Launch in seconds
WordPress, its database, and caching are ready before you get lost in a setup guide.
Instant WordPress sandboxes
WordPress,
minus the
setup spiral.
Launch a real WordPress site in seconds, then get straight into wp-admin. Try it for 3 days, then pay $5/month to keep building.
Real WordPress Any plugin HTTPS included 7-day sandboxes
An isolated WordPress environment for each idea, with a clear 7-day lifetime. How site data is handled
The real thing
Yep, that’s WordPress.
Launch a site, grab your credentials, and jump into wp-admin. It’s the full WordPress, ready for your themes and plugins.

Good questions
Before you set sail.
Here’s how trials, site limits, and WordPress access work.
Is this real WordPress?
Yes — the full, standard WordPress. You get complete wp-admin access and can install any theme or plugin, export your content, and work exactly the way you would anywhere else.
Do sites really launch in seconds?
Yes. After you start your trial, hit launch and your site is online before you have time to switch tabs — WordPress installed, database connected, HTTPS active.
What happens after 7 days?
Your sandbox expires after 7 days and its site data is automatically deleted. Export any content you want to keep before then. WordSail is for demos, tests, and quick builds rather than permanent hosting. You can launch another site, with up to 2 active at a time.
Are sites isolated from each other?
Yes. Each site has its own Linux user and file permissions, a dedicated PHP-FPM pool, and separate database credentials. Your sandbox is a real WordPress installation with its own environment.
Can I use my own domain?
Not yet. Every site gets a .wordsail.site address with HTTPS included. Custom domains are on the roadmap.
How much does WordSail cost?
You can try WordSail for 3 days. After the trial, the plan costs $5 per month. If you need free access, email hello@wordsail.com to request a 100% discount.
Can I cancel or get a refund?
Yes. Cancel anytime; there are no long-term contracts. Your first monthly charge is refundable within 7 days of payment. Email hello@wordsail.com to request a refund.
Meet the builder
The sandbox is just the start.
SharifBuilder of WordSail and PressCtlSharif on GitHub
I'm Sharif. I work across Linux, Laravel, React, and WordPress, and built PressCtl to make WordPress infrastructure easier to run.
WordSail starts with instant WordPress sandboxes powered by that provisioning work. I'm building toward a fuller infrastructure platform that helps people manage security, caching, scaling, and the rest of the work behind a WordPress site.
The aim is simple: let people spend more time on what they came to build.
