Netlify Drop or DashPloy?

Both put an AI-made site on a free public link, both let a domain you own point at it, and both can be published to by an AI: Claude has a Netlify connector. The difference is what each is built around. Netlify is a developer platform with a drag-and-drop page in front of it; DashPloy is built for your assistant to publish, read errors written for it, fix what fails and publish again when you ask for a change.
