Great Software Ai built me a new website in seconds...just wished there were more premium widgets for tier 5 white label users with unlimited websites

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!

Versatile and Impressive Site and Landing Page Builder

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

Needs a lot of work

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.

A Long Way from a Finished Product... Future Potential?

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.

4⭐️ Because The Overall Is Good

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.

Not ready by a long shot

They've got the premise of a good idea, however, that's where it ends.

I think everybody had high expectations. As others have said, the output is not great. It promised to revolutionise the way we create websites with its cutting-edge features and ease of use. Unfortunately, my experience fell far short of the expectations set by the appsumo sales pitch!

My initial impression is at first glance, that it seems like a promising tool with a clean interface. However, as I dove deeper into using the platform, several issues became apparent.

I found the interface to be clunky and you can't actually change as much as you think. You can't resize the images on the sections, there's no option to edit any padding or margins and most outputs look very similar, especially the footers.

It feels like a site that is built with custom fields and as we all know, the only thing you can do with a custom field is change the text and image at best.

The AI capabilities touted in the sales blurb appeared to be overblown. The builder struggled with generating layouts that were both aesthetically pleasing and functional. As I said, customisation options were limited, and the output that it provided felt amateurish, outdated and lacklustre.

In summary, Stunning fails to live up to its name. The AI website builder falls short in terms of usability and features.

I do wish them good luck and hope they can progress with it further and add more features and concentrate their efforts in getting the output to look better.

Well, you asked...

It's always a challenge when you know a developer's heart is in the right place, but the software needs work. Do you leave honest feedback and potentially hurt their sales, or do you stay silent and hope they can pull it together?

I think Stunning's heart is in the right place. But the software is currently weak. It keeps producing basically the same ungainly starter site for me, design-wise, no matter what info I give for the initial prompts (a little or a lot of detail). It doesn't understand color contrast (legibility issues). Layout options are primitive.

IMO, it needs different "modes". It needs a "pro" mode for if you do have good copy, because you can't tell the builder where to put your existing copy, and it has a (small) mind of it's own. And yes, I know you can go back in and change everything, but then you might as well be using Wordpress.

And really, if you need the "done-for-you and write it all for you" mode, should you be building a website at all? Because what you get is so generic that it won't serve you well.

Plus, it's a locked box, so you can't expand beyond the functions that Stunning offers, and your ability to embed outside features is limited for coding and security reasons — currently.

So this is something to buy and hold, and hope. Because I can't imagine using it for anything production-ready at this point.

I thought I might be able to use it as an idea-generator, at least for now. But I'm not liking the outputs it produces at this stage. YMMV. (sorry folks)

Early stage software, has potential

Stunning is an innovative tool that aims to simplify the website creation process using AI technology. It's designed for individuals who want to build websites quickly, such as aspiring website agency owners or those looking to establish an online presence for their business.

You can see my demo as part of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZjcCJNzXzk

I found the platform easy to use, the dashboard of Stunning is user-friendly, allowing users to start creating a website with just a few clicks. The process involves a chat GPT-style interaction where the AI asks about the brand tone, voice, and other preferences. This intuitive approach makes it accessible even for those with minimal technical expertise.

While Stunning automates the design process, generating color palettes and suggesting layouts, it currently has a limited selection of blocks. This limitation means the generated websites looking somewhat similar. However, users can upload logos, edit text, and add call-to-action buttons, providing a degree of customization.

It's an early stage product so I expect this will be something that can be addressed as more layout options are added to the design pool.

The platform also includes n AI marketing module for creating ads on various platforms and promotional emails, as well as an inbuilt CRM for managing subscribers. These features could be particularly beneficial for small businesses looking to streamline their marketing efforts.

There's an AI blog writer, I've only tried it a couple of times and it was OK. Be aware of the fair usage policy, which may require you to use your own OpenAI API key if you generate a lot of content. I think this is a fair solution to avoid potential abuse of the system.

