Websites on benchy.site
Design a website on a canvas or build one in a folder, and Benchy hosts it at name.benchy.site or on your own domain.
How it works
- Build it. Design it on a canvas in Studio, or work in a folder with Benchy Desktop or your own agent.
- Preview. Publish a preview to its own address; the live website doesn't change.
- Go live. Publish to
https://name.benchy.site/, or your own domain on a paid plan. Visitors get the new version within 15 seconds. - Keep it up to date. Edit words and pictures in Studio, read form entries, and roll back to any earlier version at once.
What a website is
A website is an address plus every version published there. It usually belongs to a project, which holds the canvas or files it is built from; a website publishes one project. It belongs to the project's workspace, whose plan sets its limits, and has the project's access; in a private project, the workspace's Owner can still manage its domains and delete it, but not change it. The project's BENCHY.md can name it, so the CLI and agents know where to publish.
Every publish to the live address is a fixed version, and putting an earlier one back is instant. Publishing and serving are free on every plan; custom domains need a paid plan, and form entries have a monthly quota. See Plans and limits.
What runs where
| Where | What runs there |
|---|---|
| Your computer | Your agent, your editor, your build (npm run build and the like) and local previews |
| Benchy | The address, versions and previews, certificates for your domains, the content your team edits in Studio, and form entries |
| Your visitors’ browsers | Your HTML, CSS and JavaScript. A browser app, a game or a tool works as long as it needs no server of its own |
A website that needs a backend calls one you run elsewhere; see What a website serves.
Where to start
- You don’t write code: design on a canvas and publish it from Studio.
- You use Claude Code, Codex or Cursor: connect your agent and ask it to start a website.
- You already have a built site: publish its folder with
benchy site deploy.
