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.

Krikkit — describe your website and watch the AI build it live

Krikkit Lab workspace — AI chat, file tree, code editor and live preview Live preview and one-click publishing to subdomains and custom domains Admin dashboard — users, plans and platform analytics Billing — subscriptions, credits and invoices with Stripe and PayPal Platform settings — AI providers, themes, SEO and languages Marketing site — landing page, blog and legal pages included

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.
