— Questions

Frequently asked, briefly answered.

  • Your custom website is generated within minutes. After submitting the form, our AI system processes your requirements and creates a fully optimized site, complete with enhanced features, professional design, and responsive layout. Once live, you can edit pages, add new content, and create blog posts directly through our AI-powered editor.

  • You can build all types of websites including portfolio sites, blogs, documentation, business websites, landing pages, e-commerce storefronts, SaaS marketing sites, and commercial projects.

  • GitPage ships with purpose-built templates for four high-converting niches, each available as a full Local Site or a VSL (Video Sales Letter) landing page, in both light and dark themes:

    • Home Services — plumbers, HVAC, electricians, roofers
    • Real Estate Agents — buyers, sellers, investors, boutique luxury
    • Gyms & Fitness — studios, personal trainers, boutique gyms
    • Agency / Consulting — brand, digital and growth studios

    Each template comes pre-loaded with niche-appropriate copy, service blocks, imagery and conversion sections, so you start from a polished, on-brand foundation rather than a blank page.

  • Yes — and it's incredibly fast. Using the GitPage MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, you can connect GitPage directly to an AI assistant like Claude and transform any base template into the exact website you need, just by describing it in plain English.

    Start from any of the built-in niches and ask the assistant to reshape it — change the industry, restructure sections, rewrite the copy, swap imagery, add pages, or pivot a Home Services site into a restaurant, SaaS, portfolio or e-commerce layout. The MCP reads and edits your site files directly, so a base template becomes a fully customised, production-ready website in a matter of minutes.

    This means the four starter categories are really just launch points — the MCP lets you go from template to virtually any required website super quickly.

  • A few options depending on what your client needs:

    • View the live site — share the public URL with your client. Anyone can view it, no account needed.
    • Access the code — the site lives in a GitLab repository under your account. You can add your client as a collaborator on that repo so they can download or manage the code directly.
    • Hand off the project — transfer the repository to the client's own GitLab account. They then own the repo and site outright.
    • Invite them as a collaborator — your client signs in with their email and can edit and publish the site directly through the AI editor, using your AI credits and GitLab token. See the next FAQ for details.
    • Client-managed edits elsewhere — if you'd rather hand off editing entirely, deploy the repo to Netlify or a CMS-backed host where non-technical clients can update content.

  • Yes! Open Share project on any site and enter their email. They'll get an invite to sign in (or create a free GitPage account using that email), and the site appears under Shared with Me on their dashboard.

    What collaborators can do:

    • Open the AI editor, make changes, and publish — using your AI credits and GitLab token, so they don't need their own configuration.
    • Access is scoped per-project — invites don't bleed across your other sites.

    What only the owner can do:

    • Delete, duplicate, rename, hide, change tags, or invite further collaborators.

    Revoke access anytime — per-site from the Share modal, or remove a person from every shared project at once with Revoke all on your dashboard.

  • Yes! You own the complete source code in your GitLab repository. If you need to build a commercial or e-commerce site, you can easily deploy your repository to commercial hosting services like Netlify, Vercel, AWS, or any other platform. Simply connect your repository to these services—they all support direct Git integration. This gives you the flexibility to use GitLab Pages for personal projects while migrating commercial sites to appropriate hosting platforms.

  • Yes! Simply connect your GitLab repository to Netlify, Vercel, or any other hosting platform. Any changes made through gitpage.site are automatically committed to your repository, which triggers an auto-publish on these platforms. This gives you the flexibility to use your preferred hosting provider while still benefiting from our AI-powered site generation and editing features.

  • No technical knowledge required! Our system handles everything. Fill out a form with your content, and gitpage.site generates a production-ready website. After generation, use our AI-powered editor to make changes by simply describing what you want in plain English—no coding needed.

  • Absolutely! Use our built-in AI editor to make changes instantly. Simply describe what you want to change in plain English, and the AI will update your site. You can edit existing pages, add new pages, create blog posts with automatic formatting, and sync your blog listing—all without touching code. Changes are automatically deployed to GitLab Pages within minutes.

  • The AI editor lets you:

    • Edit any existing page by describing your changes
    • Add new pages with custom titles and meta descriptions
    • Create blog posts (500-2000 words) with images and FAQs
    • Automatically sync your blog listing page
    • Preview changes in real-time before they go live

    All changes are committed to GitLab and deployed automatically—no manual coding required.

  • One-time setup takes just a couple of minutes. You'll need to connect your GitLab account and add an OpenRouter API key. Full instructions are provided in the dashboard documentation menu when logged in.

  • Yes! Your website is hosted on GitLab Pages, giving you full access to all the HTML code. You own the repository completely. You can make manual modifications through GitLab, download the code, or continue using our AI editor—the choice is yours.

  • Absolutely! You own the code completely. Download it from your GitLab repository and host it on any server or hosting service you prefer. The code is clean, well-documented, and fully portable.

  • Your site appears in your "My Sites" dashboard with a direct link once live. From there, you can open the AI editor to make changes, view your repository, or visit your live site. The editor provides a complete workspace for managing all your pages and blog content.

  • Yes, you need an OpenRouter API key for both generating websites and using the AI editor. Full setup instructions are provided in the dashboard—it takes only a minute to configure and enables all AI features.

  • You can generate 15-20 complete sites for $5 via OpenRouter. Subsequent edits through the AI editor are circa at $0.005-$0.20 per edit depending on complexity. This means you can generate and maintain multiple professional websites at a fraction of traditional development costs.
