PluginSprout
WordPress plugins, each built for one job. pluginsprout.com lists 7 plugins and 1 bundle: add-ons for WooCommerce, LearnDash and AffiliateWP, and Appointure, a booking plugin.
Websites and custom web apps
We design Squarespace sites and look after WordPress and Wix sites. When a website builder runs out, we build the software: booking systems, quote tools, and stores with their own pricing rules. We make our own WordPress tools, and we automate CRM, ERP and GoHighLevel workflows.

What products does DistroCode make?
We make our own software as well as client sites: PluginSprout, a line of WordPress plugins sold at pluginsprout.com (7 plugins and 1 bundle), and SiteBridge, an AI tool for WordPress that we are still building.
SiteBridge
A plugin that lets an AI assistant work on a WordPress site. Every change it proposes waits as a draft until a person approves it. In development, version 0.5.0.
Who has been building this since 2017?
We have built websites and web apps for clients since 2017, and in 2023 we registered DistroCode LLC in Michigan. Our portfolio holds 17 client projects. Two of them are custom builds in Laravel and React: an event booking system for Larsa and a parts shop for AMS Find Parts that quotes in CAD and USD.
We also make our own software. PluginSprout sells 7 WordPress plugins and 1 bundle that we wrote and maintain. SiteBridge, a tool that lets AI assistants work on a WordPress site, is in testing on our own lab sites and is not for sale yet.

Seven of the 17, each linked to its project page.
-
Larsa
Laravel and React
What they needed: one place to record each event’s guest count, adult and child menus, drinks, bar style and timing, and seating.
What we built: a booking system where clients enter their own details and event date and pay in four installments before the event. Staff search bookings by name, contract number or date, and manage menu and bar items on their own pages.
-
AMS Find Parts
Laravel
What they needed: a computer parts shop that sells to businesses and to the public.
What we built: search by part number or name, direct orders at list price, and quote requests for bulk buys that admins can negotiate. The admin side tracks stock, flags low inventory and raises purchase orders with partial or full receipts. Pricing can be set per organization, prices run in CAD and USD, and tax is collected from CAD clients only. Products import in bulk from XLS or XML.
-
Onwards (Out-Lifts)
Laravel and React
What they needed: an e-learning platform for lift engineers.
-
BelloKau
Laravel
What they needed: an online shop for a company in Germany, with stock and page content the owner can edit.
-
A-1 Courier
WordPress
What they needed: a same-day delivery website where customers can price, book and track a delivery.
-
Facto Stream
React
What they needed: a site that publishes articles and videos on science, technology, history and business.
-
Airbourne
Squarespace
What they needed: a website for a drone services company that sprays, spreads fertilizer, maps farms and sprays roofs and drains.
Some work outgrows a website. We build that as a web app: Laravel on the server, React or Vue for the screens people use.
Most project pages name the platform and the work we did. None of them claims a sales figure or a traffic result, because we have not measured one we could show you.
AI in our own products
Our AI Product Recommender is a chat widget that finds products in a WooCommerce store. In its next release, it can only quote a price it looked up in the store. Our test for that rule runs 24 checks, and all 24 passed on 9 October 2026.
Can you automate the work behind the website?
Yes. We automate workflows with AI, and we do CRM, ERP and GoHighLevel work. The aim is that a customer’s details are typed in once and reach every system that needs them.
- Forms, CRM, email and invoices.
- A website enquiry becomes a CRM contact, starts the follow-up email, and later becomes an invoice, without anyone copying it across.
- GoHighLevel.
- We set up the sales pipelines and the automations that act when a lead moves to the next stage.
- ERP.
- We connect the system that keeps your orders, stock and accounts to your CRM and your website.
- AI steps a person approves.
- AI sorts incoming enquiries or drafts a reply, and someone on your team reads it and approves it before anything goes out to a customer.
We map the workflow before we build, and we test every automation on a copy before it touches live records.
How do we work on your site?
A backup or a staging copy comes first. Then we find the cause and tell you what we will change. After the fix you get a short written summary: what was wrong and what we did.
A staging copy is a private duplicate of your site. Your customers keep using the live one while we work, so they never see a half-done fix.
Here is one fix written up the way you would receive it. It comes from our own staging store, not a client. We switched every payment gateway off on purpose to test the fix.
- Concern
- The checkout said “There are no payment methods available.”
- Cause
- Every payment gateway was switched off.
- Correction
- We turned on Check payments and placed test order #13 for $24.00. It went through.
The store ran WordPress 7.1.2. The whole fault fits in three lines because the cause was a single setting. Most faults take longer to trace, and the note still keeps to the same three lines.
Which platform should your website use?
If you already have a site, the better question may be whether to stay where you are. Here is how we weigh it, as people who work on both.
Squarespace suits a site whose store, bookings or members fit its built-in tools. The company hosts it, runs the software and keeps it updated. You give up most control over the code in exchange for fewer things that can break.
WordPress suits a site that needs a store, bookings, memberships or anything built to order. You choose the host and the plugins, which gives you more room. It also means updates are your job, or the job of whoever you hire.
Wix sits closer to Squarespace: the company hosts it and you edit it in the browser. We work on Wix sites too, for fixes and upkeep. If you would rather be on WordPress, we can move a Wix site across.
If you are unsure, tell us what the site has to do. We will say which platform we would pick for that, and why.
Who should not hire us?
We would rather say this now than after you have sent access.
- Your budget is below what it costs to find the cause. We do not guess at a fix we have not traced.
- You need someone on call around the clock. We do not offer 24/7 cover.
- You want us to host the site. We move it to the host you choose; we do not host it.
What happens after you write to us?
We answer a first message within one working day, Monday to Friday.
We work on your site and your host with the access you give us, on WordPress, Squarespace, Wix or a custom web app built in Laravel with React or Vue.
Every job ends with the written summary, so you keep a record of what we found and what we changed.
Questions people ask
How much does WordPress maintenance cost a month?
The care plan is $99 a month. Updates run once a week, on a weekday, on a copy of your site first, and you get a daily backup and a written note at the end of the month. The WooCommerce store plan is $229 a month and adds a checkout test after every update. Details are on the WordPress maintenance page.
Does Squarespace use WordPress?
No. Squarespace and WordPress are separate platforms, and a site runs on one or the other. We work on both. If you are on Squarespace, the contact form has a Squarespace website design option.
How do I reach DistroCode?
Email sales@distrocode.com or use the contact form. Send the page address and what you see on it. We reply with next steps in writing within one working day, Monday to Friday.
