About Ycode

Ycode is an open-source Webflow alternative that lets you build websites visually and work with AI agents on design and content management. Natural-language prompts can update layouts, spacing, styles, and responsive behavior; conversations can also create CMS collections, add fields, and organize structured data. The platform supports Anthropic Claude, OpenAI ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and xAI Grok models. Unlike Webflow, your site is not tied to a single platform: you can self-host with full control of the code and infrastructure, modify and extend it as your needs grow, or choose the official fully managed cloud service for automatic updates, maintenance, and global CDN acceleration.
