The only free plugin with alerting,
IP rules and a health dashboard

Every competing plugin charges for the features that matter most when something actually goes wrong. AuditPulse includes all of them at no cost.

01

Real-time alerts, completely free

WP Activity Log charges $99 per year for email alerts. AuditPulse includes email and Slack alerts with zero cost and no plan required.

02

IP address on every single event

Simple History and Activity Log do not log IP addresses on most events. AuditPulse records the IP on every entry including content edits and settings changes.

03

Your data stays on your server

Some plugins sync logs to their own cloud. AuditPulse stores everything in your own WordPress database. Nothing is sent outside your hosting environment.

04

GPL licenced, no vendor lock-in

Open source and hosted on WordPress.org. You own your data and are never dependent on a subscription to access your own activity logs.

AuditPulse vs the alternatives

Side by side with WP Activity Log, Simple History and Activity Log. Free versions only, no marketing spin.
