Building an AI site builder this time. Looking for ideas about next features.
Hey indie hackers!
I know it's over saturated at this point but I couldn't find anywhere a tool that can create simple landing pages which are exportable to code so I decided to do it myself!
A few buddies and I have been building SenecAI the last few weeks and have a pretty good amount of traction and feedback (no serious sales yet, just early bird stuff). Even decided to add it on my upwork profile as $50 projects to get some extra free traffic.
Wanted to ask what you guys think are the most important features of a website builder. In our case we are working on a "start no-code, evolve to code" type of flow where users can quickly create a simple landing page, share it, start capturing emails and then export to next.js code.
Some things we think are important and possibly want to work on in the next few days.
- Email automation. Send emails to your whole email list directly through senec.ai
- CRM integrations. Possibly automatically import your email list in your CRM like hubspot.
- Simple analytics.
Thanking everyone in advance 🙇♂️
Hi , Tista this side from Versalence.
We build on Botpress, N8N, Flowise along with VAPI and RetellAI for Voice and much more.
For any automation task, would love to collab!

Few thoughts that came to mind:

We are targeting people that want to rapidly test startup ideas. Most of them would be tech people that want to skip the coding part in the initial validation phase.
The thing we do that no other AI builder does is export to code, which is super useful even in my case as a dev. The builder is not powerful enough yet so we are banking on exporting to code currently.
Interesting target audience. We believe the earliest stage a tech founder can use https://skilledup.life is for concept validation well before starting the development of the first version of the product.
I think that "Simple analytics" is to prioritize.
If i am a customer and i built a website with your tool (or another one), i need analytics to see what is going on my website. and as you said i want it to be simple not something complicated with marketing jargon pro.
Thanks for the feedback, had a hunch I should work on some analytics next! Do you think that should be behind a paywall?
i am not sure, but i think so.
if you have some users and traction than do A/B test if it is possible.
Love what you are building here so far!
I'm featuring this tool for my database of 250+ free A.I tools
Thank you, really appreciate it!
Hi Jim, you've built an impressive application 😃
Here're some more features which will further enhance its utility!
Thanks for the feedback!
Some of these are in my todo list, image generation is still hard. AI can do a pretty good job at simple non-human scenarios, but it still doesn't understand the concept of "fitting" an image to a website. Although we have partial support! If the AI decides to put image block you can click them and generate images.
Def need to show off some pre-built AI generated pages.
Collaboration features might be an interesting thing to work on, although these tend to need a ton of backend work. Probably is a good idea after a certain revenue stream has been achieved.
See if you can speed it up, I put something in and hasn't responded yet.
Looking into it!
nice work! if you like, submit your project on braiain for some more visibility.
Tried it.
The expectation is higher than it turns out.
Very Useful! would have been nicer to export has HTML & to include basic customization option or templates, just yesterday to make a simple landing page I had to install wordpress and elementor.
I think the most important feature of a website builder should be to build the most difficult part of the website i.e. billing, crm, etc.
