FormRank WP
AI lead scoring for WordPress forms
The problem I kept seeing:
I've worked with small businesses running WordPress sites, and the same problem kept coming up: they'd get 50-100 form submissions a week, and someone on the team
had to manually read through every single one to figure out who was worth calling. Most submissions were junk — tire kickers, spam, people not ready to buy.
Enterprise tools like HubSpot ($800+/mo) and Marketo ($2,000+/mo) solve this with lead scoring, but no SMB with a $50/mo marketing budget can justify that.
What I'm building:
FormRank WP is a WordPress plugin that automatically scores every form submission using Claude AI (by Anthropic). It evaluates four factors:
- Intent (40%) — Is there urgency? A timeline? Budget mentioned?
- Fit (30%) — Does this person match your ideal customer?
- Quality (20%) — Business email vs. Gmail? Complete form vs. half-filled?
- Engagement (10%) — Detailed message or one-liner?
Each lead gets a score from 1-100 and a label: Hot, Warm, Neutral, Cool, or Cold. Hot leads trigger instant email notifications so you never miss a ready-to-buy
prospect.
It works with the forms people already use — WPForms, Gravity Forms, Contact Form 7, Fluent Forms, and Formidable Forms. No migration needed.
Pricing:
- Free tier: 15 AI-scored leads/month (unlimited capture + local scoring)
- Pro: $149/year for unlimited AI scoring
- Agency: $299/year for 10 sites + white-label
That's roughly 1/160th the price of HubSpot's lead scoring.
Where I'm at:
- Plugin is built and submitted to WordPress.org (waiting for review)
- Marketing site is live at https://formrankwp.com
- Collecting waitlist signups
- Cloudflare Worker handles the API proxy so users never touch an API key
Tech stack: PHP (WordPress plugin), Cloudflare Workers (API proxy), Claude API (Anthropic) for scoring, Freemius for licensing.
What I'd love feedback on:
1. Does $149/year feel right for unlimited AI lead scoring?
2. Which form plugin integrations matter most to you?
3. Would you pay for Slack/Teams notifications on hot leads?
Would love to hear from anyone who's dealt with this problem or built WordPress plugins. Happy to answer any questions about the build.
