Building and editing pages with the AI builder
From a sentence to a live address in about a minute.
The AI builder lives in your dashboard under AI builder. You describe a page, it writes one, you look at it, and when you are happy you publish it. The page is a normal Droply site: your own address on droply.id (or a custom domain), HTTPS, and the same version history as anything you upload.
Two ways to use it
- New page. Start from a description. Who the page is for, what it should say, and how it should feel is enough. You can refine it with follow-up messages before you publish.
- Edit a live site. Open one of your published sites and tell the builder what to change. It reads the live page, rewrites it with your change, and shows you the result. Nothing changes online until you press Publish changes, and the previous version stays in the site's history so you can roll back.
How a page starts
One box: say who the page is for and what it should say, attach your logo and photos if you have them, and pick a palette, a feel and a language if you want to. The builder works out what kind of page it is (a business, a portfolio, an event, a menu, a resume) from your words. If that kind needs a fact it does not have, such as a wedding's date and venue or a shop's WhatsApp number, it asks once, in a short card, before building. Answering is free and every question can be skipped.
What you told it is remembered. Every later change still knows the name, the colors, the language and which pictures exist, so a refinement never drifts into a generic page. The style row in the conversation changes the look at any time.
Changes are precise
When you ask for a change, the builder edits only what you asked for and leaves the rest of the page exactly as it was, the way an editor changes a line rather than retyping the document. Each change is one credit, and the reply says what changed.
Point at what you mean. Click any piece of text in the preview and it is attached to your next message, so "shorter and stronger" lands on that headline and nowhere else. Pointing is also cheaper for us to run than describing, which is why it is the same one credit however long your page is.
Moving around your page
The preview switches between Select, where clicking something changes it, and Browse, where the page's own links work: an anchor scrolls, and a link to another page of your project opens it in the preview. Links that leave your site, and forms, start working once the page is published.
The code, if you want it
The Code tab shows your project as files: the page, its stylesheet, the pictures, and everything an existing site already had. Anyone can read it. On plans that include the in-app editor you can also change a file by hand and save it, which costs no credit and lands at once. Saving changes your draft; nothing is live until you publish.
Your pictures
The builder never generates or fetches photos. Upload a logo and up to 6 pictures (2 MB each) and it lays them out; a caption on each tells it where the picture belongs. Pictures are resized and converted for the web, count against your storage quota, and ship inside the published site. Upload none and it draws clean placeholders in your palette that you can swap later. If a logo is uploaded, the brief offers a palette read from it.
Editing an existing site keeps every file the site already has, so its pictures survive the new version.
What it makes
One complete static page: HTML with the styling built in, and small touches of plain JavaScript when a page needs them (a menu that opens, a section that expands). No frameworks, no build step, no server code, no databases. That is exactly what Droply hosts, so what you see in the preview is what visitors get.
Forms need a service of your own to receive submissions, the same as any static site; the brief can link the page to one you already have.
What it costs
Every plan includes a number of AI credits. A credit is one message that produces a page: the first draft, and each revision after it.
- Free: not included. The builder starts on Starter.
- Starter: 10 credits a month, refilled on your billing day.
- Pro: 100 credits a month, refilled on your billing day.
- Business: 300 credits a month, refilled on your billing day.
- Enterprise: 800 credits a month, refilled on your billing day.
You are only charged a credit when a page actually comes back. A request the builder declines, or a failure on our side, costs nothing. Unused monthly credits do not carry over.
Need more in a busy month? Prepaid packs are available from the AI builder page (50 for $5, 200 for $15). Packs are used after your included credits and are good for 12 months.
Limits worth knowing
- One page is built at a time per account, and it usually takes one to three minutes.
- Each message is capped in length, and very large pages cannot be edited with the builder. If you hit that, edit the page with the file editor instead.
What it will not make
The builder refuses pages that imitate another company's sign-in or payment screens, or that collect passwords and card numbers. Published pages also go through the same malware and content checks as every upload. Repeated refusals pause the builder for an hour.
Your prompts and your pages
Your messages and, for edits, the current page are sent to the model provider to write the reply, with training on your data switched off. Drafts are private to your account until you publish them. Delete a draft and its conversation goes with it.
