Getting started

Quick start

Go from sign-up to a live website in about ten minutes. Build it, change it, check it on your phone and publish it.

This guide takes you from a new account to a live website you can share. There's nothing to install and no code to write. You describe your business, InMinutes builds the website, and you publish it.

We'll build a website for Luna Bakery, an imaginary neighborhood bakery. Swap in your own business at any step.

You can build and preview your website for free. Putting it live needs a paid plan, and new subscribers can try Pro free for 3 days. See Plans & pricing.

Create your account

Sign up for free with Google, GitHub or your email. No credit card needed. Answer the two quick welcome questions and you'll land on your dashboard. See Create an account.

Describe your business

In the box under Where do you want to start?, describe your business in a few sentences and press send. Try this, or write your own:

A website for Luna Bakery, a family-run bakery in Austin, Texas. We bake sourdough and pastries every morning and make custom cakes. Show our menu with prices, opening hours (Tue–Sun, 7am–3pm), our location, and customer reviews. Warm, cozy style.

Not sure what to write? Click one of the example buttons under the box, like Café or Hair salon, to fill in a starting description.

Answer any questions

If one choice would change the whole website, like which design direction to take, InMinutes asks that one question first, with options you can click. Otherwise it starts building straight away.

Watch your website appear

InMinutes plans your pages, writes the text and designs everything, and you see every step as it happens. It usually takes one to three minutes. When it's ready, you're in the editor: the chat on the left and your website on the right.

Make your first change

Ask for one change at a time and look at the preview after each one. For example:

Add a "Today's specials" section under the menu with two items, each with a short description and a price.

Your website doesn't look or feel how you imagined? Say so in plain words. This is a perfectly good request:

Make the whole website feel warmer and less formal.

Small changes start straight away. For bigger ones, like a new section or page, the chat first shows a card with what it will do and roughly how many credits it uses. Click Apply this change.

Fix small things yourself

For small tweaks, like a typo or a phone number, click the pointer button in the chat box, click the text on your website and just type. This is free and instant. See Visual edits.

Check it on a phone

Click Mobile at the top of the preview. Most people will visit your website on their phone, so click through every page and button.

Publish

Click Publish at the top-right, check your free address (like lunabakery.inminutes.app), and click Publish in the panel. Your website is live. Copy the link and share it! See Publish your website.
