Hi, I’m Joe, the founder here at Universe, and I couldn’t be more excited to share GUS with the world.
As of today, our AI-powered designer is available to everyone on iOS. GUS is a whole new way to make sites. Just have a quick conversation, share what you want to want to build and boom… you’ll have a fully custom website for anything you can imagine. You can make edits, add images, change colors, and more in our award-winning GRID editor.
GUS (Generative Universe Sites) started with a hunch that generative AI could be used to radically expand who could build websites. After exploring the possibility space, we figured out how to use an LLM (GPT) to chat with a user, glean their intent, and send data to our platform to build a site. In the process, we learned what GPT is really good at (disambiguating ambiguous human text) and combined it with what we’re good at (the principles of good web design). The combination leads to great looking sites, more often that you’d expect. We chronicled our journey building GUS in a video series called Open Studio.
We’ve been running a private beta for the last few weeks to get early feedback on GUS and it’s been inspiring to see what our creators are building with it. Now we’re ready to give everyone access to the magic of GUS. I’m eager to hear what you all think.
