Site Builder is a visual website builder inside Pilot. Create, edit, and publish websites for ACME Creative Agency — no coding required. Your site at acme-creative.air4.media is built and managed entirely from here.
Key Features
- Simple Mode: Chat with AI to build and edit your site in plain language — "Add a testimonials section" or "Change the hero headline" — preview updates instantly
- Advanced Mode: Five specialized tabs — Explorer (card grid), Chart (flowchart with mini-map), Design, Modules, and Menus — for full control over every detail
- Draft & Live environments: Edit freely in Draft without touching your live site; click Go Live to publish everything at once
- Version history: Click the camera icon to save a snapshot at any point; restore any previous version to roll back
- AI site generation: Enter your business details, browse generated design variations, choose Claude or GPT, and let AI build your full site
- Design Editor: Set brand colors, fonts, logos, social links, form styles, and custom CSS — all pages inherit your settings automatically
- Modules: Toggle on AirBlog, AirShop, AirPortal (client portal), AirChat, AirBook, AirForms, and more — each gets its own URL path and theme
- Menus Editor: Build named menus, add pages or custom links, drag to reorder, and assign to Top Bar, Sidebar, or Footer locations
How to Use
- Open Site Builder — you land in Simple Mode with a chat panel and live preview side by side
- To build with AI, click Build with AI: enter your company name, industry, brand colors, and service description; optionally paste reference site URLs for design inspiration; select Claude or GPT
- Browse the generated design variations, click Try Another Design for fresh options, then click Build My Site to generate all pages and content
- Switch to Advanced Mode to fine-tune: open Design to configure colors, fonts, and logos; Modules to enable features; Menus to set up navigation
- In Explorer or Chart, right-click any page to edit, duplicate, add a child, preview, publish/unpublish, or delete; drag pages in Chart to reorder the site hierarchy
- Use More Actions to scaffold a starter structure, apply a template, generate a sitemap, import from a live URL, or browse version history
- Click Go Live to push your full draft live, or right-click individual pages to publish them one at a time
Tips
- Use Simple Mode to build quickly with AI, then switch to Advanced for fine-tuning
- Set your Design tokens first — colors and fonts apply site-wide, so you only need to configure them once
- Save your finished design as a template to reuse it on future sites
- AirPortal supports three hosting modes: Starter (air4.media-hosted), Business (your domain/portal path), and Enterprise (fully custom domain) — configure in the Modules tab
- After enabling or disabling modules, click Apply Rewrite Rules to activate the updated URL routing instantly
- The AirPortal module lets your clients — like those ACME Creative Agency serves — log in to view invoices, projects, contracts, and documents in one place
- Your AI credit balance is shown before every AI action; page edits cost 2–3 credits, and a full AI site build costs 27 credits total
