EnglishWhat piszek.com Is and Who Artur Piszek Is
Updated
piszek.com is the personal website of Artur Piszek, an engineer and psychologist who works at WordPress.com. He uses the site to publish essays and to showcase projects he is building, with writing centered on “connections, useful things, and living deliberately.” You can follow updates by email through the subscribe form on the site.
Who Artur Piszek says he is
The site’s introduction is written in the first person. In it, Piszek describes himself as an “Engineer · Psychologist · Explorer.” He says he works at WordPress.com, “trying to weave the future of open web in the age of AI.” He cites 1900s gentlemen scientists and Art Nouveau aesthetics as inspirations, lives in Warsaw, Poland, and has worked remotely for 12 years. He also mentions being a father of two, a husband, and an RV owner.
These are self-descriptions from the site, not independently verified credentials. Treat them as the author’s framing of his own background.
What you’ll find on the site
The homepage is organized into three main areas:
- Recent writing — essays and posts, each with a short summary and a “Read →” link.
- Things I’m building and exploring — project pages with an “Explore →” link for each.
- A subscribe form — an email field and a Subscribe button under the line “Follow along.”
Recent writing topics
The posts listed on the homepage give a clear picture of the site’s range:
| Post | What it covers |
|---|---|
| 1password for free range agents | A setup for using 1Password with AI agents, framed as an alternative to storing passwords in a plain file |
| WordPress AI strategy – Artur’s Version | His vision for developing AI features in WordPress |
| WP Knowledge: Beyond AI | The WordPress knowledge API and how it can turn a WordPress site into a “Personal Cloud” |
| WordPress as Obsidian Sync | Writing posts in Obsidian and pushing plain Markdown files to a WordPress database via the PushMD plugin |
| Book: Be Useful by Arnold Schwarzenegger | A note on Schwarzenegger’s seven tools for life and his autobiography |
The through-line is practical, hands-on writing about WordPress, AI tooling, and personal workflows, mixed with occasional book notes.
Projects featured on the site
- WP Knowledge — described as “one private, permissioned, revisioned place for guidelines, memories, notes, and the tools that use them” within WordPress.
- Oh My Lake! — a WordPress-native atlas of 109,541 European lakes, combining open data with local evidence, personal reviews, and photography.
- DoomToll — an iPhone-first “digital tollbooth” that turns opening social media from an automatic reflex into a conscious choice.
Who the site is for
piszek.com is most useful if you:
- work with WordPress and want to read about AI features and knowledge APIs from someone who works at WordPress.com;
- are interested in personal knowledge management and writing workflows, such as syncing Obsidian with WordPress;
- want to follow an individual builder’s essays rather than a news publication.
It is a personal blog, not a product documentation site or a news outlet. Posts reflect one person’s views and experiments, so verify technical steps against current official documentation before adopting them.
How to follow along
The homepage offers an email subscription: enter your address in the “Your email address” field and select Subscribe. The site also links to a dedicated subscribe page at piszek.com/subscribe/ labeled “Follow.” The site does not state how often emails are sent or what they contain beyond updates on new writing, so expect occasional posts rather than a fixed schedule.
If you prefer not to subscribe, the “View all →” link next to “My recent writing” leads to the full archive, and each project has its own page reachable from the homepage.
