Launched February 2026 at no extra cost for qualifying plan users.
Pricing: Included with WordPress.com Business and Commerce plans (no extra cost)

Q'dUp Pro Tip: If you're already on WordPress.com Business or Commerce, turn this on immediately — it's included at no extra cost. Use it for quick landing page edits, image generation for blog posts, and layout adjustments. For self-hosted WordPress.org users, this isn't available — look at Elementor AI or similar plugin-based alternatives instead.
