From landing page to web app on the same hire

Macaly-class platforms promise sites and apps in one chat. WebsiteKit keeps one AI developer employee as you grow from brochure to tools — same desk, same stack.

Competitors in the “chat → site → app” lane sell the dream of one prompt forever. The hard part is not the first homepage — it is keeping a real stack, auth, data, and publish discipline when the product grows.

WebsiteKit is honest about the path: sites first on an opinionated TanStack Start + self-hosted Convex stack, with an AI developer who already has coding tools on your private computer. Later versions push the same hire into web apps and internal tools — not a second product you re-buy.

That is why the landing page leads with the developer, not a template gallery. Rails without a builder leave you hiring someone anyway.
