The name is a bit confusing because there is another program called Synthesia that is basically Guitar Hero for piano.

Thank's for the feedback, there's also another AI Video generation called Synthesia as well so I decided to change it Web Factory

How is this better than Wordpress? Does it help me with SEO? What do I do if I need a liiiittle bit of extra functionality like a contact form.

The design of the website is more customizable as you can change the majority of the styling properties for any element of the website. I haven't built anything to optimize the sites for SEO, but that's a great idea. I'm currently finishing contact form functionality where you get form submissions built into the application or set a custom action attribute to send them to your own url.

Now seems to be redirecting to ... https://webfactory.ai/

Yeah, I apologize for the confusion, I decided to change the name to Web Factory AI since I made the post but can't edit the title or description.

What's the "AI" component? Not being arsey - genuinely interested, but couldn't find anything on the website.

How is this different from say Squarespace (which I've never used btw)? The website doesn't really tell me. The slogan says it's "The Next Generation of Website Builders" but then doesn't tell me why. Does it have more functionality? Is it easier to use? Is it cheaper? Is there AI, and what does it do? Basically, as a potential customer, why would I choose this product over the one that everyone's heard of? All I got…

I appreciate the feedback and I think that's the most critical question for me to answer right now. I think Web Factory is more customizable so you can change the majority of the styles to create unique designs. I hope that as I continue to iterate on it, it becomes easier to use than alternatives and it's slightly cheaper than Webflow and Squarespace. The AI part of it is still a work in progress for future updates, but I'm building a system that can convert Figma Designs into source code to automate web development. I think updating the landing page and finishing the desired features is a great idea. Thank you!
