Krikkit – AI Website Builder SaaS Platform for Prompt-Based Site Generation

Krikkit is a self-hosted AI website builder you run as your own SaaS. Your users describe the site they want, watch it take shape in a live workspace, and publish the result on your domain — while you decide the plans, the credits, and the prices. One purchase, your brand, your business.

No Build Server. No VPS. Runs on the Cheapest Hosting.

Here is what makes Krikkit different: the entire build engine runs inside the visitor’s browser. Package installs, the dev server, the live preview and the production build all happen client-side. Your server only serves the Laravel app and stores project files.

• No Node.js process on your server — nothing to keep alive, nothing to crash at 3 AM.
• No VPS requirement — a basic shared hosting plan with cPanel is genuinely enough.
• No build queue eating your CPU — ten users building at once costs your server almost nothing, because each build runs on their machine, not yours.
• Scales with your users, not your bill — more customers does not mean a bigger server.

If your hosting can run Laravel, it can run Krikkit.

Simple Requirements

• PHP 8.3+ (8.4 supported)
• MySQL 8+ or MariaDB 10.6+
• Standard PHP extensions — the guided installer checks every one for you
• Shared hosting or cPanel is fine — no root access, no Docker, no Node.js on the server
• Optional: a wildcard subdomain if you want one-click subdomain publishing for your users

The Lab — a Real Builder, Not a Chat Window

• Chat on one side, a working project on the other — file tree, code editor, console and live preview in a single workspace.
• The AI edits real files — users can open any file, inspect the code, and take over manually whenever they want.
• Instant feedback — every change lands in the live preview without leaving the page.
• Import to start faster — bring an existing project in from GitHub or a public URL and continue with AI.

From Prompt to Published

• One-click subdomain publishing — finished sites go live on name.yourdomain.com instantly.
• Custom domains — users can point their own domain at their published site.
• Served by your own app — published sites are delivered by the same Laravel installation; no third-party hosting involved.

Bring Your Own AI

• Connect Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, xAI Grok, Groq, Mistral, Google Gemini or ZhipuAI — plug the keys into the dashboard and switch providers anytime.
• You control the cost — set credit prices and per-plan limits so AI usage is always profitable.
• Stock photos included — Unsplash and Pixabay integrations let the AI place real imagery into projects.
• Supabase link — users can connect their own datastore for projects that need a backend.

Monetization Built In

• Stripe and PayPal subscriptions with webhook handling out of the box.
• Plans and entitlements — decide exactly what each tier can build, publish and spend.
• Credit system with a full usage ledger — every AI action is metered and accounted for.
• Invoices — generated automatically for every payment.

Run the Whole Business From One Dashboard

• Users, roles and abilities — fine-grained permissions for your team.
• AI settings, themes, SEO and languages — light/dark themes with accent colors, translation management, meta defaults.
• Content tools — blog, custom pages, newsletter subscribers and a contact inbox, all included.
• Session control and two-factor authentication — security features your customers expect.

Ships Like a Product

• Guided web installer — install from the browser like WordPress; no terminal needed.
• Marketing site included — landing page, blog and legal pages ready on day one.
• Multi-language ready — add languages and manage every line from the dashboard.
• Built on Laravel + Livewire — a modern, maintainable stack your developer will thank you for.
