Works on its own. Works even better with what you have.

Formaut gives you
everything you need.
Full stop.

Every Formaut plan includes enough AI to build a complete, professional website and keep it running — no other subscriptions required. You get a fully operating site, a working admin panel, and an agent that remembers your business. That's the whole product.

If you already use Claude or ChatGPT for your business — great. You can use them to workshop ideas, draft copy, and figure out exactly what you want before you bring it to Formaut. That keeps your Formaut AI focused on building, which means faster results and more headroom for bigger projects.

Think of it like having a contractor. You can show up with rough ideas and they'll figure it out — or you can show up with a clear brief and they'll work faster. Either way, the house gets built.

Optional — if you already use Claude or ChatGPT
Workshop your ideas. Draft your copy. Figure out exactly what you want your site to say and do. Then bring that brief to Formaut — it goes straight to building, not discovery.
Formaut — always included
Takes your brief — or figures it out with you from scratch. Builds the site. Deploys it live. Maintains it over time. Hands you the keys. Complete on its own.
📤
Export your context anytime
Download your Formaut history — business details, preferences, site decisions — as a formatted prompt you can paste into any AI tool to continue working. Your knowledge stays portable, always.
🔭
On the roadmap — Claude as your Formaut interface
Anthropic is building toward letting Claude.ai connect directly to external tools and services. When that opens up for consumer subscriptions, Formaut will be ready — meaning you'll be able to use the Claude app on your phone or desktop to build and maintain your site directly through your existing subscription. Your phone becomes the interface. Formaut's infrastructure does the building. We'll ship it the moment it's possible.
Why it's different

You don't rent your site.
You own it.

⚙️
Your GitHub
Your site's code lives in your own GitHub repository. Every file, every change, every deploy — yours. Take it to any developer, any host, any time.
🌐
Your Cloudflare
Hosting, DNS, SSL, CDN — all under your own Cloudflare account. No bandwidth limits. No surprise bills. No middleman between you and your site.
🗄️
Your Database
Your content, your customer data, your site history — stored in your own Supabase account. Cancel Formaut and your data stays exactly where it is.
💳
Your Stripe
Want to take payments? Connect your own Stripe account. Money goes directly to your bank. We never touch it, hold it, or take a cut of your sales.
👕
Your Printify
Selling merch? Connect your Printify account and Formaut wires up a full store. Your products, your customers, your fulfillment relationship.
🔑
Walk Away Anytime
Cancel Formaut and your site keeps running. Forever. On your accounts, with your credentials. We're the contractor who builds in your house — not the landlord.
🏠

Your domain is yours — and that's the point.

Formaut doesn't include a domain because it shouldn't be ours to give you. For about $10 a year you register your own address on the internet — in your name, paid by you, controlled entirely by you. We'll walk you through getting one in minutes. That $10 is the most important business investment you'll make this year. It's the difference between renting a storefront and owning the building.

Built into every site

Your site comes with
its own control panel.
No subscription required.

Every site Formaut builds includes a password-protected admin panel — yours to keep, forever, even after you cancel. Update your hours, swap your photos, change your menu, post a special. No code. No developer. No monthly fee.

This wasn't an afterthought. It's the whole point. Formaut is designed so that the day you stop paying us, you don't lose the ability to run your own business online. You just lose access to the AI. Everything else stays exactly as it is.

💡 Most website platforms charge you every month partly because they know you can't leave — your content is locked inside their system. Formaut is built the opposite way. We want you to stay because the product is worth it, not because you're trapped.

The process

From conversation
to live site.

Squarespace / Wix
4–8 hours
You do all the work. Template looks like a template. Site belongs to them.
Hiring a developer
Weeks
Expensive. Slow. You depend on them for every change.
Formaut
One conversation.
Site is live. Everything is yours. Faster than any alternative — and when it's done, you own it.
1
Connect your accounts
Three free accounts — GitHub, Cloudflare, Supabase. We walk you through each one. Takes about ten minutes total. Everything goes into your name, not ours.
2
Tell Formaut about your business
Have a conversation. Your name, what you do, where you are, how people should reach you. Formaut asks what it needs and starts building immediately.
3
Your site goes live
Deployed to your domain, running on your accounts, fully yours. Come back whenever something needs updating. Formaut remembers your business and picks up where you left off.
Getting the most out of it

Work with Formaut
like a specialist,
not a search engine.

