What a Claude-coded website is
A Claude-coded website is a business website whose code is drafted by Claude, Anthropic’s AI model, working inside Claude Code under the direction of one of our developers. The output is ordinary source code: PHP and block templates for WordPress, React components for Next.js, or Blade views and controllers for Laravel. There’s no proprietary builder underneath and no lock-in.
It isn’t a drag-and-drop AI site generator, and it isn’t fully automated. A developer writes the brief for every component, reads every file Claude produces, runs the tests and fixes what needs fixing. Design is approved by you before any code is written, and the finished site goes through the same checks as anything we’ve built by hand since 2018.
The difference you’ll notice is time. Repetitive work such as building twelve service page templates, writing schema markup or converting a Figma mockup into responsive CSS gets drafted in minutes, so our developers spend their hours on review, edge cases, speed and accessibility.
How a Claude Code website build runs
- Discovery and content We agree the page list, target keywords and calls to action, and gather or write the copy. Claude works best when real content exists, so this comes first.
- Design mockups, signed off Our designer produces mobile and desktop mockups in Figma for the homepage and key templates. You approve them before a single line of code is written.
- Coded build A developer breaks the design into components and directs Claude Code to build them in the agreed stack. Every change lands in a Git repository, so there’s a full history of who changed what.
- Review and hardening Developers read the code, remove anything unnecessary, check security basics like input sanitizing and escaped output, and test forms end to end.
- Speed, accessibility and SEO checks We test Core Web Vitals in Lighthouse and PageSpeed Insights, run axe and manual keyboard checks against WCAG 2.2 AA, and set titles, headings, schema and internal links.
- Launch and care plan We set up redirects, analytics and Search Console, go live, and monitor the site. A care plan keeps it updated, backed up and watched.
Pick the stack that fits your team
WordPress
Best when your staff will edit pages and publish blog posts themselves. We build a custom block theme so editors get fields and blocks, without page builder bloat. More on WordPress development.
Next.js
Best for speed-sensitive marketing sites and content hubs, paired with a headless CMS like Sanity or WordPress. More on Next.js development.
Laravel
Best when the site needs logins, quoting, bookings or a client portal. More on Laravel development.

Why we build websites this way
Templated themes ship with code for features you’ll never use, and that weight shows up in load times. Fully custom hand-coding avoids the weight but takes longer and costs more. Claude-coded builds sit between the two: custom code written for your design only, produced at a pace closer to a theme.
We use the same approach in our AI workflow automation and Claude AI integration work, where Claude handles drafting and people stay responsible for the result. If you’d rather start from a clean, conventional build with no AI drafting at all, our custom website development service does exactly that.
Questions we get about Claude-coded websites
Is the code written by AI safe to run?
Every file is read by a developer before it ships, and we test forms, logins and user input specifically for security problems. The code lives in Git, so any change can be traced. We treat Claude’s output the way we’d treat a junior developer’s pull request: useful, and always reviewed.
Will Google penalize an AI-coded website?
Google ranks pages on their content and experience, and the code itself is standard HTML, CSS, PHP or JavaScript. A Claude-coded site is technically identical to a hand-coded one. Your copy is written or edited by people and reviewed by you before launch.
Can my team edit the site after launch?
Yes. On WordPress, your team edits through the block editor with custom blocks built for your design. On Next.js, edits happen in a headless CMS. Laravel sites get an admin panel for the content that changes often.
Are you an Anthropic partner?
No. We’re a development company that uses Claude and Claude Code as tools in our build process, the same way we use Figma or GitHub. We have no official partnership with Anthropic.
How is pricing worked out?
Pricing depends on pages, features and stack. Use the website cost calculator for an estimate, or request a free audit and we’ll send a written proposal with a fixed price.
