How AI Works

PlayCode AI guides you from idea to published website. Like having an agency hold your hand through the entire process: clarify your vision, build step by step, publish and iterate.

From Idea to Published Website

People come to PlayCode for the result: a working website. The AI guides you through every step of getting there:

1. Clarify your vision - AI asks the right questions to understand what you really want
2. Build piece by piece - Watch the AI create your website step by step
3. Publish and iterate - Ship with one click, then improve with AI help

Step 1: Clarify Your Vision

Start with just an idea. It does not need to be perfect or detailed. The AI asks clarifying questions to understand what you really want:

• "What kind of website is this?" - Landing page, portfolio, web app?
• "Who is it for?" - Your target audience
• "What features do you need?" - Contact form, pricing table, gallery?
• "What style do you prefer?" - Minimal, bold, professional?

Your vague idea becomes a clear vision. You can click options to answer quickly, write custom responses, or skip questions you are not sure about yet.

Step 2: Build Piece by Piece

Once the AI understands your vision, it builds your website step by step. Watch the code appear in real-time as the AI works.

What happens during building:

• AI creates a plan for complex tasks
• Code streams character-by-character as the AI writes
• Preview updates instantly so you see progress
• You can change direction anytime - just tell the AI

Tip: You do not need to understand the code. Focus on the result in the preview. If something does not look right, just tell the AI what to change.

Step 3: Publish and Iterate

When your website looks good, publish it with one click. But that is not the end - the AI stays with you as your website evolves.

• One-click publish - Get a live URL instantly
• Custom domains - Connect your own domain
• Get feedback - Share with others and collect input
• Iterate with AI - Ask for changes, add features, fix issues

Your website grows and improves over time. Each conversation with the AI builds on what came before.

The AI Adapts to Your Needs

The AI automatically adjusts its approach based on what you need:

• Vague requests - AI asks clarifying questions first
• Complex tasks - AI creates a plan before building
• Clear requests - AI acts immediately
• Questions - AI explains without making changes

No mode switching required. Just describe what you want and the AI figures out the best approach.

Tips for Best Results

• Start with the outcome - Describe what you want to achieve, not how to build it
• Let the AI ask questions - If you are not sure about details, let the AI guide you with questions
• Build incrementally - Start simple and add features one at a time
• Give feedback - Tell the AI what you like and what to change
• Publish early - Get something live, then iterate based on real feedback

Example Journey

You: "I want to build a website for my photography business"

AI asks:

• "What kind of photography? Wedding, portrait, commercial?"
• "Do you need a booking system or just a contact form?"
• "What style? Minimal gallery-focused or more content-rich?"

You answer, then AI:

• Creates a plan for your portfolio site
• Builds the hero section with your style
• Adds a gallery component for your photos
• Creates a contact form
• Styles everything to match your brand

You publish, get feedback, then: "Can you add a pricing page?"

The AI adds it. Your website evolves with your business.
