Description
Intent Flow is a powerful automation plugin for WordPress that lets you connect triggers (what happens) with actions (what to do automatically) – without limits, credits or subscriptions.
Why Intent Flow?
Most automation plugins either charge per execution, require a subscription, or send your data through external servers. Intent Flow is different:
- ✅ No credits – unlimited executions, forever free
- ✅ No subscription – one-time payment for Pro, free version stays free
- ✅ Self-hosted – your data never leaves your server (GDPR-friendly)
- ✅ Built-in scheduler – cron jobs included in the free version
- ✅ Dry-run mode – test automations safely before going live
- ✅ WCAG accessible UI – the only automation plugin built for accessibility
- ✅ Retry policy – automatic retry with exponential backoff on failures
- ✅ Permanent audit log – full execution history, never deleted

How it works

Accessibility
Intent Flow is built with accessibility in mind. The admin UI follows WCAG 2.1 guidelines, making it usable for people with visual, motor or cognitive disabilities. It is the only WordPress automation plugin with a fully accessible interface.
Privacy / GDPR
All data stays on your server. No external API calls are made unless you explicitly configure an integration (Slack, HTTP, etc.). No telemetry, no tracking, no data collection by the plugin author.
