What Bertha AI does

An AI writing assistant built for page builders, generating copy inside the editor.

It sits in the ai writing part of a WordPress stack and is sold by Bertha AI on a freemium basis. We recommend it in our ai writing guides because it does that one job well without asking you to rebuild the rest of the site around it.

Every plugin adds work to a page request, so treat this as a decision with a cost. Record a speed test before you install it and run the same test afterwards, on the same page, so you know exactly what it charged you.

Real user ratings

Bertha AI is sold outside the WordPress.org directory, so there is no public user rating to quote. Our own editorial score is 4.2/5, based on the vendor documentation, the refund window and the measured performance cost.

Where Bertha AI ranks elsewhere

Bertha AI does not appear in the published "best of" lists we track from WPBeginner, TechRadar, Kinsta, Themeisle and similar sites. That is not a mark against it - those roundups are short and skew towards the biggest names.

What changed in the latest version

Bertha AI does not publish a changelog we can read automatically, so check the vendor's own release notes before you update a live site.
