The fastest way to build a website

Stunning.so is an absolute game-changer in the world of website building! As an AI-powered generative website builder, it’s clear that the team behind this platform has a bold and impressive vision for the future. While it’s not perfect yet (what groundbreaking tool is in its early stages?), the potential is undeniable.

The AI effortlessly generates sleek, modern designs that feel tailor-made for your needs. It’s incredibly intuitive, saving hours of time that would otherwise be spent on manual design and coding. The customization options are robust, allowing you to tweak and refine the AI’s suggestions to match your unique style.

What really stands out is how Stunning.so empowers complete beginners, the platform makes professional-grade web design accessible to everyone. I can’t wait to see how this tool evolves over time. If this is just the beginning, the future of web design is going to be stunning indeed! Highly recommend giving it a try. I ran into some minor issues but support was super helpful. They are in the process of launching a new ai section builder. Once that is ready you can create whatever you want. I think it will take a couple of months before it is where they want to be, but this is already very impressive.

I want to give my personal feedback on negative responses I read on both AS as saw on Youtube. The formbuilder in the platform are limited, but with the embed option I was able to place my crm's webform directly in the landingpage. In minutes my webform was able to collect data.

It is true that you need to refresh the screen after deleting a section. That can be improved.
It is true that when you embed your own code you need to hit regenerate a couple of times till you have a text element that you can edit (video and iframe generated by ai can not be edited due to a bug)
But those are the only issue i came across during working a couple of hours in the platform.
What else is true is that was able to build a pretty slick looking page in a couple of hours, where the layout and text was done in minutes. Thank you Stunning.so for bringing this to Appsumo.

I’ll be brief. I’ve tried them all, and I’ve had many disappointments, especially with the developers of other products. I trust Stunning because of the team, their leadership, their proven track record of success, and most importantly, how much they’ve improved Stunning over time. Their Slack channel is amazing, and if you buy Stunning and join soon, you can help shape the product we love!

It’s a no-brainer , so please don’t miss out. I’ve already sold six websites that generate concurrent revenue with Stunning, and my clients love it because the team keeps delivering amazing new updates. Really, don’t miss this!

This is a great product that continues to be improved. If you are an agency, this is the way to go!

I purchased the highest tier 6 ($799) just a few days ago, based on the roadmap and AppSumo reviews. After initial checks and community interactions, I feel compelled to warn others:

- 10 features from the May 2024 roadmap remain undelivered after 8+ months.

- 8 features from the same roadmap were only shipped 10 days ago – a 246-day delay!

- Last weekly update on their Frill.co roadmap: October 2024. No progress communication there since then.

- Threatened with a ban for asking about roadmap delays (details below) – in my first week as a buyer!

While I’ve only used the product briefly, these systemic issues (lack of transparency, aggressive moderation) are a dealbreaker for me as an investor. I’ve already requested a refund.

I won’t even start on the beta-level software, missing basic features like sitemap generation (hello, 2025!), or the fact that core developments are outsourced to third parties – forcing users to pay monthly fees for "premium" plugins (only one is free per website; others cost extra). The unprofessional conduct and threats over legitimate questions are reason enough to abandon a SaaS that tramples its supporters.

To all buyers: Scrutinize the Frill roadmap (stunning.frill.co/roadmap/) – many 'planned' features have stagnated since May 2024. If you accept Early Adopter risks but expect respect and updates, steer clear!

The question that gave me a banning threat:

Me: "when will this (feature) ship? its planned already since 6 May, 2024?
Its a deal or no deal for me, so i really need an ETA, please"
Founder: "Well then no deal. We don't work for you, and if you use such tone again you will be banned. The above feature is a suggestion that is planned, so If you come here treat us like that you will do yourself a favor and be banned, Be respectful, be nice, and we will help you. Otherwise, go to another product. Hope we clear on this. Thank you."

**UPDATE**
The founder claims Frill was never used for official roadmaps. However:
1. Frill was promoted as the central roadmap tool during my purchase.
2. No announcement was made about discontinuing Frill updates.
3. The lack of transparency (last update: Oct 2024) remains unresolved.

Additionally:
- **Frill Status Changes:** Despite claiming Frill hasn’t been used for 8 months, features were marked "shipped" just 11 days ago – a clear contradiction.
- **V3 Launch Issues:** The founder claimed V2 was "last year," yet just days ago, I could only use 1 widget without paying extra for more. Section creation was also buggy and unreliable.
- **Toxic Communication:** Instead of addressing my concerns, the founder accused me of being "rude, bullying, or disrespectful." This pattern of dismissive responses is consistent. In another review, the founder wrote: *'I'll add your name to our list to make sure we keep our bad product as far away as possible from you.'* Such behavior is unprofessional and reveals a pattern of silencing critics rather than improving the product.

As for Common Ninja: Even if widgets were free (or better, just one), outsourcing core features is not what I paid $800 for.