The clients who get the best results come in with a specific task. Formaut is your web team — use it for web work.

Come with a clear task
"Add a booking form to my contact page." "Change my hours for the holidays." "I want to add a specials section." Specific requests get specific results — fast.
🔍
Use Google or ChatGPT for general questions
Questions about your industry, pricing strategy, or how Facebook ads work aren't what Formaut is for. Save your AI time for the work only Formaut can do: building and maintaining your actual site.
💬
Shorter conversations, better results
One task per conversation works better than trying to do everything at once. Formaut remembers your business between sessions, so you can always pick up exactly where you left off.
📋
The agent will offer you a shortcut
Early in your first conversation, Formaut will offer to send you a quick intake form. Business name, location, phone, pages you need — simple stuff that doesn't require a conversation to figure out. Fill it in and Formaut goes straight to building. Totally optional — you can always just keep talking.
Simple pricing

One price.
Everything included.

Unlimited sites. All integrations. Cancel anytime and keep everything you built.

Standard
$50
per month · cancel anytime

  • Built for real business use — handles everything an active site needs

Get started
Transparent overflow. For larger projects — a full redesign, adding a store, a heavy build month — Formaut will let you know and give you the option to continue for a small additional cost, close to what it costs us. No automatic charges. No surprises. It feels like hiring extra help for the day, not hitting a wall.
What staying looks like

Cancel anytime and keep everything.
Stay and get something more.

When you cancel Formaut you walk away with your site, your admin panel, and everything in your accounts. That's a genuinely good deal and we mean it. But here's what you walk away from.

Month 1
Your site is built and live.
One conversation. Deployed to your domain. Admin panel working. Everything in your accounts. You could cancel today and come out ahead of what a developer would have charged.
Month 2–3
Your agent already knows your business.
Formaut has your history, your preferences, your site decisions. Updates take minutes instead of a full conversation. The agent catches a Cloudflare configuration that needed updating — before it became a problem. Suggests a booking form based on how visitors are using your contact page.
Month 4–6
Security monitoring runs quietly in the background.
Formaut watches your connected accounts — Cloudflare, Supabase, Stripe — for anomalies, expired configs, anything that could expose your data or your customers'. Problems surfaced before you know they exist. You run your business. The agent watches the infrastructure.
Month 6–12
Analytics and suggestions that actually make sense.
Formaut pulls data from your connected APIs — traffic, behavior, conversion — and interprets it with full knowledge of your stack. Not generic advice. Specific suggestions from an agent that knows your GitHub, your Supabase, your Stripe history, your site's entire evolution. A new integration ships. Your agent adds it and explains what it does.
Year 2+
The agent gets better as Claude gets better.
Every Claude improvement flows into Formaut automatically. The agent that built your site in year one is meaningfully smarter in year two. New API integrations become available as Formaut grows — added to your site without you having to ask. Your web presence compounds quietly while you run your business.
If you cancel after month 1
✓ Your site keeps running forever
✓ Admin panel stays working
✓ All your accounts intact
✓ Code in your GitHub
✗ No security monitoring
✗ No proactive problem detection
✗ No analytics interpretation
✗ No new integrations
✗ No agent that knows your history
✗ No Claude improvements flowing in
If you stay
✓ Everything above
✓ 24/7 security monitoring
✓ Problems caught before you notice
✓ Analytics from your own data
✓ Suggestions specific to your stack
✓ New integrations as they ship
✓ Agent that knows your full history
✓ Smarter every time Claude improves
✓ Optional — only when you need it
💡

The honest comparison

What's worse — paying $16 or $30 a month forever for a platform that owns your site and locks you out the moment you stop paying? Or paying $50 once to build something completely yours, then choosing month by month whether the agent watching over it is worth it to you? Most months it will be. Some months it won't. Either way you own the site.

Why this exists

Built by someone who
needed it and couldn't
find it anywhere.

