Artificial intelligence excels at automating repetitive tasks and streamlining tedious workflows — and web development has plenty of those.

That’s why using AI tools in your web projects can save you a ton of time and effort.

Still, with so many options out there, which ones are actually worth trying? That’s exactly what we’ll cover in this post.

Below, we’ll explore eight AI-powered web development tools that genuinely stand out.

For each, you’ll see what it does, why it’s useful, and how it can improve your workflow — plus a few quick-start resources to help you put them to work right away.

1. Studio Assistant​

The is our own AI chatbot integrated into WordPress.com’s free local development desktop app, .

It saves time by letting you do more from a single interface using natural language — no need to browse your site or file system, or learn shell commands.

You can find it under the Assistant tab.



To access the Assistant, you must be logged into your WordPress.com account.

Each user is allowed 200 prompts per month across all of their Studio sites.



You can talk to the Studio Assistant in any language, and it will perform various tasks to help you configure new sites and manage your existing local websites. For example:

• Answer questions about WordPress development
• Give plugin and theme recommendations
• Create ready-to-copy content
• Write PHP, JavaScript, and CSS
• Disable or update plugins
• Upgrade your local site’s WordPress version (even to beta or RC versions)
• Open site files directly from the chat interface
• Run

If you want to add custom code, the Studio Assistant writes it for you and links to the file where you can add it. The chatbot understands your site’s context (themes, plugins, etc.) and connects to the WordPress.com knowledge base and infrastructure to tailor responses to your setup.

In short, it helps you focus on your goals and ideas instead of clicking around your site.

Pricing​

The Studio Assistant is completely free to use within the tool. You’ll need to log into a WordPress.com account — free or paid — to access it.

2. Cursor​

is an AI code editor that speeds up your workflow by predicting what you’re going to write next, even across multiple lines and files.

You can simply accept its proposals by hitting the tab button.



In addition, Cursor has an autocorrect function, which means you don’t have to type every colon or apostrophe. The editor fills them in for you.

Another feature is agent mode, which can write and edit code from natural language prompts.

The tool automatically takes your existing codebase into account when creating markup, but you can also provide an instruction file and manually reference files, functions, images, documentation, or the web.



Cursor keeps you in the loop with what it’s working on. You can ask it questions about the code it creates, request revisions, and accept the tool’s output with one click.

Besides, it can run and detect and fix lint errors automatically to speed up debugging.

There’s an additional paid feature called Bugbot AI code review, which catches bugs, security issues, and beyond.

This AI web development tool is a real time-saver for anyone who writes a lot of custom code. While not WordPress-specific by default, Cursor lets you set rules — for example, to follow WordPress coding standards or use a specific PHP version.

You can also find and adapt community-made rules in the .



Check Nick Diego’s detailed video for how to use Cursor for WordPress development with Studio below:


Use the to get started.

Pricing​

Cursor has a free plan with limited features.

Paid plans start at $20/month for individuals and $40/month per user for teams (20% off when you go for a yearly plan).

3. Perplexity​

is an AI‑powered “answer engine” or conversational search tool.

It combines real‑time web access with large language models to generate natural‑language answers and cites its sources.



This makes it really useful for research, unlike static LLMs that may rely on outdated training data.

For example, it helps you quickly find up-to-date information on APIs, frameworks, or error messages through context-aware conversations — much faster than juggling multiple browser tabs. It’s especially useful for troubleshooting, debugging, and discovering additional resources.

Beyond that, Perplexity can do everything you’d expect from an LLM:

• Brainstorm ideas

• Generate or refine code snippets
• Debug and explain code, give feedback
• Act as a knowledge base

Paid users also have access to Perplexity Labs, an AI-powered productivity suite aiming to function as a virtual business or technical team.

It can handle a range of tasks, including data analysis and visualization, content generation, code writing and execution, and building interactive elements.



Overall, Perplexity is better for information gathering and big-picture planning for your website and business than coding.

It’s useful for generating quick code snippets, but since it lacks awareness of your site’s context, it’s less effective as a full development assistant compared to other tools on this list.

Learn Prompting has a great , and you can also use the .

Pricing​

Perplexity is free to use; its Pro pricing is $20/month (less if you buy an annual subscription).

4. OpenAI Codex​

is an agent running an OpenAI model optimized for software engineering that integrates with your GitHub repository.

It acts as a “virtual coworker” that you can assign routine work to — e.g., to write code, fix bugs, answer questions about your codebase, run linters and tests, and propose pull requests.

OpenAI Codex exists in two forms:

• A cloud-based version accessible via the ChatGPT interface.
• A local terminal tool called Codex CLI that’s open source and installable via npm.

You can access the cloud version from the sidebar of your ChatGPT account.



Once connected to your GitHub account and repository, simply write a new prompt and click on Code to start a coding task or click on Ask to ask the tool questions.



Codex allows multimodal input in the form of text, screenshots, or diagrams to clarify what you want it to do, and you can also provide guidelines in a file.

When it completes a task, the tool shows you exactly what it did so you can review, request additional changes, or open a pull request to merge the changes.

You can find three practical use cases in . In addition, check and, for Codex CLI, the .

Pricing​

Codex is available through ChatGPT’s paid plans, starting at about $25/month for Plus, $250/month for Pro, and $37 per user/month for Business.

5. Claude Code​

Similar to our last entry, is an agentic coding tool that runs in your terminal. It understands your codebase, and you can prompt it to perform routine tasks, explain code, and manage Git workflows via natural language commands.



Claude Code also integrates with , GitLab, IDEs like VSCode and JetBrains, as well as external tools like Slack and Jira.

Here’s what it can do:

• Build features: Tell the agent what you want to create, and it will write the code for you, including multi-file edits and refactors.
• Debugging: Share an error message or describe a bug. Claude Code will analyze your codebase, suggest fixes, and implement them automatically after approval. It can also manage Git workflows like commits, branches, and merge conflicts.
• Onboarding: The AI tool can map the structure of your codebase, explain dependencies, and highlight relevant files for new contributors. It also answers codebase questions and can even pull in context from external sources.
• Automate testing and code review: Automatically generate unit tests, pull request summaries, and receive code review comments. In addition, Claude Code can help translate functionality across languages and frameworks.
• Provide documentation: Generate or refine comments, notes, and module overviews to keep your codebase well-documented.

Claude Code is designed for developers of all levels who want to speed up their workflow and spend less time on repetitive tasks.

WordPress developers, for example, can use it to generate plugins or themes from simple prompts, debug issues like plugin conflicts or database errors, improve documentation, migrate legacy code to newer WordPress standards, and more.
