What self-hosted actually means
Your API keys
Google API, Anthropic API — connected directly from your server. F! Insights is the interface. No shared infrastructure, no rate limit pooling, no third-party holding your credentials.
Your database
Leads, scans, client records, audit history — stored in your WordPress database. You control the export, the backup, the retention. No vendor decides when your data disappears.
Cancel without losing anything
Stop paying and your data stays exactly where it is — on your server. No export window, no grace period, no CSV-if-you-remember-to-download-it.
White-label by default
The scanner runs on your domain. Reports come from your server. Audit outputs carry your brand. No F! Insights watermark — there’s nothing to toggle.
No shared infrastructure
Google API calls go from your server to Google. Anthropic calls go from your server to Anthropic. F! Insights has no copy of the data at any point in that chain.
GDPR-friendly architecture
Because client data never leaves your server, you control where it’s stored, who can access it, and how long it’s kept. No DPA with a third-party SaaS.

- Run operationsScan prospects, generate pitches, manage GBP, bill clients — all from your WordPress admin. All data stays on your server.
What this requires from you. Self-hosting means you manage the infrastructure. You need a WordPress hosting environment, your own Google and Anthropic API billing accounts, and basic comfort with WordPress plugin installation. F! Insights doesn't manage your server, handle your API costs, or provide hosting support. If you'd rather not manage API keys, a fully managed SaaS like BrightLocal is a more appropriate fit.
Own Your Stack.
$300/mo. One plugin, your server, your data — unlimited clients and locations.
What hosting do I need?
Any WordPress hosting that supports plugin installation — shared, VPS, or managed WordPress (WP Engine, Kinsta, etc.). The plugin has no unusual server requirements beyond standard PHP/MySQL.
Are there API costs on top of $300/mo?
Yes — Google Places API and Anthropic API usage is billed to your own accounts separately. Costs depend on your scan volume and AI usage. Most agencies run well within Google’s free tier for moderate scan volumes.
Does F! Insights ever access my data?
No. The plugin code runs on your server. API calls go directly from your server to Google and Anthropic. F! Insights (the company) has no connection to your installation once you download the plugin.
Can I run multiple agency installs?
One license covers one WordPress installation. If you run multiple WordPress sites, each needs its own license.
