GeneratePress
EDGE22 Studios Ltd. · Alberta
- Canadian owned
- Canadian hosting not stated
GeneratePress is a WordPress theme made by EDGE22 Studios Ltd., a corporation registered in Alberta. Paired with GenerateBlocks, the same team's block plugin, it builds full page layouts inside the native WordPress block editor instead of a separate page-builder layer. Both have free versions; GeneratePress One bundles the premium theme modules, GenerateBlocks Pro and GenerateCloud.
What they offer
GeneratePress theme
A lightweight WordPress theme, with GP Premium adding a theme builder, layout controls and starter sites.
GenerateBlocks
Container, text, media, grid and query-loop blocks for building layouts in the native block editor.
GenerateBlocks Pro
Design patterns, global styles and advanced block options on top of the free plugin.
GenerateCloud
Private pattern libraries shared across your own and your clients' sites.
What it replaces
Where the fit is imperfect, we say so. A substitution that quietly drops a capability you depend on isn’t a saving.
Elementor Pro
Elementor
Both build custom WordPress layouts without hand-written templates. Elementor runs its own visual editor on top of WordPress; GeneratePress and GenerateBlocks work inside the native block editor, which means lighter markup but a rebuild rather than an import when you switch.

Elegant Themes
Divi is a theme and builder in one, like GeneratePress with GenerateBlocks. Divi stores layouts in its own shortcode format, so existing pages have to be rebuilt as blocks; nothing converts automatically.

Beaver Builder
Comparable job: a theme plus a layout builder for agencies managing many client sites. Beaver Builder uses a front-end drag-and-drop editor; GenerateBlocks is block-editor native, so the editing workflow is different.
