Every Divi site collects small jobs. Alt text nobody wrote. Four slightly different blues. A hero section that looks right on desktop and cramped on a phone. None of it is hard, and all of it is clicking.

On September 3, 2026, Elegant Themes [released Divi AI Agents](https://www.elegantthemes.com/blog/theme-releases/introducing-divi-ai-agents) for Divi 5. It is a command box inside the Visual Builder: you describe the change in plain language and the agent makes it on the page, in real Divi sections, rows, and modules you can keep editing.

We read the announcement and the product page, checked the pricing, and worked out what it is good for and where it is not there yet. Here is the full picture.

## What Divi AI Agents actually are

Elegant Themes describes the agent as an intelligent command interface built into Divi 5 that understands natural language and takes real actions in the builder and the WordPress admin. In practice it is a chat panel. You open it with the Agent toggle in the Visual Builder toolbar, type what you want, and watch it work on the canvas.

Three details matter more than the marketing:

- It has two modes. Ask mode answers questions and suggests changes without touching your layout. Build mode makes the changes. You can start in Ask, then switch to Build once you like the plan.
- It asks before doing damage. Elegant Themes says the agent uses human-in-the-loop approval for destructive and high-impact actions, so deleting a section or unpublishing a page needs your confirmation.
- It is not one generic AI. The agent runs on more than 200 purpose-built skills for Divi and WordPress (220+ by the announcement’s count): reading modules, changing settings, managing presets and global variables, controlling the Theme Builder, searching the Divi documentation. For bigger jobs it spins up subagents that research modules, scaffold sections, and apply styles in parallel.

You also choose the model. Elegant Themes says you can pick from 400+ models or let Divi select one for the task, with the usual trade-off: stronger models for complex builds, cheaper and faster ones for simple edits.

## What you can ask it to do

The announcement groups the agent’s work into four areas. These are the ones we would actually use.

### Build a layout from almost anything

Describe a section in a sentence, paste a screenshot or a mockup, or give it a URL, and it builds real Divi sections, rows, modules, and styles. The output is editable Divi, not an image or a block of code, so you refine it the normal way afterwards.

### Edit what is already on the page

Redesign a hero, rearrange modules, change colors, adjust typography, rewrite copy, fix spacing. The agent works with global variables and presets too, so you can tell it to consolidate repeated styles into a preset or replace hard-coded values with variables. Elegant Themes’ line for this is that something which took dozens of clicks is now one sentence away.

### Run page-wide cleanups

This is the part that will save the most time. The announcement lists these as single-prompt jobs:

- Add missing alt text and improve accessibility settings
- Find inconsistent colors and consolidate them into global variables
- Standardize typography, spacing, buttons, and other repeated styles
- Improve responsive layouts across desktop, tablet, and phone
- Fix spelling, grammar, punctuation, and capitalization
- Refine messaging and calls to action across an entire page
- Find oversized images and other inefficient assets
- Review custom CSS and JavaScript and clean up unnecessary code

### Manage WordPress without leaving the builder

The agent can create, update, duplicate, publish, unpublish, and schedule pages and posts, and it handles menus, Theme Builder templates, Divi Library items, and Theme Options. The examples Elegant Themes gives are the clearest way to show it:

- “Create a new Services page as a draft and add it to the main menu”
- “Schedule this blog post for next Tuesday at 9 am”
- “Find all unpublished pages and give me their edit links”
- “Duplicate the About page and rename the copy to Our Team”

It doubles as support. Ask it whether to use Flexbox or Grid for a section, what the difference is between presets, variables, and global elements, or why a Theme Builder template is not applying, and it searches the documentation and inspects your actual page to answer.

## Rules, commands, and context

Three features turn one-off prompts into a workflow, and they are worth setting up on day one.

- Rules. Persistent instructions the agent follows in every conversation on a site: brand voice, which design variables to use, layout conventions. Set them once.
- Commands. Save a prompt you run often and trigger it with a slash, the same way you would in Slack. Accessibility checks, responsive cleanup, and content reviews are the obvious candidates.
- Context. Type @ to pull in a page, module, media item, or other site content, or click an element on the canvas to add it to the prompt. The more specific the context, the better the result.

Conversation history is kept, so you can pick a job back up later without re-explaining the site.

## Where it falls short right now

Some of this is Elegant Themes being upfront, and some is our reading of the launch. Both belong in a buying decision.

- Divi 5 only. The agent is a Divi 5 feature and there is no Divi 4 version. If your site is still on Divi 4, the migration comes first. Our [Divi 5 beginner’s guide](https://divicake.com/blog/divi-5-guide-for-beginners/) covers what changes, and if custom modules or an old child theme are in the way, [that is a job we do](https://divicake.com/services/).
- Thin outside the builder. Elegant Themes says so itself: the outside-the-builder skills are currently limited because the launch focus was the builder. Expect page and menu management to work. Do not expect it to run your whole wp-admin.
- Usage is metered. Every membership includes $5 of agent spend per month. Elegant Themes’ example is that generating an entire custom layout costs less than five cents, which means the allowance covers a lot of normal use. What heavier use costs beyond the allowance is not published on the pricing page at the time of writing.
- Model choice cuts both ways. 400+ models means quality and speed vary by pick. Leave it on automatic until you have a reason not to.
- It edits real pages. The approval step covers destructive actions, but treat it like a capable new team member: run big cleanups on a staging copy first, keep a backup, and read the changes before you publish.

