Field Forge is the cheapest paid WordPress custom fields plugin with:
- Custom table storage (unique in the paid category)
- AI schema generation (unique across all options)
- TypeScript + GraphQL generation (unique across all options)
- Full ACF compatibility layer for zero-risk migration
For developers and agencies, this is the best value in the category.
AI credits
Every paid plan includes a one-time bonus of 100 AI credits granted at first activation. Credits power AI schema generation and AI field type suggestions. A 14-day trial also includes a flat 100 credits.
Tiers differ only by site count (Personal = 1 site, Professional = 10 sites, Agency = unlimited). There is no monthly credit pool — everyone starts with the same 100-credit bonus and tops up as needed.
Need more? Buy a top-up pack — packs never expire:
- 250 credits — $3
- 1,000 credits — $9
- 5,000 credits — $35
- 25,000 credits — $149
Refund penalty: 0–1 refunds → the full 100-credit bonus applies on your next activation; 2 refunds → 50 credits; 3+ refunds → 0.
Typical AI credit usage
- Single field group generation: ~2 credits
- Bulk generation (5 field groups at once): ~10 credits
- Field type suggestion: <1 credit (batched)
Your 100-credit activation bonus covers roughly 50 field group generations. When you run out, a single $3 pack adds 250 more credits that never expire — most teams never need more than that.
Frequently asked questions
What does “unlimited sites” mean on Agency?
You can install and activate Field Forge on any number of WordPress sites you own or manage for clients.
What happens when my license expires?
The plugin keeps working. You stop receiving updates. Any remaining pack credits stay on your account. Renew anytime to restore updates.
Can I upgrade my plan later?
Yes. Pro-rated upgrades — you only pay the difference between your current plan and the new one.
Is there a free version?
Yes. Field Forge Free is on WordPress.org with a generous feature set: unlimited field groups, 24 field types (including relationship, post object, taxonomy, user, oEmbed), the visual builder, location rules, the ACF compatibility layer, Local JSON sync, ACF field-value migration, and field values on the WordPress REST API. Paid plans unlock AI schema generation, TypeScript/GraphQL generation, the compound field types (repeater, flexible content, group, clone), options pages, and schema versioning.
Can I migrate from ACF, SCF, Meta Box, or CMB2?
Yes for ACF and SCF: Field Forge ships verified one-click importers for field groups and existing field values, and your theme code keeps working via the ACF compatibility layer. Meta Box, CMB2, Carbon Fields, Pods, and Toolset are beta/manual mapping targets until each source and extension set is tested. See the migration guide →
Is the free version compatible with ACF code?
Yes. The ACF compatibility layer is in the free version — theme code using get_field(), the_field(), have_rows(), etc. works with any Field Forge version.
Do I need to bring my own OpenAI API key?
No. AI features run through our managed backend. You get a 100-credit bonus at first activation and can buy top-up packs anytime — you never touch an API key.
Is there a refund policy?
14 days, no questions asked.
Do you offer bundle pricing?
Yes — Field Forge is one of twelve Forge tools. Take two or more and the whole set gets a discount that stays on every renewal: 15% for two tools, 25% for three, 35% for four or more. Build your set on avakode.com.
