# Create site from scratch

> How to build a website with AI from scratch using WowWeb. What inputs to provide, how the AI interview works, what happens next.

Site creation is the main action in WowWeb AI. The AI writes your site from scratch, individually for your brand. No templates under the hood, no cookie-cutter engines.

## What you can provide as input

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Text description" icon="pen">
    Multiple messages in a row work fine. The more detail, the less editing later.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Voice input" icon="microphone">
    Hit the mic button and dictate. Useful when there's a lot of context.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Attached photos" icon="image">
    Get embedded as section images. No strict count limit, up to 2 MB each.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Logo" icon="star">
    Goes in the header and as a favicon.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Reference site screenshots" icon="screwdriver-wrench">
    Style references: "I want it like these guys".
  </Card>

  <Card title="PDF and TXT" icon="file">
    Reference data, like a price list.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

<Tip>
  A good description includes: business type, target audience, desired style, needed sections, real data (name, phone, address, prices).
</Tip>

## Simple mode vs Smart mode

Below the input field there's a mode toggle. Choice depends on task complexity.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Simple">
    Fast and cheap. Ideal for landings, business cards, classic one-pagers.

    * Time: \~60 seconds
    * Cost: 30-60 XP
    * Right for: landings, business cards, simple services
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Smart">
    Slower and pricier, but noticeably higher quality on complex tasks: shaped sections, custom typography, custom animations, multi-page sites.

    * Time: \~90-120 seconds
    * Cost: 80-150 XP
    * Right for: premium projects, custom design, multi-page sites
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

## AI interview

After your description, the AI asks 2-4 clarifying questions with preset options: about style, colors, accents. You can skip any question, the AI picks based on its judgment.

<Tip>
  In a hurry? Hit "Use your judgment" on each question. The AI usually nails the style on first try.
</Tip>

## What happens next

After generation, the site automatically builds and publishes on your `*.wowweb.app` subdomain. Takes about 20 seconds after the AI's response. A progress bar keeps you in the loop on every step.

More on the technical details of the process in [How generation works](/en/how-it-works/pipeline).
