audience to leave with the understanding that WordPress is not just a blogging platform. This perception needs to be changed. Aashish will share case studies of a few micro-SaaS projects built using WordPress (and even some that were successfully exited at a good selling price).
The session will also explore plugin development as a revenue stream and explain why it is now accessible to all skill levels, even non-techies. It will also cover how one can build plugins for their own use.
For WordPress agencies and freelancers (the next section of the presentation), the focus will shift to automation through AI. Tools like Make (when added to WordPress) and custom plugins can reduce manual tasks, helping teams scale more smoothly, acquire more clients, and automate almost all WordPress-related work.
The audience can expect practical strategies to help WordPress businesses use AI to become more efficient, flexible, and scalable.
