Hey HN, I’m Todd. I previously founded Prerender.io where I scaled it to $2.5M ARR, serving billions of web pages to Google every month, before a successful exit.

I’ve been working on a new side project for a while. I wanted to take a different approach to building websites with AI.

Existing AI website builders either give the AI too much freedom, which ends up generating a poorly designed website or they don’t give the AI enough freedom and become too rigid. I wanted a way to create more visually appealing websites using AI to select the best images from Getty images, write the best copy, and still give people the freedom to iterate and edit on the site using AI as well.

I’d love for you to give it a try and give any feedback. My goal is to help anyone create a website for their business by just asking AI to make changes so they don’t have to know how to write copy, make an appealing design, or make more technical changes.

Nice tool. Big fan of prerender, we used it at one of my previous companies.

Question, where do you get the images from?

  • thoopOP 3 years ago

    Thank you!

    We use images from istock.com (Getty Images) for the paid plans and unsplash.com for the free plan.

    We ask gpt-4 for a good keyword that we can search on the istock.com API based on the business description in order to get images that fit the website out of the box.

Did you actually make the landing site using your own tool?

  • thoopOP 3 years ago

    Yeah! We made our own landing site using our own tool. That was pretty fun to do.

    Asking the AI to edit things on the page is really fun. It's crazy what changes it can make with such little context.

    For example the form where you input your business name and description. We just gave the AI a prompt of "turn this section into a form that posts to https://... with a business name and description" and it gave us exactly that, first try.
