Hummingbird Performance with AI, on every WordPress site you look after

Caching and optimisation plugins make a site fast until an update or a host change quietly turns a setting off, and nobody measures it again. WebCrew monitors the site 24/7, matches Hummingbird Performance's installed version against the vulnerability databases, and updates it with a restore point when you say go.

Connecting

How to connect a site that runs Hummingbird Performance, and what we recommend

Where the host allows SSH keys, we recommend SSH: every file compared, not only what WordPress reports, and cleanup help when a site is compromised. Where it does not, the connector plugin covers monitoring, updates and Hummingbird Performance's version check in five minutes.

Connector plugin

Upload in wp-admin. No server access needed.

24/7 uptime, health score, versions, administrators
Vulnerability matching and updates with a restore point
One-click login, DNS and mail settings

Five minutes. Remove the plugin and the site is disconnected.

Recommended

SSH

One key, scoped to the site's user on the server.

Everything the connector does
File-level integrity checks and faster updates with a full restore point
Malware cleanup and staging copies, when a site needs them

Ten minutes. The key is revoked from your dashboard at any time.

How connecting works, step by step

Questions

Before you connect a Hummingbird Performance site

Does WebCrew add anything that slows the site?

No. Monitoring is requests from outside; the connector adds no front-end assets and does not touch Hummingbird Performance's cache.

Does it clear Hummingbird Performance's cache after an update?

Not today. It records the update and the difference; clearing the cache remains a step in Hummingbird Performance. The assistant is planned to draft that as an action.

Will it measure page speed?

Page speed per page is coming soon. Uptime and response time from two regions are included today.

Does it work with a CDN in front of the site?

Yes. Uptime checks reach the site the way visitors do; the connector works from inside.

Do I have to install anything besides Hummingbird Performance?

One of two things: the WebCrew connector plugin, uploaded in wp-admin like any plugin, or one SSH key for the site's own user. Nothing else changes on the site.

Can I use my own Claude or ChatGPT with a site that runs Hummingbird Performance?

Yes. Connect your tool to WebCrew over MCP and ask about the site from your own chat. Reading is instant; changes are made for you, logged, and undone in one click.

What does it cost for a site running Hummingbird Performance?

The first site is free, for as long as you like. Every site after that is billed per site per day, monthly, for the days it was on. Plugins are never counted.

Is my content or Hummingbird Performance's data used to train anything?

No. Your content is never sold and never used to train a model, by WebCrew or by a provider it uses.

What if Hummingbird Performance is a premium plugin with a licence?

It updates through its own licence. WebCrew shows the pending version, takes the restore point first and keeps the code difference, the same as for any other plugin.