The main issue for me was the HTML embedding ability didn't work very well. I tried to embed a contact form, a Beacon lead magnet form and a GoTeam up booking calendar and none of them worked. Again, hopefully this can be addressed in time.

I contacted support a couple of times and they were quick to respond and helpful.

So this one is a bit of a gamble, as it stands right now this is early stage software but it has the potential to be a great tool.

Not what it seems.

I'm reaching out to express my disappointment with the current state of the Stunning platform, particularly concerning its white label capabilities. Despite investing over $800, including tax, for Tier 6, I've found that Stunning falls short of delivering a true white label experience due to several significant limitations:

1. **Billing under Stunning Brand:** The prominent presence of the Stunning brand in billing processes undermines the white label concept.

2. **Join Slack - Strong Stunning Branding:** The requirement for our customers to join Slack, especially under the Strong Stunning Branding since everyone talks about stunning there, is inappropriate. This should be exclusive to your customers, not ours.

3. **Non-Customizable Login Magic Link:** The inability to customize the login magic link detracts from the branding experience and severely limits personalization options.

4. **Unfulfilled Promises:** The absence of delivery dates for planned features, such as SMTP integration and over 20 other promised features, reduces them to mere promises without any guaranty that they will be integrated. This becomes especially concerning when issues raised remain unresolved on the roadmap without communication.

5. **Numerous Bugs:** The platform suffers from various bugs, including the AI consistently selecting the same color template and ignoring user-provided color preferences or codes. Customization features are notably lacking.

These issues have significantly impacted the user experience and have left me hesitant to continue using the platform. I kindly request that you inform me when these issues are adequately addressed and resolved. I'm open to reconsidering my decision and giving Stunning a second chance if these concerns are appropriately handled. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Promising Features with Great Potential!

Stunning.so is beyond my expectation. Despite being in the development phase, the features that are already in place are impressive and show immense potential for growth and refinement.

Mohamed and the team behind Stunning.so is clearly committed to innovation, as evidenced by their responsive customer support and transparent communication regarding upcoming features.

The integration of tools such as AI Marketing, AI Genie, CRM, and collaborative capabilities for agencies indicates a forward-thinking approach tailored to meet the dynamic needs of modern businesses.
While there are areas still under development, such as website editor, blogging system and components editors, the current roadmap and frequent updates provided by the team give confidence that these features will be implemented effectively soon.

Pros:
* Comprehensive Features: Stunning.so offers a range of features including website creation and AI marketing tools. The inclusion of AI Genie is still in infancy phase, but it is promising.
* White Label Options: The platform supports white label services (activated yesterday) which is crucial for agencies looking to brand the service as their own. Although some aspects like custom SMTP and URL customization are still in progress.
* Responsive Development Team: The interaction with the development team via updates and direct communications (as seen on their roadmap and Slack support channels) is highly responsive and user-focused.

Cons:
* Ongoing Development: Certain key features are not yet available.
* Limited Information on Some Features: Any videos on how to use stunning will be great. Hopefully they will add more tutorials.

Overall, if you're looking for a platform that combines robust functionality with the flexibility of white labeling, Stunning.so is definitely worth considering. The current capabilities coupled with the exciting future make it a promising choice for any agency looking to enhance its digital offerings.
I'm in Tier 4, but I'm planning to upgrade to Tier 6.

It's a Gem. Don't miss out guys.

Not there yet

Beautifully created, functionality is good but immediately had to get a refund since 2 of the reasons I purchased tier 6 is because I immediately wanted to white label it under my company and start selling to my clients, but there is no white label features at all. Not only that, it's not even on the roadmap which means it'll be a very long time to rollout a functioning white label system.
Secondly, After creating my first A.I website, I immediately went to customize it, starting with the color, which there was no option to customize the website for what would even be a standard website editor for ANY website building platform. So I clicked the button for A.I to regenerate the website and nothing really changed, so as I continued to regenerate a section, it never really changed anything other than pics and the switching of Words and pics from left to right. I had to get an immediate refund..
