The website builder for agents and humans. Owned by you.·chaibuilder.com

ChaiBuilder is a low-code, self-hosted visual website builder for React and Next.js that installs as npm packages into an application you own. Editors build pages visually, developers extend the builder with custom blocks and panels, and AI agents such as Claude, Cursor or VS Code edit and publish pages through a built-in MCP server. It ships with an open-source core (chaicore) and a paid Platform license (chaipro) that adds multi-tenancy, roles, AI assistant, the MCP server, multilingual support and more, with an optional Payload CMS for structured content.
