About the product
What is Tuli Builder?
Tuli Builder is an AI-powered WordPress theme and page builder. You describe the site you want in any language, or paste in any HTML and CSS, and Tuli Builder turns it into a real WordPress site where every element can be edited visually and any section can be made dynamic with query loops, custom fields and live WordPress data. Pages are saved as clean HTML and CSS, so you are never locked in. It also has a built-in MCP server, so AI agents such as Claude Code can build and manage the whole site.
Who makes Tuli Builder?
Tuli Builder is made by Shusanto Kumar Modak, its founder and developer. It launched in June 2026. Read more on the About page.
Is Tuli Builder a theme or a plugin?
Both in one. Tuli is a WordPress theme with the visual page builder built in, so you don't need a separate builder plugin.
How is Tuli Builder different from Elementor or Divi?
Elementor and Divi store pages in their own formats and output extra wrapper markup. Tuli stores plain HTML and CSS, lets you paste any HTML and edit it straight away, includes an AI assistant and an MCP server for AI agents, and is sold as a one-time lifetime licence. See Tuli vs Elementor and Tuli vs Divi.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You can build everything visually or by asking the AI assistant. If you do code, you can paste raw HTML and CSS, write CSS directly, and read clean output at any time.

Can Tuli Builder create a WordPress website using AI?
Yes. Open a page with Edit with Tuli and describe what you want, for example "build a portfolio site for a photographer". The built-in AI assistant writes the HTML, CSS and JavaScript live on the canvas and can make sections dynamic with query loops and live WordPress data. You review everything before saving. Guide: How to create a WordPress website using AI.
Which AI models does the assistant use?
The assistant connects through OpenRouter, so one API key gives you access to Claude (Anthropic), GPT (OpenAI), Gemini (Google), xAI, DeepSeek, Qwen and other models. You add your own OpenRouter key under Tuli → Settings → OpenRouter and choose a default model.
What is the Tuli MCP server?
It is a built-in Model Context Protocol server. Connect an AI agent to it and the agent can manage your WordPress site: pages, posts, Tuli layouts, templates, query loops, custom post types, taxonomies, media and plugins. Setup steps are in the documentation.
Which AI agents work with Tuli Builder?
Any MCP-compatible client. The settings screen has ready-made setup for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, OpenAI Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Google Antigravity, Cursor, Cline, OpenCode, Windsurf and VS Code (GitHub Copilot).
Is it safe to let an AI agent manage my site?
Access is controlled through application passwords you create. Each one acts as a user you choose, can only perform the actions you tick, and can be revoked at any time. Agents can never change or switch your theme, and everything they build is readable HTML and CSS.
Can I turn a vibe-coded or ChatGPT-generated site into WordPress?
Yes. Paste the HTML, CSS and JavaScript into Tuli and every tag becomes an editable WordPress element. Selectors, media queries and comments are kept as they are. Guide: From ChatGPT to WordPress.
Pricing
Pricing and licences
How much does Tuli Builder cost?
Tuli Builder is a one-time payment, not a subscription: $25 for 1 site, $50 for 5 sites, $125 for 25 sites and $500 for unlimited sites. Every plan includes all features and lifetime updates. Taxes are added at checkout. See pricing.
Is there a free trial or refund?
Every plan has a 14-day money-back guarantee. If Tuli isn't right for you, ask for a full refund within 14 days. See the refund policy.
What counts as a site?
One production WordPress installation. Local and staging copies of the same project don't count against your limit.
Do I need an AI subscription to use Tuli?
No. The visual builder works without any AI. The AI assistant uses your own OpenRouter key, which is billed per use by OpenRouter. The MCP server works with whatever AI agent you already use.
What happens to my site if I stop using Tuli?
Your pages are standard HTML and CSS, so the content and markup stay readable and portable. You don't have to rebuild them from proprietary widgets or shortcodes.
Compatibility
Compatibility
Does Tuli Builder work with WooCommerce?
Yes. It includes 30+ native WooCommerce elements, including product title, price, add to cart, gallery, cart, checkout and my account, so you can design custom shop, product and checkout pages.
Does it support ACF and custom post types?
Yes. ACF fields appear in the dynamic data picker, ACF repeaters can power query loops, and query loops work with any post type, including your own.
What are the requirements?
WordPress 6.0 or newer and PHP 7.4 or newer. Tuli also works with Gutenberg blocks, any shortcode, WP Grid Builder and Google Fonts.
Is Tuli Builder fast and SEO-friendly?
Yes. It outputs clean, semantic markup and loads scripts only for the elements a page actually uses, which helps Core Web Vitals. It works with SEO plugins such as Yoast SEO. Read why a lightweight page builder matters.
