Best for drag-and-drop pages on WordPress
Beaver Builder is a page builder plugin and theme for WordPress, from $89 a year for one site. It runs only on WordPress with separate hosting, has no free plan or trial, and AI is left out of the cheapest plan.
Who Beaver Builder is for
- Fits if you already run WordPress and want to lay out pages visually
- Works for freelancers who can spread a 3-site or 50-site license
Who Beaver Builder is not for
- Skip it if you want one product with hosting, since you buy hosting and a domain separately
- Not for you if you want a free plan or trial before paying
- Tight if you want AI, which is not in the $89 Starter plan
- Watch out: white labelling and priority support only come with Unlimited at $546
- Pricey if you cancel later: prices are yearly only

Keep Beaver Builder, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Beaver Builder you would be making a builder that other people can use without writing code. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 54 of the 55 other website and landing page builders grade higher. It costs $89 a year.
What you could make
- Templates: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- A builder that other people can use without writing code.
- Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. Beaver Builder’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
What is Beaver Builder?
Beaver Builder is a WordPress page builder sold as a plugin, a companion theme and a Themer add-on for designing headers, footers and archives. Every plan has the same core tools; the tiers differ in the number of live sites, access to Beaver Builder AI and extras for agencies. Licenses are yearly.
Worth knowing
- It runs only on WordPress; hosting and a domain are separate.
- Starter excludes Beaver Builder AI, and multisite support starts at Professional.
- White labeling and priority support are only on Unlimited.
