What you get

Six things Pushword does well.

AI-native editing: Flat-file mode means Cursor, Claude, and Copilot work directly with your content. No middleware, no API layers.
Cutting-edge stack: PHP 8.4, Symfony 8, Doctrine 3, Tailwind 4. Modern features, strict typing, PHPStan enforced.
SEO-first design: Built by an SEO consultant. Meta, schema, dead-link detection, internal linking, OpenGraph: all built in.
Multi-site and i18n native: No WPML. No plugins. Multiple sites and languages live in the core.
Deploy anywhere: Static generation is built in. GitHub Pages, Netlify, Vercel, or any PHP host.
Page versioning: Track changes, compare versions side by side, restore with confidence. Full history.
