SSH-native. Plugin-free. Always on.

Everything you need.
Nothing you don’t.

WPGrip connects directly to your servers via SSH and WP-CLI — giving you complete control over every WordPress site in your portfolio, without installing a single plugin.

Why WPGrip

Other tools install plugins on your sites. We don’t.

Every plugin you add to WordPress is another dependency to update, another attack surface to defend, another process loading on every page request. WPGrip uses a single SSH key in your server’s authorized_keys file. That’s it. Your WordPress stays lean. Your visitors stay fast.

Performance

2× faster than plugin-based tools

WP-CLI executes over your direct SSH tunnel. No HTTP round-trips, no WordPress bootstrap, no shared-memory overhead. Commands that take seconds elsewhere happen instantly.

Security

Zero attack surface on your WordPress

No REST API endpoints exposed. No admin credentials stored. No third-party code executing on your server during page loads. An SSH key is cryptographically strong and trivially revokable.

Control

Real commands. Full access.

Inspect files, check logs, run arbitrary WP-CLI commands, query databases directly — from a single dashboard, across every site simultaneously. Nothing is hidden behind abstractions.

Monitoring

Know the moment something goes wrong

Uptime checks, SSL expiry alerts, domain warnings, and PageSpeed regression detection — all running 24/7 across your entire portfolio. When something breaks, you hear about it before your client does.

  • Uptime monitoring with instant alerts
  • SSL certificate expiry warnings (30, 14, 7 days)
  • Domain expiry tracking
  • Google PageSpeed for mobile & desktop

Why is my PageSpeed score dropping on mobile?
I can see the score dropped from 78 to 61 over 7 days. The Yoast SEO update (v21.9) added 48kB of undeferred JS. I recommend deferring seo-schema.js. Want me to check the file size via SSH?
U
Yes, check it.
$ wc -c seo-schema.js
49,152 bytes
Confirmed — 48kB unminified. Rolling back to v21.8 is safest. Want me to queue that update?
