Building WPoptic, biggest WordPress database on earth.
Someone should build a BuiltWith for WordPress. Turns out nobody had.
BuiltWith is good at what it does. It can tell you if a site runs WordPress. But which plugins? It has no idea.
That gap bothered me for a long time.
I work with WordPress every day. Plugin choices matter a lot in my world. And I couldn't find a tool that showed me what was actually installed on a site.
So I built one.
WPoptic is a browser extension and a platform that detects WordPress plugins on any site you visit. Not just "this site runs WordPress." Exactly which plugins are active, which versions, which tools.
We now have 15.5 million websites in our database. With over 7500 plugins detected and verified. (If you need a list of WordPress websites, please check it out.)
BuiltWith can show you maybe 500 of them.
The difference is focus. WPoptic was built for WordPress specifically. Nothing else.
We just launched, and I'm having good results with my data.
If you work with WordPress, what data could be usefull for you?
