Build a real site, from a sentence.

Getting started

xigzag turns a sentence into a complete, running website. There's nothing to install and no template to pick.

1. Open the Studio (or just type on the home page to see a real site build before you sign up).
2. Type what you want — e.g. “a city zoo with timed tickets” or “a vintage bakery in Lisbon.”
3. xigzag designs the pages, writes the copy, places photos, and wires the navigation, SEO and any commerce.
4. Refine it, then Publish. Your site is instantly live on a xigzag.com subdomain — connect your own domain when you're ready.

How it works

xigzag isn't a block library you assemble by hand. It's a system that designs and connects your site for you:

• Generative design — colour, type, spacing and motion are computed from your brief, so every site is balanced, contrast-safe and on-brand by construction.
• Everything stays connected — change your brand or a page and your menus, footer, search listings, legal pages and payment options all update themselves.
• The AI directs, never breaks — the AI selects the design and writes the copy; tested renderers assemble it. It can't produce a broken or ugly layout.

The Studio

The Studio (the editor) is where you shape your site. It has a slim icon rail on the left, which changes to match what your site does:

• Design — add, reorder and remove blocks; click any block in the canvas to edit it.
• Pages — the one list your nav, footer, breadcrumbs and sitemap derive from.
• Content — your collections (products, posts, anything) and their entries.
• Commerce — your payment provider and the one inbox for every order.
• Flows — build forms, ticket windows, seating and bookings.
• Theme — try a different look, switch between light and dark, or change your colours, and the whole site updates to match.
• Connections — see the live rules that keep everything in sync.

The top bar has a device toggle (desktop / tablet / mobile), a live preview, and Publish. Ask the AI editor in plain language — “make the hero punchier”, “add a pricing section” — and it makes a previewed, undoable change.

Pages & navigation

Your Pages list is the single source of truth for site structure. Add, rename, reorder or hide a page, and everything that points to it follows:

• The header nav, the footer links, breadcrumbs and the XML sitemap all derive from this one list.
• Mark a page as members-only and it's kept out of public navigation and the sitemap automatically.
• Each page is a stack of blocks; the same block can render any of your collections.

Content & collections

A collection is a content type — Products, Posts, Doctors, Courses — with typed fields. One block renders any collection.

• Define fields (text, number, price, image, date, select…) — including relations that link one entry to another (a Post → its Author, a Lesson → its Course).
• Edit entries through a panel built automatically from the collection's own fields.
• Visitors can filter your catalogue with facets, search it with full-text search, and (for location data) find what's near them.

Commerce & payments

Connect your own payment provider and start selling. We take 0% of your sales — your customers pay you directly, and you keep 100%.

• Sell products with size/colour variants and per-item stock; run scheduled sales and campaigns, coupons, and gift cards.
• Every order — a product sale, a ticket, a booking deposit, a form fee, a donation — lands in Commerce ▸ Orders, settled through one checkout, in any currency.
• Refund from the same inbox; revenue and stock update instantly. Tax and shipping can vary by destination.
• Stripe in production (test-safe by default); receipts and PDF invoices are generated automatically.

Bookings, tickets & flows

Real businesses need more than pages. In Flows you can build:

• Bookings — providers with weekly availability that turn into bookable slots; a soft hold reserves a slot the moment it's picked, so double-booking is impossible.
• Tickets — multiple ticket types with prices, per-order limits and capacity, with timed (dated) admission.
• Seating — assigned seats with tiers and a real seat map, for cinemas, theatres and venues.
• Stays — date-range booking for hotels and rentals, with an overbooking guard.
• Forms that branch — a field can appear only when an earlier answer matches, and field prices set a variable fee. Perfect for applications and intake.

Owner-authored workflows can run a state machine over an order — submit → review → approve — with an audit trail.

Members & accounts

Give your customers an account, and they get a portal that matches your business — with no setup from you.

• A store shows Orders, a clinic shows Bookings, a library shows Loans, a course site shows Courses — all derived automatically.
• Members can sign in by email, Google or Facebook. Turn on memberships for recurring tiers, rank-gated perks, and access that a refund automatically revokes.
• Protect your own account with two-factor authentication.

Design & themes

Your whole look is connected. Change one thing and the rest follows, so the site always feels considered.

• Pick a treatment and colour, slide the energy from calm to kinetic, switch light/dark — the palette, type and motion all follow.
• Explore looks shows a grid of complete candidate designs; tap one to apply it.
• Copy a design from one of your sites onto another, breed two looks into a child, or paste any URL to adopt its colour and vibe — your content stays untouched.

Languages & currency

• Any language — add languages with a visitor switcher and owner-managed translations; localized copy and currency are built in.
• Right-to-left is structural — build for Riyadh, Tehran, Tel Aviv or Chișinău without a plugin.
• Show prices in your shopper's currency, with checkout in that currency too.

Domains & publishing

• Publish any time — your site is instantly live on a xigzag.com subdomain. Your edits stay on a draft until you publish, so visitors never see a half-finished change.
• Search and buy a domain right from xigzag; it goes live with automatic SSL in about a minute. Or connect a domain you already own.
• Renew, set auto-renew, or even list a domain for sale on the marketplace — all from your dashboard.

SEO & discoverability

Every site is built to be found:

• A clean sitemap (including your product and post pages), an SEO health check, and editable titles, descriptions and image alt text.
• An RSS feed for content sites and an llms.txt so AI crawlers can read your site.
• Legal pages — privacy, terms, returns — generated from your site's own real details, ready to edit.

Integrations & API

Connect xigzag to the other tools you use — as simply or as deeply as you need:

• Embed a widget, wire a connector to an external API, receive a webhook, or run an automation (when an order is placed, send an email / SMS / WhatsApp).
• Reach your own data through a proper API to power your own tools.
• Connections to outside services are handled safely, and any keys you add are kept private.

Security & trust

Your site stays fast and private, your money goes straight to you, and nothing goes live by accident. Read the full Security & Trust page for what that means for you.

FAQ