I built Formaut because I was building a website and the whole time I kept thinking: there has to be a better way. Developers are expensive and slow. Platforms lock you in. Templates look like templates. And none of them give you anything you actually own when you're done paying.

But the deeper frustration was different. I had AI. I could talk through ideas, get code, get copy, get strategy. What I couldn't get was an agent that stayed in the room until the thing was actually done. One that was connected to my real tools — my hosting, my database, my domain — and could do the wiring, not just hand me instructions and wish me luck.

I didn't just want help thinking. I wanted help doing.

And underneath all of it was something that bothered me more the longer I thought about it: every subscription I was paying for — the website platform, the booking tool, the payment processor — was another landlord. Another company that owned a piece of my online presence and could change the terms, raise the price, or lock me out whenever they felt like it.

Formaut is the answer to all three of those frustrations. An agent connected to infrastructure you own. One that finishes the job instead of handing you instructions. One that costs you $50 to build something worth hundreds — and then gets out of the way unless you need it.

I built this because it's a tool I wished existed. Every design decision — the accounts in your name, the site that keeps running when you cancel, the admin panel that's yours forever — comes from that same place. I wanted independence from platforms that profit from your dependency. Formaut is what that looks like.

Honest answers

The questions
worth asking.

What happens if I cancel?
Your site keeps running. Forever. It's on your Cloudflare account, your GitHub repo, your Supabase database. We're not in the loop. You just stop paying us and everything continues exactly as it was.
Do I need to know anything about websites?
Nothing. If you can describe your business in plain English, Formaut can build the site. The technical setup takes about ten minutes and we walk you through every step with screenshots.
Why do I need to buy a domain separately?
Because it should belong to you, not us. About $10 a year through Cloudflare Registrar gets you an address on the internet that's registered in your name. We help you get it and connect it in minutes. That $10 is one of the best business investments you'll make.
What if I come back after canceling?
Reconnect your accounts and Formaut picks up exactly where you left off. Your conversation history, site preferences, and business context are stored in your own Supabase — they never leave.
What is Claude and why does it power Formaut?
Claude is an AI built by Anthropic — the same company behind some of the most capable AI systems in the world. Formaut uses Claude because it's exceptional at understanding plain language requests and translating them into working, deployed websites. We're transparent about this because we think you should know what's powering your tools.
Can Formaut build anything?
Most things a small business needs — yes. There are some complex custom features that go beyond what Formaut handles automatically. When that happens, we tell you clearly and log it as a feature request. We never pretend we can do something we can't.
Is my data safe?
Your data lives in your own Supabase account — not ours. We access it to help build and maintain your site, but we don't own it, can't sell it, and it doesn't disappear if something happens to us.
I already pay for Claude or ChatGPT. Is Formaut redundant?
Not at all — and Formaut is complete on its own without them. Every plan gives you everything needed for a fully operating website. If you already use other AI tools, you can use them to workshop ideas before bringing them to Formaut — that keeps your AI focused on building and can yield richer results. But Formaut alone is never lacking.
Can I export my data to use with another AI tool?
Yes. You can download your Formaut context — business details, site decisions, preferences, conversation history — as a formatted file you can paste into Claude, ChatGPT, or any other AI. Your knowledge is portable. We never lock it in.
Will I be able to use my Claude subscription with Formaut?
That's exactly where we're headed. Anthropic is building toward letting Claude.ai connect directly to external tools and services. When that opens up, you'll be able to use the Claude app on your phone or desktop to build and maintain your site through Formaut — your existing subscription as the interface, Formaut's infrastructure doing the building. We'll ship it the moment it's available.
What's the intake form the agent offers?
Early in your first conversation, Formaut will offer to send you a short form — business name, location, phone, pages you need. It's the information that doesn't really need a conversation to figure out. Fill it in and Formaut goes straight to building. Ignore it and just keep talking — either way your site gets built.
How long does it take to get my site live?
Most sites go live in a single conversation — usually under an hour. The account setup takes about ten minutes the first time. After that, one conversation with Formaut and your site is deployed to your domain. Faster than any alternative, and when it's done, you own it outright.
