Strattic raises $6.5M to bring static WordPress to the masses –

Funding Rounds

Summary

About 13 years ago, Strattic CEO and co-founder Miriam Schwab founded a WordPress web development company. It’s just all these things and as long as you can make it work — which was not simple — it’s just obvious from a business perspective.” With Strattic, users still get the usual WordPress experience, but the company only spins up a WordPress container when you are using it, which significantly reduces the attack surface, and then generates the static sites as you make changes. Those static sites obviously load very fast and also provide a smaller attack surface. VCs in Israel weren’t really looking to fund a WordPress company at the time, even though Strattic was growing (mostly organically) at a very nice pace and getting real customers. Currently, for example, there are still a few types of sites that don’t work with Strattic, including those that use the popular WooCommerce system, because they rely on database connections.
