AmodX: Serverless CMS for Technical Agencies

Speed. Security. Infrastructure You Own - Stop Paying Rent.

Clone The Repo - Instructions Included

Stop Debugging Plugins. Start Architecting Flows.

You chose WordPress because someone said it was simple.

Now you maintain 30 plugins. Your client's site breaks every Friday. You spend more time fixing conflicts than shipping features.

This is the Frankenstein Stack. And it's killing your agency.

The Problem You Didn't Sign Up For

WordPress promised simplicity. It delivered dependency hell.

Every plugin adds:

• 15 database queries per page

• 3 security vulnerabilities you don't know about

• 1 more thing that breaks on update

Your tech stack looks like this:

• WordPress (slow, insecure, breaks)

• Elementor (bloated, generates garbage code)

• WooCommerce (57 plugin conflicts documented)

• Gravity Forms (another $199/year)

• RankMath (slows your site by 40%)

• Security plugin (because the others leak)

• Backup plugin (because you're scared)

You're not building websites anymore. You're maintaining chaos.

Why Not Just Fix WordPress?

You can't fix architectural problems with plugins. Here's what you're actually comparing:

WordPress adds security layers. AMODX eliminates the attack surface.

What Technical Agencies Actually Need

You don't need more plugins. You need fewer problems.

You need a system that:

• Loads in 80ms, not 3 seconds

• Costs $0/month when idle, not $50/month always

• Updates without breaking, not Russian roulette

• Runs on modern infrastructure, not PHP from 2004

• Generates content with context, not blank text boxes

You need control. Not compromise.

AMODX: The Agency Operating System

AMODX is what you'd build if you started from scratch today.

Serverless architecture. No always-on server. No database to hack. No plugins to conflict.

Content that understands strategy. Your brand voice, personas, and offers live in the Brain. Agents generate drafts that match your context. You approve or edit.

Modern stack. Built on AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, and EventBridge. The same infrastructure Netflix uses. Scales to millions. Costs pennies.

The Architecture Difference

WordPress:

• 57 HTTP requests per page

• 1.2 second load time

• PHP + MySQL + Apache stack

• Plugin update breaks layout

• Hacked via outdated contact form

AMODX:

• 3 HTTP requests per page

• 0.08 second load time

• Lambda + DynamoDB + CDN

• Updates don't touch your content

• No attack surface when idle

This site runs on AMODX. It loads instantly. It costs $0 when you're not here.

And this is how you manage it: Admin Guide: Managing AMODX .

Questions Technical Agencies Ask

Q: Will AWS costs spike if a client goes viral?

No. Serverless scales linearly. 1 million Lambda requests cost ~$0.20. CloudFront bandwidth costs ~$0.085/GB after free tier. If your client gets 10 million hits, they should be paying you enough to cover the $50-100 AWS bill. Set AWS Budget Alarms to monitor.

Q: What if I don't know AWS?

The Zero-Config Deployer CLI handles infrastructure setup. You run one command: <code>npx amodx deploy</code>. It provisions DynamoDB, Lambda, CloudFront, and SSL automatically. You don't need to understand IAM policies to start—but you'll learn them as you grow.

Q: How do I migrate existing WordPress sites?

Content migration is manual (export/import). Theme conversion takes some tweaking for each site (rebuild layouts as React components). Not a one-click process - unless it's mostly a text site - but you do it once and eliminate years of maintenance hell. Start with your most painful client (40+ plugins, constant issues). Use that success story to sell the next 5.

Q: What about plugins? My clients need specific features.

90% of plugin functionality can be embedded (calendars, forms, chat widgets from specialized SaaS). For custom logic, you write Lambda functions. Trade: exchange "install plugin" convenience for "write code once, own forever" control. Charge $2,000 for custom development instead of praying free plugins stay maintained. Or get the founders license below and tell me what you need implemented.

Q: Can smaller clients afford this?

Yes. AWS will cost you $0-4/month per site (vs. whatever you pay for WordPress hosting). The more clients you have, the lower your cost per client - unless they have millions of hits, you can host 100 sites with roughly the same cost (maybe $4 a month). You charge setup fees and a retainer instead of recurring hosting. You work less, earn higher margins. Clients get faster, modern looking, more secure, and LLM-discoverable sites.

Not For Everyone

This is not for bloggers who want drag-and-drop.

This is for technical agency owners who:

• Run 5+ client sites

• Are tired of WordPress maintenance hell

• Want to own their infrastructure

• Understand that serverless scales better than shared hosting

• Value architecture over plugins

Or founders who just want to iterate fast. If you're still reading, this is for you.

For The Early Adopters

AMODX is open source (Apache 2.0). Clone the repo for free.

But agencies don't buy code. They buy certainty.

The Founder's Circle opens January 2026. Limited to 50 members. $299 lifetime access includes:

• Direct access to the architect (me)

• Priority roadmap influence (you tell me what to build)

• The business-in-a-box assets (pitch decks, contracts, checklists)

• Zero-config deployer (handles AWS setup automatically)

• Membership in a network of technical builders

You're not paying for the code. You're buying a seat at the table.

Limited to the first 50 founders. After that, we close the gates to focus on the roadmap.

The Real Cost of WordPress (Hidden Until You're Trapped)

WordPress is expensive when you count labor. AMODX is cheap when you own the stack.

The Better Approach

Your clients don't need another WordPress site that breaks.

They need infrastructure that works. AMODX is that infrastructure.

Contact me if you're interested. Or clone the repo and figure it out yourself: https://github.com/andreirx/amodx - it's easy because I included all necessary instructions.

Start with the Admin Guide and:

• If you need DIY resources I am also preparing workflow videos (setup, add tenant), a very detailed guide to running your own agency using AMODX, and a "founder's circle" where you also get to influence the roadmap.

• If you want something like AMODX but integrated with your existing workflows, you probably need this.

This site loads in 80ms. It runs on AWS Lambda. It costs $0/month when you aren't here. Built with AMODX.
