How it works
You build with AI. We run the plumbing.
What Hettie does behind the scenes, how your site is hosted, and why you can always take everything with you.
Our approach
Claude and ChatGPT have become great at making websites. Describe the business, give feedback, and a good-looking site appears in minutes. So we don't build another website builder. You keep building where you already are.
What AI tools don't do is the boring part that comes after: hosting, a domain with HTTPS, forms that actually reach you, knowing who visited, and a copy of every version in case something breaks. It is the plumbing people forget until a lead goes missing. That is the part Hettie takes care of.
We keep it simple on purpose. Hettie is made for marketing websites: launching something new, testing an idea, running a campaign page. You can go from a chat to a live site on your own domain in an afternoon, with no setup to learn first. We leave out the enterprise features most of these sites never need, so there is less to configure and less to go wrong.
How to use Hettie
Think of Hettie as your own IT person for your website and marketing tech. It looks after the site, the domain, the forms and the numbers, and you reach it wherever you happen to be.
In chat. Add the Hettie connector to Claude or ChatGPT. Then build and publish sites, check how they are doing and get your analytics, all in plain words. Because it lives in your chat, you can combine it with everything else you do there: turn this week's leads into a follow-up email, or a launch plan into a live page.
On the web. The Hettie web app shows every site, its visitors, leads, posts, photos and domain, whenever you want to look for yourself.
On your phone. The mobile app is for a quick check on the go: today's visitors and every new lead, with a one-tap reply.
How we host your site
When you publish, Hettie builds your site and uploads only the files that changed. Each site runs as its own small program on Cloudflare's global network, so pages are served from a location close to every visitor. There is no server for you to keep running and nothing to patch.
Every publish is kept as a version. If something looks wrong, putting the previous one back takes a second. Your own domain connects with one DNS record, and HTTPS is set up and renewed for you.
Features built in, not bolted on
Most sites collect plugins and scripts: a form service, an analytics tag, a cookie banner, an image host. Each one is another account, another bill and another thing that can break.
On Hettie they are part of the platform, so your AI does not have to wire anything up and there is nothing to forget.
Leads. Every form on your site saves each reply as a lead, emails it to you and remembers where the visitor came from.
Analytics. Visits are counted from the first day, without cookies, so there is no banner to add.
Blog. Posts live in Hettie next to your photos, and go live the moment you press Publish.
Built with Astro, made for marketing sites
Every Hettie site is built with Astro, the web framework made for content and marketing sites, and widely considered the best choice for them. You don't need to know it: your AI does. Just say what you want, and it knows how to build it this way.
Fast. Pages load quickly, which visitors on a phone and search engines both reward. It scales. The same site works for a one-page launch and for hundreds of pages and posts. It is portable. Astro is open source and runs almost anywhere, so your site is never tied to Hettie.
Your site and data are yours
You can take everything with you at any time. Download the source of any published version and keep working on it anywhere. Export your leads as a spreadsheet. Your posts come out as Markdown files, and your photos have plain links you can download.
Because your site is a normal Astro project, you can host it almost anywhere. You are never locked in.
Hosted on Cloudflare
Hettie runs on Cloudflare, the network that serves a large share of the web. Your site, its storage and its visitor counts live there, close to your visitors, with protection against attacks and outages built into the network.
You never need a Cloudflare account of your own. Hettie runs it for you, so you get the same infrastructure large companies use, without the setup.
