Building the future of the web.
We're on a mission to make building and hosting a website as simple as describing what you want.
A tool we wished existed.
Unshift started as a simple observation: getting a website online was either expensive and slow (hiring a developer) or limiting and frustrating (using a locked-in builder).
We built the tool we wished existed: one that combines AI generation with visual editing, instant hosting, and full code ownership. Describe what you want, customize it visually, and publish to a live URL in minutes.
Traditional website builders lock you into their platforms. We handle the hosting while giving you the code. Build fast, go live instantly, own everything.
Effortless from idea to live.
We believe getting online should be effortless. With AI-powered generation, a visual editor, and instant hosting on Cloudflare's global CDN, anyone can go from idea to live website in minutes.
But unlike other platforms, we never hold your code hostage. Every site is a real codebase on GitHub: React, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS. Take it anywhere, modify everything.
We handle hosting, SSL, and custom domains so you can focus on building. When you need more control, the code is right there waiting for you.
The principles that guide us.
The tenets we return to when we're making product decisions.
Code ownership
Your code belongs to you. No lock-in, no proprietary formats, just clean exportable code.
Developer first
Built by developers who understand what you need. Modern stack, best practices, TypeScript.
Speed without compromise
Launch fast without sacrificing quality. AI generation meets production-ready output.
Why Unshift?
In JavaScript, unshift() adds elements to the front of an array. It represents our philosophy: putting powerful tools at the forefront of your development workflow.
We're here to shift how you build websites, starting from the very beginning.
