I Created an Online Store with Squarespace Blueprint AI: Here’s How it Works

Articles Ecommerce

I’ll be honest, I’ve built my fair share of websites over the years – both for myself, and for clients. Over about a decade now, I’ve probably used virtually every easy website builder solution you can think of – Wix, Shopify – you name it.

Lately, I’ve experimented a lot with various AI-powered website builders – and I have to say, many are pretty impressive.

There’s no “wish list” feature, the inventory management tools are very basic, and Squarespace doesn’t even have its own dedicated payment processor (though it integrates with others).
