create apps on WordPress
Pottr gives WordPress the application layer it needs to power structured data, APIs, app users, and backend events. So you can build beyond the CMS without moving your client to another platform.
Get early accessA directory, client portal, or booking tool often starts simply. Then come relationships, app users, permissions, API logic, and integrations.
Before long, you're stitching together post types, plugins, and custom code to make WordPress work like an application backend.
Clients manage content and review records in the native WordPress admin they already know.
Clean relational SQL tables, schema relations, JWT auth & real-time webhook pipeline.
Build portals, booking systems, or SaaS on React, Next.js, Vue, or mobile apps.
Every web app needs its own product logic. But the foundation is often the same: structured data, relationships, APIs, authentication, permissions, and events.
Pottr brings that recurring application infrastructure together inside WordPress. Focus your engineering time on the parts that make your client's product different.
Get early accessDefine collections, fields, and relationships for the data your app actually runs on. Without forcing application data into posts and custom fields.
Access your data through predictable endpoints with built-in filtering, sorting, and pagination. Ready for your frontend to consume.
Keep your app users separate from WordPress administrators. Give your application its own authentication layer without mixing it with your site's admin access.
Trigger signed events when your data changes and connect your app with the services around it.
Keep your application data on your own WordPress infrastructure. No separate backend to manage. No external database to sync.
