Elementor Pro vs Divi vs Bricks: an honest comparison for Pakistani builders

All three build WordPress sites visually. They differ in price, in how they think, and in who you will find to help you at 2am before a client deadline.

Updated 20 October 2026 · Written by AI Web Tools

Short answer

Elementor Pro, Divi and Bricks all build WordPress sites visually, but they suit different people. Elementor Pro has the largest ecosystem and the gentlest learning curve, and costs $60 a year for one site from Elementor or ₨799 a year through AI Web Tools. Divi is a theme plus builder at $89 a year for unlimited sites, good value if you run many sites and like its style. Bricks is a lean, developer-oriented builder at $79 a year for one site, with cleaner code output but a steeper start. AI Web Tools sells Elementor Pro only.

Prices from each builder's own pricing page as listed on our home page, checked October 2026, converted at ₨280 per dollar. They change; check before you buy.

Elementor Pro

Elementor is a plugin, so it works with any theme and leaves your content as normal WordPress pages. It has the biggest community of any builder, which in Pakistan means tutorials in Urdu, freelancers who already know it, and clients who ask for it by name. Pro adds the Theme Builder, Forms, Popups, WooCommerce Builder and Loop Grid. The usual criticism is page weight, which is real if you stack add-ons and animations and manageable if you keep things simple. The other criticism is the dollar price, which is the problem AI Web Tools exists to solve.

Divi

Divi is a theme and a builder in one, from Elegant Themes. One license covers unlimited websites, which makes it good value for someone running many small sites, and a lifetime option is also sold. The trade-off is lock-in: your layouts live inside the Divi theme, and moving away later means rebuilding. Divi has a large community abroad and a smaller one in Pakistan.

Bricks

Bricks is also a theme with a builder, aimed at people who think in CSS classes and care about the HTML their site outputs. It is generally regarded as lighter than Elementor and is popular with developers who build their own component libraries. There is no free version, the community is smaller, and handing a Bricks site to a client who wants to edit it themselves is harder than with Elementor.

What this means for a freelancer in Pakistan

  • If clients ask for Elementor, and most do, use Elementor. Hand-over is easier and you can find help in Urdu.
  • If you run many sites of your own and want one license, Divi's unlimited plan is worth a look.
  • If you are a developer who wants clean markup and is willing to learn, Bricks rewards the effort.
  • None of them migrates to the others automatically. Pick before the project, not after.

AI Web Tools activates Elementor Pro only. We do not sell Divi or Bricks and have no opinion on where to buy them beyond their own websites.

Questions people ask

Still unsure? Message us on WhatsApp.

Is Elementor slower than Bricks?

On a like-for-like page Bricks usually outputs less code. In practice, image sizes, hosting and the number of plugins decide speed far more than the builder does.

Which builder do clients in Pakistan ask for?

In our experience, Elementor by a wide margin, because it is what most local freelancers and tutorials use.

Does AI Web Tools sell Divi or Bricks?

No. We activate Elementor Pro only.

Can I use Elementor's free plugin with the Divi theme?

You can install both, but it is a poor idea: two builders, two sets of styles, and a confusing editing experience. Pick one.
