The 10 Best AI Website Builders for Small Business, From Shopify Canvas to Durable

Shopify just let merchants design a store by chatting with AI. Here are ten builders that turn a description into a working site, and who each one is for.

You no longer need a designer to get a professional site online. Each of these tools builds a first draft from a plain-language description, then lets you edit it. They differ in price, how much control you get, and what kind of business they suit best.
