The description on their page doesn't read like AI to me. Especially given that they classify things like this as AI: "Setting up shop online is too much work with all the management, databases, checkouts and security. Our AI removes the need for plugins, configuration and constant stress. Have a product, add a price and a shopping cart magically appears on your site. Just like that, just as it should be!"

All in all, it looks more like a blogging platform with templates that adapt to your content than actual AI.

EDIT: "The Grid" is the company behind the NoFlo flow programming tool... based upon their GitHub repos it looks like they reimplemented Jekyll using NoFlo and are using that + their adaptive templates to power the app. An interesting approach.

AI is such an abused word that no one really knows what it is supposed to mean. Probably "automation" or "soft computing" are more accurate, but lack the cool factor.

> "Yes. You can purchase as many accounts as you want and gift them should you choose. (Hint: If you're clever, you'll use your referral link to purchase three accounts and get a fourth one free!)"

Admin can you please strip the referral from the URL (#1849)

OK, this is a cool idea and I really like the pitch. My one criticism is that featuring several shots of a "Made in Palm Springs" site that features the Brooklyn Bridge seems like a non-sequiter.
