Which AI can publish my website?
Every AI assistant can write a website, but only some can put it online for you. Find which kind you have, follow its steps, then check it works. It takes a few minutes, and you do not need to know anything technical.

The short answer
There are three kinds of AI assistant. Two of them can publish your website. Pick the one you have.
An AI app on your computer
You install it once. Then you paste one line into it and describe your website.
For example: Antigravity, Cursor, Claude Code, or ChatGPT with Codex
How to set one upA chat app with DashPloy added
Nothing to install. You connect DashPloy once in the app, then ask for a website in the chat.
For example: Claude or ChatGPT, where your plan offers connectors
How to connect itA plain chat in a browser tab
It can write your whole website, but it has no way to send it to us. It will tell you so.
For example: ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, opened on their websites
What to do insteadNot using any of these yet? Google Antigravity is free, runs on your computer, and does the whole job — writing the website and putting it online.
Using an AI app on your computer
This is how it works with Antigravity, Cursor, Claude Code, or ChatGPT with Codex and the other apps marked Can publish further down. They all look different, but the steps are the same in every one of them.
Get your free code
Sign in with your Google account. Your code is waiting on your dashboard, already inside the line you will paste. No card.
Install the app and open a folder
Download it from its own website — every link is in Find your AI below — and sign in. When it asks which folder or project to work in, make a new, empty folder for your website. That is where your site's files will be kept.
Find the box where you type to the AI
Every one of these apps has one: a text box, usually at the bottom of a chat or agent panel, where you write to the AI. That is where the line goes. Apps that run in a terminal work the same way — the whole window is the conversation, so you type where the cursor is.
Each app looks a little different. What you are looking for is the place you write to the AI, not the file list and not the code.
Paste the line, then say what you want
Copy the line from your dashboard and paste it into that box. It looks like the one below, with your code added at the end; if you paste this one instead, your AI will ask you for your code.
Deploy my website with DashPloy.
Read https://dashploy.com/llms.txt first — it explains how to publish, how to check what my plan allows before you build, and what to do if I do not have an account yet.Then describe your website in ordinary words, the way you would to a person. For example: “A one-page website for my bakery, with our opening hours, a few photos and a map.”
Say yes when it asks
These apps often ask before they read a web page or send anything, which is them being careful. Allow it for DashPloy. When the AI has finished, it gives you your website's address.
Adding DashPloy to a chat app
Some chat apps can be connected to outside services. Once DashPloy is connected, the AI in that chat can publish your website itself. Nothing to install and no code to paste: it writes the site in the conversation and sends it from there.
This is the address to add:
https://dashploy.com/mcpFind where your app adds connectors
Paste the address
Choose to sign in
Press Connect on our page
Switch it on and ask
My app asks for a key instead of signing in
Give it a header called X-API-Key with your code from your dashboard as its value. Prefer that name over Authorization where both are offered: some apps keep the second for their own sign-in and quietly drop yours, and the connection looks fine right up until the first attempt to publish.
Can an app on my computer use this address too?
Yes. Most of the apps on your computer can add the same address as an MCP server, and then publish through it instead of through the pasted line. It is the same account and the same websites either way. It is optional: if pasting the line already works for you, there is nothing here to change.
Checking it works
Before you ask for a whole website, send your AI this. It takes a few seconds, and it proves everything is connected.
Check my DashPloy account and tell me which plan I am on and how many websites I can make.What the answer means:
-
It tells you your email, your plan and how many websites you have. You are ready. Describe the website you want.
-
It says it cannot send requests, or cannot reach DashPloy. It is a chat in a browser tab, which can write a website but not publish one. Here is what to do.
-
It says your code is not valid. The code was mistyped, replaced or deleted. Make a new one on your codes page and give it that.
-
It says it has no DashPloy tools. The connector is not switched on for this chat, or setup did not finish. Go through the connector steps again.
Find your AI
Some of these names cover more than one product, and they do not all behave the same. Claude in a browser tab and Claude Code share a name, and only one of them can publish. Find the name you know, then the version of it you actually use.
Google AntigravityCan publish
Google’s coding agent, and a different product from the Gemini chat — it runs on your computer and can put a website online. Free, which makes it the one to start with if you are not already paying for an AI tool.
CursorCan publish
An editor with an AI agent built in. The free tier is enough to build and publish a small site.
ClaudeDepends which one
Anthropic’s agent, in your terminal or the desktop app. Needs a paid Claude plan. Not the same thing as claude.ai in a browser tab.
Nothing to install and no code to paste — you add the address, sign in once, and press Connect. After that Claude writes your website in the conversation and publishes it without you leaving the chat.
Only as a link on claude.ai, which is Claude’s address rather than yours and cannot carry your own domain name. A browser tab cannot send the site to us either. Adding DashPloy as a connector is the shortest fix, because nothing gets installed.
ChatGPTDepends which one
OpenAI’s coding agent, on a paid ChatGPT plan. Not the same thing as chatgpt.com in a browser tab.
Same idea as the Claude connector, where your plan offers them. Nothing to install, no code to paste, and it publishes from inside the chat.
On a paid plan, yes: ChatGPT Sites hosts what it builds at its own address, though not on the free plan or in the EU, the UK or Switzerland. What a browser tab cannot do is send a website to us, and it will tell you so rather than pretending. To publish here, add the connector, or move the files to an app that can.
GeminiDepends which one
Google’s assistant as a command-line tool, which can reach us. The Gemini chat in a browser cannot.
Only as a share link: Canvas can give what it builds a public g.co address, which opens inside Gemini and cannot carry your own domain name. The chat has no connector to add, so it cannot send a site to us. Antigravity is Google’s tool that can, and it is free.
OpenCodeCan publish
An open-source coding agent for your terminal, and it brings its own model choice — so it works with whichever AI account you already have.
DevinCan publish
A coding agent that works on tasks on its own. The most hands-off of these, and the most expensive.
Not on this list? Any AI that can send things over the internet for you can publish here. Paste the line and ask — if it cannot, it will tell you.
It built my site and cannot publish it
This is the common one, and you have lost nothing: the website exists, it is just still in the conversation. Two ways to finish.
- Add DashPloy to that same chat, if the app allows it, and ask again. Nothing to install, and you keep the conversation you are already in.
- Move to an AI that can publish. Ask the one you have for all the files, then open one of the tools above, paste the files and the same line, and let it finish.
What you should not do is start again. Whatever your assistant wrote is the website — it only needs somewhere to send it.
Still stuck? Tell us what happened and a person will answer. If the assistant said something we could word better, we would genuinely like to know.
Why some cannot
It is not whether the AI is clever, and not whether you pay for it. It is whether your assistant can send something to us on your behalf.
Reading a page and sending a website are different abilities. An assistant in a browser tab can almost always do the first, which is why it will happily read our instructions and understand them perfectly — and then have no way to act on them. That is not a fault and it is not you doing something wrong.
A good assistant will tell you. Ours asks every AI to check whether it can publish before promising anything, and to say so plainly if it cannot. If yours says something like “I can build your website, but I can’t send it to DashPloy from this chat”, it is working correctly — it is just in the wrong kind of window.
There are three kinds of window, and the middle one surprises everybody:
- An AI that runs on your computer. It can see your files and it can reach us, so pasting the line is the whole job.
- A chat app with DashPloy added to it. Nothing gets installed. The assistant writes your website in the conversation and publishes it from there. If you have never used a terminal, this is the easiest path there is.
- A plain chat in a browser tab. It will write you a complete website and it cannot send it here. Keep what it wrote — it is not wasted.
