Overview
About AutomagicWP
AutomagicWP distributes WordPress plugins and themes. Upload a release once, connected sites update on their own through WordPress's native update mechanism. No logging into individual wp-admin dashboards.
The workflow it replaces: finish a build, package a ZIP, log into each client's site, upload it, confirm you want to replace the existing version, reactivate, next site. Once a year, fine. Once a month across twenty sites, not fine.
Releases track changelogs and PHP requirements. Plugin pages support icons, banners, and screenshots, so wp-admin looks like a proper product listing.
For automation: push a GitHub tag, the release ships. Need to integrate updates into your own tooling? There's a REST API. A Composer package hooks into native WordPress update checks on the client side.
Built for agencies managing client portfolios, solo devs tired of the ZIP loop, and anyone distributing a premium plugin or theme who wants distribution without a full commerce platform attached.
About CloudBurn
CloudBurn is for teams using Terraform or AWS CDK who want to prevent expensive infrastructure mistakes before they reach production. Most teams discover AWS cost problems weeks later on their bill, after the infrastructure is already running and the money is spent. CloudBurn changes this by showing AWS costs during code review, when changes are easy to make.
Here's how it works:
- A developer opens a pull request with infrastructure changes (Terraform or AWS CDK).
- CloudBurn automatically analyzes the changes using real-time AWS pricing.
- A cost report appears in your PR, showing exactly what each change will cost per month.
- Your team discusses costs during code review and adjusts before deployment.
What you get:
- Automatic cost analysis on every infrastructure PR
- Real-time AWS pricing for your specific region
- Resource-level breakdown showing old vs. new monthly costs
Stop optimizing reactively. Catch costly decisions during code review when they're easy to fix.
