Visual drag-and-drop page builder with in-place text editing and 500+ pre-made blocks; Pro adds theme, popup and WooCommerce builders plus AI site generation.
Brizy is a front-end visual builder for WordPress that puts simplicity first. Text is edited in place by clicking and typing, settings appear in small toolbars next to the element, and layouts are assembled from rows, columns and pre-designed blocks. Brizy also runs a hosted cloud builder, and saved blocks and layouts can be synced between WordPress and Brizy Cloud for reuse on other sites.
The free plugin on WordPress.org includes the core elements (text, buttons, images, icons, video, maps, forms and more), more than 500 pre-made blocks, 4,000+ icons, global colours and fonts, a mobile and tablet view for device-specific changes, undo/redo, hover animations and form elements with validation. Recent releases added HTML compilation for faster pages, an animated headline element, accessibility improvements and AI features.
A 30-day money-back guarantee applies, and promo codes often reduce the first payment.
Brizy is one of the easier builders for non-designers and its Pro plans are inexpensive for the number of sites covered. Pro covers the main site-building needs, including ACF-based dynamic content, display conditions on global blocks and popups, and WooCommerce templates. On the other hand, its element count is smaller than Elementor’s, custom CSS is Pro only, the free version is fairly limited for full sites, and the developer ecosystem and third-party add-ons are thin.
Brizy suits small businesses, freelancers and agencies wanting a clean, approachable visual builder with affordable multi-site Pro licences, rather than developers who need deep extensibility.
Best for: Small businesses, freelancers and agencies who want an easy visual builder with affordable multi-site Pro licences.
Brizy is a friendly, cleanly designed builder whose Pro plans deliver theme, popup and WooCommerce building at a low price per site. It is less extensible than Elementor or Bricks and the free version is basic, but it is a solid pick for non-technical users.

Our estimate, see method below.
How we estimated this: Website scans by WPoptic find the paid plugin (folder brizy-pro) on 12,039 live sites; they find the free version on 19,513 sites against about 65K WordPress.org installs, so each site found stands for about 3.3, giving 40K. About 65K free installs x 20% (the usual share of free sites that also run the paid version when many key features are paid) gives 13K. Combining these (weighted average) gives about 34K. Likely range: 22K to 51K. This counts sites running the paid version, including sites whose licence has lapsed. Estimates are rough and based on public figures as of 14 Oct 2026.
