ElementNode
The CMS for the AI-agent era

AI agents build and edit your site. You can too — like Elementor.

Claude Code and Codex build — and update — entire sites on Element Node; you or your clients polish them in a familiar visual editor, the way you always have. Open source, self-hosted, Next.js-fast.

The agent builds

Canvas ready…

You and your client edit, Elementor-style

Everything you expect from a CMS, built for the agent era

The visual editor you already know — on a stack AI agents can drive. Performance and security WordPress cannot match.

3-panel visual editor

Widgets · canvas · properties. Drag & drop as smooth as Elementor PRO, rendered in React Server Components.

AI that actually edits

On first install, describe your business and the AI generates your homepage. Then the side AI panel mutates the widget tree with structured operations — all undoable and hand-editable.

51 widgets out of the box

Core, Pro and theme: hero, sliders, forms, gallery, countdown, reviews, Lottie and everything else. Each with a TypeScript schema.

Responsive preview

Desktop / tablet / mobile in one click. Per-breakpoint overrides with visual controls.

Lighthouse 95+ by default

SSR with smart caching, image optimization via sharp, no plugin overhead.

Security by design

No PHP, no wp-admin, no XML-RPC. Minimal attack surface.

Multi-user with roles

Admin, Editor, Author, Viewer. NextAuth sessions with JWT.

Deploy anywhere

Plesk, VPS, Docker. Next.js standalone output: one tidy directory.

Build with Claude Code & Codex

Your AI agent writes pages that conform to the builder: prompt in, native widgets out, everything editable in the editor.

Official skill, always updated

Open source on GitHub, free for everyone. On paid plans you download it from the panel, with a ready-made command for your agent.

AI · Anthropic Claude

The AI that builds with you, not for you

Ask in plain English. The AI emits real operations on the widget tree: it creates sections, swaps images, rewrites copy, recolors palettes. Every change appears in the editor — and Cmd+Z works.

The official skill for AI agents

Claude Code and Codex already know how to build with Element Node

Today's AI agents write pages perfectly conforming to the builder — if you give them the right instructions. Our official skill does exactly that: the CMS's widgets, layout rules, APIs and best practices. You write a prompt, they build like a pro.

Pages that conform to the builder

No pasted HTML: the agent uses the same 51 widgets as the editor. Everything stays hand-editable, element by element.

The editor stays yours

You or your clients keep working in the Elementor-style visual editor you've known for years. The prompt is a fast lane, not a cage.

Free and continuously updated

The skill is open source on GitHub, free for everyone. On paid plans you always get the latest packaged version from the CMS panel, with a ready-made command for Claude Code.

Native Next.js

WordPress, 10 seconds behind.

Same server. Same page. Element Node loads faster and handles more traffic — because there’s no PHP, there are RSC.

Security by design

Security is not a plugin.

Element Node ships with a minimal attack surface. No exposed wp-admin, no XML-RPC, no web-writable PHP. Updates owned by your team, not third parties.

  • No PHP
    Just Node.js. A whole class of legacy vulnerabilities walks out the door.
  • No mandatory 3rd-party plugins
    Core features are in the core, not pulled from public repos.
  • Argon-compatible password hashing
    bcrypt with proper cost. No MD5 leftovers.
  • JWT-signed sessions
    NextAuth v5, httpOnly cookies, rotation handled.
  • Security headers on by default
    CSP-friendly, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy out of the box.
  • Native audit logs
    Every admin action is logged and searchable.
