Switching from Simply Static?

Sintr vs Simply Static Studio

Simply Static is the best-known static WordPress plugin, and Simply Static Studio is its hosted platform. Like Sintr, Studio keeps WordPress offline until you edit and serves a static copy. The differences are in pricing, client access and how far AI tools can go.
