High removal-risk signals

63/100

Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.

  • Long abandoned. No update in 11+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.2.39, well behind 6.8.

Release cadence

No release in a year
from wp.org release tags

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. annual revenue

Est. acquisition value

N/A

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    I have successfully installed the app, but, I need a ID to input into the wordpress backend before it starts working. I have tried, over the course of many days, to try to create an account on speakol to get this id. Every time I fill out the registration form and hit submit, I get an error saying “array”. I have tried to contact speakol through their “contact us” form, but, every time I submit the form it navigates me to a blank screen and never submits. Since this has been a problem that has been lasting for days, I believe that this is very indicative of Speakol’s attention to this app and their associated support for it.
