Automattic launched Spacefast, a new company for building and publishing websites and apps with existing AI tools. The launch was announced on November 9, 2026. Spacefast is available now at spacefast.com and is free to start.
How it works
Spacefast connects with AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Grok Bot, and Cursor. Users can ask their preferred AI about Spacefast.com to get setup help. The service gives the AI expert building instructions and a database before work begins.
Backing and infrastructure
Batuhan İçöz is the founder and CEO of Spacefast. He joined Automattic through its acquisition of Texts. Spacefast runs on WordPress.com infrastructure, which handles more than 15 billion page views a month.
Pricing and plans
Spacefast is free to start with a user's AI tool of choice. The Go plan costs US$5 a month and adds unlimited spaces. The Pro plan costs US$15 per member each month and includes team features and early access to new features.
Spacefast plans to add built-in app authentication, transactional email, and shared team knowledge in the coming weeks. Those features will include team playbooks, past decisions, and brand context. Teams can share work through private links and comment directly on pages.
