@Jaqueline-Chinaglia Get one of these https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07B4D9KVX?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1
You will need the hub for it, too. But it would make it impossible to close your notebook completely, so maybe not the solution you are looking for.

@Greg-Larsen If you want to add hardware, a $5 smart plug (Aliexpress) would do the job of your $25 (+hub) suggestion. Set the BIOS to turn on when power is provided and you're done.
I have my three monitors on one smart plug so when I say Good Morning to Alexa, she fires them up. I don't really need WoL so pressing the button is fine with me.
