Product overview
What is Butternut AI?
Butternut AI is an AI website builder for small businesses, professionals, and portfolio owners. A user enters a business name, description, language, and optional design direction, and the product generates a multi-page website with layout, images, and copy. The generated site can then be edited and published without coding or design experience.
The platform combines website generation with hosting, SSL, security, backups, mobile optimization, and domain connection. It also includes automated SEO, an AI blog writer, forms and lead capture, and tools for selling products, courses, services, subscriptions, or other digital offerings. A higher-tier plan adds a custom AI chatbot trained on the business's data.
How to Use Butternut AI

- Review the generated layout, images, and copy, then customize colors, text, videos, images, and pages as needed.
