Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com, has acquired Atavist (as of June 21, 2018). Here at Atavist, we have always sought to make it easy for our community of storytellers to build with our easy-to-use tools so you can focus on what matters: your content. And we’re thrilled to continue to do that with a platform as powerful as WordPress.



So, what does this mean for you, an Atavist user? Although the precise specifics of the transition will be worked out in the upcoming weeks, the goal is to integrate Atavist features into WordPress. Our hope is to seamlessly provide the features that you’ve come to rely on along with the many advantages of WordPress’s massive scope, stability, and open-source philosophy. In the meantime, you can continue publishing as usual on the platform.

Stay tuned. We will write users soon with more details and will keep the Docs site up-to-date with information about the transition, but if you have any questions in the meantime, please don’t hesitate to write us: support@atavist.com.
