Create sites with just a prompt

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We are building Makeasite, a tool that lets anyone create a website simply by describing what they want in a prompt. You type what you want your site to be, and it generates the website instantly. When you're done, you can share it with one click. This removes the need to code, design, or hire someone for a website, especially for people who just want a website without the hassle.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in New York, NY and the company would be based there after YC as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We're based in New York because that's where we live and work. We know the local startup community and have built initial users here. Continuing here after YC makes sense because we are established and productive in this environment.

Is this the real Makeasite YC application?

No. Y Combinator keeps submitted applications private. This is a reconstruction: the real YC form questions, answered from Makeasite's public data (launch notes, founder backgrounds, product description). It shows how a company like Makeasite would present itself to YC, not the text they submitted.
