Thirteen websites, generated from thirteen short paragraphs, in roughly half an hour each.
Foreword
We started with a question: can a small business website be both calmer and more crafted than what an agency delivers, at one-tenth the cost?
The plates that follow are our answer. Each was generated from a single short paragraph — the kind of brief any small business owner could write at a quiet moment in the day. Different shops, different registers, the same service.
— Chris Painter, Founder · 7 May 2026

A gastropub housed in an 18th-century coaching inn in Lewes. The brief asked for warm and contemplative, with a seasonal menu that changes weekly, a small journal of menu notes, and a private-dining enquiry form. Generated from a paragraph that opened with “a place that listens to its 250-year-old bones”; twenty-four minutes from brief to live.
