Generating and editing landing pages with AI

Describe the page you want and get back editable HTML/CSS loaded into the builder.

On this page:

Overview

Every landing-page record has an AI Edit button in the builder toolbar. Click it, describe the page you want, and SiteDetour runs an asynchronous generation job that returns editable HTML/CSS loaded back into the GrapesJS canvas.

Writing a prompt

Prompts work best when they include:

  • Product/offer — what the page is selling or promoting.
  • Audience — who the page is targeting.
  • Key sections — hero, features, pricing, FAQ, testimonial, CTA.
  • Visual direction — modern, bold, minimal, dark mode, specific brand colors.
  • Call-to-action — the single action you want the visitor to take (book a demo, sign up, download, contact).

Example prompt:

A landing page for a project-management tool aimed at engineering teams. Hero with a headline, subhead, and primary CTA 'Start free trial'. Three feature cards. One testimonial quote. FAQ with four items. Modern, dark-mode aesthetic with neon-green accents.

Generation is async

When you submit a prompt, a job is queued. Statuses:

  • pending — queued, not yet running.
  • processing — the model is generating.
  • completed — HTML/CSS has been loaded into the builder.
  • failed — the job errored. Check the prompt length and retry.

You can continue working on other pages while a generation is in flight.

Iterating on the output

The AI output is normal HTML/CSS in the builder. You can:

  • Drag, resize, and restyle any element visually.
  • Pop into code view to edit the HTML/CSS directly.
  • Replace AI-generated images with your own via the Asset Manager.
  • Re-run AI Edit on the same page to rewrite sections. The previous state is preserved until you apply and save.

What AI is good and bad at

Good at: quickly producing a structured, visually coherent first draft. Laying out unfamiliar page patterns (comparison tables, FAQ accordions, feature grids). Writing rough placeholder copy.

Not good at: nuanced brand voice, exact color matching, on-brand imagery, and legal/compliance copy. Expect to substantially revise copy and swap imagery.

Plan availability

AI Edit is available on paid plans. Check Billing for the AI generation quota on your current plan.
