What are past projects, failures, or successes you’ve had in your career?
Like many founders, our journey has been filled with both wins and stumbles — and every step brought us closer to Grigora.
We previously built and scaled SaaS products like Poper, an AI-powered onsite engagement platform, and Latracal, which explored automation in digital workflows. Some ideas took off. Others didn’t. But every failure taught us what truly matters: simplicity, speed, and real user value.
The biggest lesson? Tools shouldn’t slow creators down.
Grigora was born out of that belief — a platform that merges speed, control, and SEO into one streamlined experience. No clutter, no plugins, no delays. Just creation at the speed of thought.
We’re here because we’ve lived the struggle of building online. Now, we’re solving it — with you. 🚀

What’s the origin of the idea for your product?
Grigora started as a WordPress alternative. We were building sites on WordPress but constantly ran into bugs, slow performance, and plugin conflicts. Managing updates and fixing issues took more time than building content.
So we built Grigora—an all-in-one platform without the bloat. It’s fast, secure, and doesn’t rely on plugins. We created the platform we always wished WordPress could be.
What problem is your product solving and how?
Grigora solves the complexity and clutter of traditional CMS platforms. Most tools either require coding, rely heavily on plugins, or lack performance. Grigora changes that with a fast, all-in-one platform for websites, blogs, newsletters, and SEO—no plugins, no slowdowns.
What sets us apart? Blazing speed, built-in AI, internal linking, white-labeling, and newsletter tools—everything creators need, in one dashboard.
What’s the #1 thing you’re looking to gain from the AppSumo campaign?
We're looking to gain valuable feedback from the AppSumo community to fine-tune Grigora even further. At the same time, we're excited about the potential virality and word-of-mouth that can come from launching in front of such an engaged and passionate user base. We hope this campaign helps us discover new use cases, reach a global audience, and accelerate our roadmap through real-world insights.
What are your plans with the customers, cash, and learnings from the AppSumo campaign?
Our plan is to reinvest the revenue and insights from the AppSumo campaign directly into Grigora’s growth. We’ll double down on feature development, improve customer support, and expand integrations based on feedback from Sumo-lings. The learnings will shape our roadmap—especially around scalability, onboarding, and templates. If this goes well, we’ll accelerate our push into global markets, launch advanced AI capabilities, and build a tighter community around Grigora.
Any details to clarify about the deal?
There are no major country restrictions — Grigora works globally 🌍 and supports international users out of the box.
As for the deal, everything mentioned will be available from Day 1. The only add-on that isn’t part of the base tiers is WhiteLabel, which can be purchased separately from within the Grigora dashboard. It won’t be part of the AppSumo codes.
If anything changes or new features are added during the campaign, we’ll post updates in this thread to keep everyone in the loop.
Anything else you'd like to add?
We’re super excited to have you here and can’t wait for you to try out Grigora! 🙌
Grigora is more than just a product — it's something we've built with care, shaped by real-world frustrations and a deep passion for making the web easier for everyone. Your feedback and support mean the world to us, and we’re here for all of it — the questions, the suggestions, and the honest takes.
Thanks for being part of this journey. Let’s grow Grigora together 🚀 💜
