Which AI do you use?
You don't need to be an AI expert. Pick your assistant, connect free, paste one prompt — your Chatterbuilt Webmaster interviews you and builds a draft site you own.
No tier maze. No 'upgrade to unlock.'
Start free in about two minutes — no key needed. Connect the address, paste one prompt, and your agent takes it from there. Add your key later to unlock everything (free for AI Enterprise subscribers).
Choose your AI
- Open Claude.ai (or Cowork) → Settings → Connectors.
- Choose Add custom connector.
- Paste the connection address below.
- To start free: add no key / leave auth empty → Save.
- Paste the Kickstart Prompt into a new chat.
Connection address

Then paste the Kickstart Prompt below — one paste and you're underway.
- Open ChatGPT → Settings → Apps & Connectors.
- Enable Developer Mode (required for custom connectors).
- Create a connector and paste the connection address below.
- To start free: no auth / leave the key blank → Save.
- Paste the Kickstart Prompt into a new chat.
Connection address
https://mcp.chatterbuilt.com/api/mcp
Then paste the Kickstart Prompt below — one paste and you're underway.
- In your terminal, run the one-liner below (free start — no header).
- Confirm the server shows in `claude mcp list` (or your client UI).
- Open a project chat and paste the Kickstart Prompt.
- Only when upgrading: re-add with an Authorization Bearer header (see Upgrade below).

$ claude mcp add --transport http chatterbuilt https://mcp.chatterbuilt.com/api/mcpThen paste the Kickstart Prompt below — one paste and you're underway.
Upgrade later (optional) — unlock full tools with a key
Add your license key when you're ready
Free tools work with the URL alone. Full access (presets, sections, recipes, render, SEO audit) needs a license key — included free with a paid The AI Enterprise subscription. You never need a key to start.
Claude.ai / ChatGPT: edit the connector and add an Authorization header with value Bearer YOUR_KEY (or your client's equivalent secret field).
Claude Code only — when upgrading, add the header (replace KEY with your license key):
claude mcp add --transport http chatterbuilt https://mcp.chatterbuilt.com/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer KEY"Kickstart
The Kickstart Prompt
Copy this into your connected AI. One paste starts the interview, draft site, and private preview.
You are helping me set up a Chatterbuilt website — a site I own in my GitHub and Vercel, that I update by talking to you.
If you can use MCP tools, connect to https://mcp.chatterbuilt.com/api/mcp (no key needed for free tools). Call start_here for ordered next steps, then run setup-my-site / the brand interview.
If you cannot connect, open https://mcp.chatterbuilt.com and follow Getting started.
Interview me about my business: name, what I do, who I serve, services, hours, voice, and any photos or domain I already have. Build a draft from my answers, show a private preview, and wait for my go-ahead before anything goes live.
After the draft validates: call add_integration_recipe with name local-seo-aeo-checklist for NAP, LocalBusiness schema, service area, reviews, and llms.txt (no Google OAuth; no ranking promises).
Never push production without my approval. Preview branch first; I merge when it looks right. Free tools work without a key — ask before adding a license key for full access.Get found on Google — the parts you control
For most shops, the website is downstream of Google. Nobody can honestly promise rankings. Chatterbuilt does the site-side work — NAP consistency, LocalBusiness schema, service area, reviews, AI-readable pages — then you preview before anything goes live.
- NAP match: name, address, and phone the same on the site and your Google listing.
- LocalBusiness JSON-LD from your real facts — no invented hours, ratings, or prices.
- Service area, services, reviews, and llms.txt so search and answer engines can read the shop.
After you connect, tell your AI: run the local-seo-aeo-checklist recipe (add_integration_recipe). Or call start_here — free and full paths both point there. Use ask_the_manual if you want the long form.
No Google login from Chatterbuilt. No ranking dashboard. No guarantee you hit page one. Best practices, not promises.

What Maria's café actually pays to run the site
| Stage | Cost | What she gets |
|---|---|---|
| Start free | $0 | Site live on a personal-tier host (commercial plans start about $20/month); free Chatterbuilt tools work without a key |
| Own your address | About $11/year | A domain so customers find you by name |
Optional run costs (not Chatterbuilt fees)
None of these are required to launch. Add them when the job shows up. Chatterbuilt itself is not a line item here — full access is included with AIE if she needs it.
Contact-form emails
Free up to 3,000/month
You'll know you need it when people fill out the form and you want those messages in your inbox.
Booking
Has a free tier
You'll know you need it when customers should pick a time instead of emailing back and forth.
Hosting
$0 on a personal plan; about $20/month commercial
Free hosting tiers are for personal projects, so a business site generally needs a paid plan — that is a terms question, not a traffic threshold. You can set a spend cap first.
What it costs to run the site
A custom domain is about $11 a year. GitHub and starter analytics stay on free tiers. Hosting is free on a personal plan; a business site generally needs a commercial one, about $20/month. Email sending has a free allowance too. You only pay more if traffic outgrows free plans. That is the cost of running a website — not a Chatterbuilt product price.
Example monthly cost
Example, not a guarantee — prices are the providers', not ours. Free tiers are for personal projects; a business site may need a commercial plan.
| Item | Typical cost |
|---|---|
| GitHub | $0 |
| Vercel hosting | $0 personal / ~$20 commercial |
| Domain | about $1/month ($11/year) |
| Contact-form email | $0 (free up to 3,000/month) |
| Chatbot | $0 (built in) |
| Site stats | $0 (Umami) |
Typical total: about a dollar a month, plus your hosting tier.
Spend guardrails
You can set hard pause amounts on hosting so a traffic spike never becomes a surprise bill. Agents are instructed not to enable paid services without stating the monthly cost and getting an explicit yes.
Read the spend-guardrails guide →It's yours to take. Your website is standard, portable code in your own account — not trapped in our platform. If something better comes along in five years, take your site and go. No export fees. No rebuild. That's what future-proof means.
