Should I use an AI website builder or WordPress?

frascati is our product, so here is where each one fits. WordPress is open source, with a huge plugin and theme ecosystem, and runs hosted on WordPress.com or on your own hosting. W3Techs counts WordPress on more than 40 percent of websites.

Choose WordPress when you need a full CMS for many articles or several editors, specific plugins, for example for shops, courses or member areas, or full control over your hosting.

Choose frascati when you want a business website written from your description and changed in plain words in the chat, with no plugins, themes or updates to manage. The first version takes about two minutes.

Know the limits: frascati has no blog CMS (you add articles by asking in the chat), no user logins or member areas and no team accounts. Its shop suits a small range, without stock levels or product variants.

Cost: the WordPress software is free, but you pay for hosting and often for a theme, plugins or help. frascati costs from $12 a month after a free 3-day trial; your own domain needs Pro, from $29 a month.

Moving from WordPress: paste the address of your current site into frascati. It reads the text of that page and uses your real services and details.