## What Divi AI Agents cost

The agent is not sold separately. It comes with Divi AI, which is also inside Divi Pro. Prices below are the current launch discount, which Elegant Themes labels as limited time with no end date published.

| Plan  | Price  | What you get

| [Divi AI, yearly](https://divicake.com/go/divi-ai/) (you already own Divi)  | $9.60/mo, billed $115.20 for the year (60% off)  | The agent, unlimited layout, text, image, and code generation, the Quick Sites AI site builder, $60 of agent spend per year, access for all your team members

| Divi AI, monthly  | $12.96/mo (46% off), cancel anytime  | Same features on monthly billing

| [Divi Pro, yearly](https://divicake.com/go/get-divi-pro/) (new to Divi)  | $19.67/mo, billed $236 for the year (73% off)  | Divi, Divi AI, Divi Cloud, Divi VIP support, Divi Teams, $60 of agent spend per year

| Divi Lifetime + Pro  | $263 once, then $171/yr for the Pro services  | Lifetime Divi, with the Pro services on an annual renewal

One way to look at the yearly Divi AI price: $115.20 minus the $60 of included agent spend is $55.20 for the year, if you would use the agent anyway. Every plan carries a 30-day money-back guarantee, and new sign-ups currently get the Don Divi layout collection ($170 list value) as a bonus.

[Get Divi AI at 60% off](https://divicake.com/go/divi-ai/) if you already own Divi, or [get Divi Pro at 73% off](https://divicake.com/go/get-divi-pro/) if you are starting from scratch. Those are affiliate links. They cost you nothing extra and they keep the tutorials free.

For the full breakdown of the bundle, we compared [Divi Pro against buying the add-ons separately](https://divicake.com/blog/divi-pro-pricing-bundle-vs-addons/) and explained [what each Pro service does](https://divicake.com/blog/what-is-divi-pro/). If you are only after the theme, our [Divi discount guide](https://divicake.com/blog/divi-theme-discount/) lists every current way to pay less.

## Who should buy it, and who should wait

Buy it now if:

- You build Divi 5 sites for clients. Page-wide cleanups and layout scaffolding are the hours you cannot bill for.
- You run a content-heavy site on Divi 5 and publish or restructure pages every week.
- You already pay for Divi AI or Divi Pro. The agent is included, so the only cost is learning it.

Wait if:

- Your site is on Divi 4. Migrate first, then decide.
- Your site depends on third-party Divi modules that have not been rebuilt for Divi 5 yet. The agent cannot fix what the builder does not support.
- You touch your site a few times a year. One month on the monthly plan for a single cleanup makes more sense than the yearly.

## How to get started

- Update to the latest Divi 5. The agent does not appear on Divi 4.
- [Activate Divi AI](https://divicake.com/go/divi-ai/) on your Elegant Themes account, or make sure your Divi Pro membership is active.
- Open a page in the Visual Builder and click the Agent toggle in the toolbar.
- Start in Ask mode. Ask it to list the page’s inconsistencies before you let it change anything.
- Add two or three rules: your brand colors as variables, your fonts, your spacing scale.
- Switch to Build mode and run one cleanup on a staging copy. Review it, then repeat on the live site.

## Frequently asked questions

### Do I need Divi 5 to use the Divi AI Agent?

Yes. Elegant Themes states it is a Divi 5 feature designed for the Divi 5 builder. There is no Divi 4 version.

### Is the agent included with Divi AI?

Yes. It is included with a Divi AI membership and with Divi Pro. There is no separate agent product to buy.

### What does agent spend cover?

The model usage behind agent tasks. Every membership includes $5 per month, which is $60 per year. Elegant Themes’ example is under five cents for a full custom layout. Pricing for use beyond the allowance is not listed on the pricing page yet.

### Can the agent break my site?

It can change anything the builder can change, which is why Elegant Themes added an approval step for destructive and high-impact actions. Back up first and use a staging copy for large jobs.

### Does it replace the existing Divi AI features?

No. Divi AI still includes [text, image, and code generation](https://divicake.com/blog/divi-ai/) and the [Quick Sites builder](https://divicake.com/blog/divi-quick-sites/). The agent sits alongside them inside the same membership.

### Can it answer Divi questions?

Yes. It searches the Divi documentation and inspects the page you are working on, so the answers are specific to your site rather than generic.

Divi AI Agents are the first Divi feature that changes how you work rather than what you can build, and the launch is solid where it counts: inside the builder, on real pages, with an approval step. Start with cleanups, add rules early, and keep a backup.
