24 alternatives to Zolly

Hi HN — I built Zolly after getting frustrated with AI app builders that generate code but make even small UI changes painful. Most tools stop at code generation. The moment you want to tweak layout, spacing, text, or colors, you’re back to manually editing code. That breaks the fast-iteration promise for solo builders. Zolly generates websites and simple web apps from a prompt, but the core idea is a real visual editor on top of the AI output. You can click, drag, and edit the UI instead of digging through generated code. You can: – Generate websites, landing pages, and small web apps from…

    Pagy 1.0▲375

    Hi, today I launched Pagy, a website builder that works like Notion. It’s currently limited to one-page websites but I’m planning to add support for multiple pages soon. I’ve been working on this for over a year and half on the side, and recently quit my job to go full-time on it. The front-end is built on React and Next.js, running on Vercel, and I’m using Slate.js for the editor. The back-end is a Ruby on Rails API, running on Render. Would love to hear your thoughts and happy to answer any questions.

    As a founder, I've always had the hardest time building landing pages. You either buy a template and spend hours editing, or scream at Cursor to "make it beautiful". It's exhausting and waste of our time as founders. We simply need AI to generate beautiful landing pages that we can ship. I'd been working on this problem statement for a while and was able to get great results when I provided AI with a detailed design system to follow. So I ended up building a collection where I've curated 100s of design systems for AI tools to use. Now, after launch of Nano-Banana, I updated our flow to first…

    Hello HN! A few weeks ago I tried looking for a way to quickly create business sites without spending hours designing or using generic templates. AI seemed to be the answer.

    Hey HN, We built a different kind of AI benchmark for UI generation. Instead of static leaderboards or curated screenshots, you can watch multiple models generate the same design live, side-by-side, and decide which output is actually better. Under the hood, we call AI models from Anthropic (Opus), OpenAI (GPT), Google (Gemini), and Moonshot AI (Kimi). Each model generates a real, editable project using Tailwind CSS (not screenshots or canvas exports). You can export it for Next.js, Laravel (Blade), Symfony (Twig), WordPress, or plain HTML. What we noticed building this: * Popular benchmarks…
