AI Website Builder

Describe your business, get a responsive website for 5 credits. Edit it free, roll back to any version, and publish to Vercel. AI change requests cost 3 credits.

The website builder at /marketing/website turns a written brief into a complete, responsive site you can edit by hand and ship to the web. The pitch on the empty screen is exactly what it does: Build a website with Clyentra — "Describe your business and we'll design a complete, responsive site you can refine and publish."

What costs credits, and what does not

The cheapest edit is the one you make yourself: An AI change request costs 3 credits. Retyping a headline in the section panel, or clicking it directly in the preview with Edit on page, costs nothing. Save the AI for structural work — "add a pricing section with three tiers" — and do the copy tweaks by hand.

Write the brief

The prompt box carries its own example: "e.g. A landing page for my organic skincare brand — hero, benefits, testimonials, pricing and a contact form." Name the business, name the sections you want, and say who it is for. Three options sit under the box:

• Reference images — attach up to 4 with the paperclip. Product shots, a competitor's layout, a mood board.
• Brand toggle — uses your brand name, logo and colours rather than inventing a look.
• Enhance to PRD — 1 credit. It expands your one-liner into a full product requirements document before generating. While it runs, the box shows Writing PRD…, and a Prompt enhanced chip with an Undo link appears after.

Then press Generate (5 credits). A build animation walks through understanding the brief, choosing a palette and fonts, designing the layout, writing the copy and composing sections. When it lands, Website generated.

The sections it builds from

Clyentra assembles the page from a fixed vocabulary of section types. Naming these in your brief is the most reliable way to get the page you want:

• hero · features · pricing · testimonials
• gallery · faq · call to action · stats
• logos · contact · about · custom HTML

Editing — all of it free

The left rail is a Page structure panel: Header, then every section in order, then Footer. It is the whole editing surface.

Edit on page

The Edit on page toggle sits above the preview: *Toggle on-page editing — then click any text in the preview to edit it.* Turn it on and the button starts pulsing Editing — click text to edit, with a hint at the bottom of the preview: Hover a section to select · click any text to edit it. Click a headline in the rendered page and type over it. Changes save as you go, and it costs nothing.

Theme and device previews

The Theme button opens a drawer with six colour pickers (Primary, Accent, Background, Surface, Text, Muted), a heading font, a body font, a corner radius, and a dark-mode switch. Apply theme writes it to the site. The preview itself can be checked at three widths: Desktop, iPhone and Android.

Versions and rollback

The Versions button opens Version history. Every entry is a numbered v{n} with a short note and a Restore button. Restoring is free and instant — the toast confirms Restored v3.

Experiment freely: Because rollback is free and unlimited, an AI change request that ruins the page costs you 3 credits and nothing else. Try the bold version. If it is worse, Versions → Restore puts you back.

Publishing goes to Vercel

Publishing is free, but it needs somewhere to publish to. Clyentra ships your site to Vercel, and you connect Vercel once under Settings → Integrations. The whole integration is a single field — a Vercel Token — which you generate in your own Vercel account. Full walkthrough in integrations.

1. Connect Vercel first. Settings → Integrations → Vercel. Paste your Vercel Token and save. Do this before you finish the site, not after.
2. Press Publish. The rocket button in the header. Clyentra builds and deploys the site to your Vercel account.
3. Confirm it is live. The toast reads Published to Vercel. and the deployed URL opens in a new tab.
4. Come back to it any time. A Live button now sits in the header next to Publish — one click to the deployed site. Publish again after any change to push an update.

Custom domains are a storefront feature, not a website-builder one: The website builder publishes to Vercel and gives you the deployed URL. If you need a custom domain on a sales page, that lives with hosted-storefronts.

Your websites

Every site you have built is listed on the landing screen with its section count and status, and a green dot on the ones that are published. Click one to reopen it exactly as you left it. The credit balance sits in the header of every screen in the builder so you always know what a change request will leave you with.

A worked run

• Brief for a Berlin studio's landing page, enhanced to a PRD — 1 credit.
• Generate the site — 5 credits.
• Two AI change requests: swap the hero image, add a three-tier pricing section — 6 credits.
• Rewrite four headlines by hand with Edit on page, reorder two sections, apply a darker theme — free.
• Publish to Vercel — free.
• Total: 12 credits, or $1.20.

Permissions

The builder needs the AI Tools permission at Editor level to generate or change anything, plus an active subscription. Saving the Vercel token needs the Settings permission at Editor level — a different permission, often a different person. See roles-and-permissions.
