Purpose-built for small businesses, the platform combines conversational AI, built-in business functionality, reliable hosting and 24/7 human support
Bluehost launched its AI Builder, a purpose-built platform that lets small business owners create professional websites and working business applications simply by describing what they need, without requiring coding, technical expertise, or a large development budget.
Announced during Bluehost ELEVATE, the company’s inaugural small business growth summit, AI Builder brings website creation, business applications, hosting and human expertise together in one platform built for entrepreneurs.
The Bluehost AI Builder is purpose-built to help small businesses create the applications and tools they need to operate and grow from appointment booking systems and customer relationship management (CRM) to customer portals and internal operations dashboards. Combined with seamless hosting, domains and 24/7 human support, it brings creation and business operations together in one experience.

“For decades, the internet has helped small businesses get online. AI is creating a much bigger opportunity, helping them actually run and grow their businesses,” said Sachin Puri, Chief Executive Officer of Newfold Digital, parent company of Bluehost. “A business owner shouldn’t need a team of developers or a large budget to turn an idea into reality. With Bluehost AI Builder, they can go from an idea to a working website or application in minutes, with the hosting, business tools and human expertise to support them as they grow. Our ambition is simple: give every entrepreneur the tools and confidence to turn an idea into a thriving business.”
From an Idea to a Live Website or Application in Minute
Bluehost AI Builder simplifies the entire website and app creation process, allowing business owners to focus on their business rather than the technical work behind their online presence. Users can describe their vision in plain language, upload their own logos, photos and business documents, or share a link to a website they admire for design inspiration. The AI then asks a few clarifying questions, builds an initial version in minutes and allows users to watch as their website or application takes shape in real time.
Once the initial build is complete, users can continue refining their experience through a simple chat interface, requesting updates, new pages, content changes, and additional functionality without navigating complicated editing tools or writing code. When ready, users can publish their creation to Bluehost hosting with one click, using a Bluehost subdomain or their own domain.
Key Features include:
- From prompt to published: Describe a website or app in plain language, including portfolios, blogs, booking sites and customer portals, then publish it to Bluehost hosting with one click.
- Built around your business: Upload logos, photos and business documents, then refine designs and content through simple conversation with a live preview.
- Business tools built in: Create booking systems, invoices, databases and member portals, complete with user accounts, so small businesses can run key processes directly within AI Builder.
- Ready to be discovered: Automatically generate search-friendly pages, titles, descriptions and image alt text, and buy, transfer or connect a domain without leaving the builder.
- Built to grow with you: Add websites, applications and team members as business needs evolve, all within one Bluehost account, backed by reliable hosting and 24/7 support.
Build with AI. Host without consuming AI credits.
Bluehost AI Builder offers a free starting point, allowing entrepreneurs to build and publish on a Bluehost subdomain without a credit card. Paid plans include a custom domain and hosting. AI credits are used for building and editing, not hosting so a published website can stay online even when building credits run out, subject to the plan’s hosting terms.
Real people behind the technology, 24/7
While AI makes building easier, small business owners still need support from people they can trust. AI Builder is backed by Bluehost’s 24/7 human support, giving customers access to real experts who can help with their websites, applications, domains, email and hosting, during the build and long after launch.