So after entering, its asking to give a prompt and the moment you ask it to create a website, give an error "Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information). i will wait for the tech support to respond, otherwise i am going to return the product.

The editor is a bit too slow - actually the whole website is a bit slow. I think this should be the top priority for improvement as it really affects the user experience.
It seems the company is also trying to add many other features, such as a AI marketing, which is a bit confusing for what it is marketed as. I'm happy to see more features, but I think the focus should be on addressing user feedback first.
Overall, it does its job. I won't use it to create the whole website, but probably just for landing pages until they fix the slow loading issue.

Pros:
N/A

Cons:
1) Unmatching security certificate --> poses security risk.
2) Zero template to choose from
3) Automatically add "5-star reviews", "As seen on [so and so]", and "4.8 Google Reviews". I cannot remove any of them. Clicked on the "trash" button several times. Did not work.
4) Cannot change background image

I should have listened to the other reviewers. Do not waste your money.

Hello i would like to say that this platform is defintely stunning. I created a quick simple site. I purchased the tier 5 option. I was continuing to buld a design and found out that the premium widgets are only 1 per active website. As with that limitation i just dont see how i could build multiple websites for clients. Everything that could make the website standout is a premium widget. Is that a typo? When you try to add more premium widget it prompts you to upgrade but how do i upgrade if I'm already on the top tier 5? That's actually 1 of the main downsides of the software. i mad something real nice but the Appsumo deal and what you get after the investment is kind of misleading. You have premium widgets but only get to pick 1 widget per active website. I feel without unlimited premium widgets feature your asking to lose potential clients! Is there a way to upgrade to get more or unlimited premium widgets to use for 1 website build? After the huge investment It's kind of frustrating to have these limits. Besides that I love this! It has actually saved me a lot of time...I just would like to have the ability to upgrade for more premium widgets on 1 website build. Hopefully you can put that in the future roadmap for current white label users!

This has a great balance of simplicity and function. The learning curve is quick and you can produce simple landing pages to full web sites. The evolution of the builder in the short time Stunning has been on AppSumo is remarkable and gives us a lot of confidence on the toolset moving forward as an agency buyer. I think you can safely disregard any of the negative comments from the early reviews as everything has changed since then. Sorry for such a late review

Found some things very annoying:-

1. Auto-saving keeps going on and on
2. Site takes more than 5 seconds to open(even though 1 page, hardly any images)
3. CNAME is via some third party(still manage-able)
4. AI is just name-sake, jump the bandwagon, preset templates appearing one after the other no matter what you type.
5. Weird post generator for google ad, fb ad, twitter- who uses this inside a website builder? Just stuffing too much, too soon in the early lifecyle of the product.

Maybe take inspiration from framer here.

Lot of potential definitely but product in very early stages, should write BETA, will see if support resolves queries or will refund it.

It is challenging to give a one-star review when you genuinely hope the software will at least meet your minimum expectations. However, when it falls short, honesty and pragmatism are necessary in a review to help others avoid similar frustrations.

Currently, after investing $800 in Tier 6, I have yet to successfully build even a basic website. For the amount I paid, I might not expect unlimited sites, but comparable software typically allows for the creation of at least 10 to 15 reasonably attractive, functional websites. I am not expecting the standard of a top-tier AI 10 web builder, but the quality provided here is disappointingly low.

The software feels reminiscent of a deal from W* Plus, promising much but delivering little. It comes across as amateurish and inadequately tested. My primary issue is the inability to meaningfully edit the auto-generated site. The custom auto-created buttons cannot be deleted or changed, which severely limits customization. Despite being informed that a new editor would be available by the end of last week, I am still waiting for an update on its progress.

I share the disappointment expressed by others regarding the AppSumo sales pitch. Initially, it seemed easy to get started with the promise of great AI-generated websites. Unfortunately, the reality is different. The software produces uneditable objects, features a clunky interface, prevents resizing images or adjusting margins and padding, and generates very similar sites. New sections are inserted at the end of the page rather than where you want them.

I sincerely hope that before my 60-day trial ends, the program will be improved to a usable standard, reflecting the CEO's history of developing quality software. I understand how a one-taco/star review can impact sales and the viability of software. Therefore, I am willing to reconsider my review if the program fulfills its promises.

I bought T6 and giving 4⭐️ for the overall arrangemens of this deal.

The websites are still a bit rookie, but everything else is not and deserves consideration :

1. The founders are not rookies. They have track record in other jobs which raised >$1m funding.

2. The founders have lots of love and in the right heart for this product. They're also tying hard to promote Stunning.

3. The T6 deal scheme unlimited websites is a fair (not a steal) long-term proposition.

4. I bought this with 20% off - from 10% plus + 10% abandon cart coupon.

I'm giving 4⭐️ with the caveat that if in 60 days there's no meaningful signs of sustainability and quality upgrade, I'm going to refund.

I think this is the best way to treat this deal.
