What It Is
You build websites for plumbers, dentists, gyms and other local businesses that have a poor site or only a Facebook page, using Claude to code the site and an AI media tool connected to it to generate images and motion video and place them automatically. You show prospects a working draft of their own site before asking them to pay.
The Pitch
The hosts suggest charging $750-1,000 per build, undercutting typical agency prices, and say a ready-made site is far easier to sell than an idea.
Who It’s Best For
Someone with basic design sense who is comfortable pitching local business owners.
The Truth (as we see it)
Building a site with AI is now quick, but clients still need domains, hosting, edits and ongoing support, which the video doesn't cover. Generated photos shouldn't misrepresent a real business's premises or staff. The pricing is the hosts' suggestion. The video is published by Higgsfield, the AI video tool used throughout, with Iman Gadzhi, who is an investor and advisor in the company and sells business courses, so it doubles as product marketing.
