AI website builder + small-business suite
Durable turns three answers into a hosted service-business site with a CRM, bookings and invoicing built in. Ever Works researches the topic, writes the researched content, generates the site from a template repository you own, and keeps it improving on a schedule — content and code in your Git.
Durable is the fastest path we found for a local service business to get online: it advertises a hosted, mobile-ready site with copy, images and SEO tags from three questions in about thirty seconds. Around that site it bundles the back office a solo operator would otherwise stitch together — a CRM, bookings with calendar sync and prepayment, payments and invoicing, an AI blog, and a dashboard that tracks how visible the business is on Google and in AI answer engines — on flat, predictable plans with a genuinely useful free tier. Ever Works is built for a different outcome: it researches the topic and writes the researched content — item data, categories and descriptions, which for a directory or list site is the whole product, while marketing copy is worked in the repository by your Agents — then generates the site from a template repository you own, deploys it, and keeps improving it on a schedule, with content and code committed to your Git and an open-source runtime you can self-host. Durable runs a service business from one dashboard; Ever Works runs a portfolio of content-rich sites from one goal. If you need a site and a booking button by tonight, Durable is hard to beat; if you want the research, the writing and the upkeep done for you on code you own, that is what Ever Works does.
Durable writes your site copy from three answers about the business and its industry, and blog posts are metered per month and generated from prompts about the business rather than from researched, cited sources. Ever Works runs a research pipeline as its primary output: it studies the topic, discovers and validates sources, deduplicates, classifies and writes the entries. For directories, list sites and comparison pages that research is the whole product today; for a marketing site, the template ships the pages and the copy is worked in the repository by your Agents rather than generated from an industry template.
Durable’s agents live in its dashboard: they answer inquiries, draft review replies and generate a capped number of posts, but nothing re-researches or refreshes the pages you already published. Ever Works re-runs its research pipeline on seven cadences from hourly to monthly, with retries and automatic pausing on repeated failure, and its Agents open pull requests against the site’s content and code — checked by quality gates and a merge policy before anything lands.
Durable is a hosted appliance. There is no site or code export, no source-file access and no self-hosting; custom code is a site-wide head or body snippet, and beyond a CSV of your contacts the content stays in the platform. Ever Works commits content and code to repositories in your own Git account, clones the template repository into your account so you can change anything, and the runtime is open source under AGPLv3 with no paid feature tier — run it on Docker, Kubernetes or your own machine, with your choice of AI provider, including local models.
Durable lets you add several businesses to one account, each with its own site, dashboard, contacts and invoices up to a plan cap — and each one is set up and maintained by hand. Ever Works has Missions that propose Ideas that become Works, staffed by named Agents with budgets and schedules, so one goal grows into many self-maintaining sites. Store and Company builders are coming soon on the same model.
