Make a website with Claude
Overview
Not open to everyone yet. Right now only the ArchFoundry team can make websites this way. This page says how it works once it opens.
Ask Claude for a website, and ArchFoundry puts it live at its own address, an address like rosas-bakery.sites.archfoundry.ai. It can include a contact form that emails you.
When you first connect, ArchFoundry asks only for your email, or you can use Continue with Google. Your site goes live as soon as Claude publishes it. If you used only your email, we then email you a link: open it within 7 days to confirm your email, or the site turns off. Messages from your site's form wait until you confirm. No email? Check spam, or write to support@archfoundry.ai.
Prerequisites
- An email address or a Google account.
- claude.ai on a computer.
On the Free plan you can add one custom connector. If you already have one, remove it first. To check, look at your list under Connectors.
On a Team plan, only an Owner can add connectors. Ask an Owner, or use a personal Claude account.
Steps
- On a computer, open claude.ai, then Customize, then Connectors.
- Click Add, then Add custom connector. Name it ArchFoundry, paste
https://app.archfoundry.ai/mcpunder MCP server URL and click Continue. - A new window opens. Type your email or click Continue with Google, then click Allow.
- In a chat, ask Claude for a website.
Coming soon: ArchFoundry in Claude's Directory, listed as Archie by ArchFoundry, so you can add it without the address. When it is listed:
- In Connectors, search for "Archie by ArchFoundry".
- Click Connect, then sign in as in step 3.
Until then, pasting the address is the way in.
Example
Ask Claude for a small site with a contact form.
Make me a one-page website for Rosa's Bakery,
with our opening hours and a contact form.
Publish it with ArchFoundry.Expected result: Claude tells you the name it will use, publishes the site, and gives you its address, such as https://rosas-bakery.sites.archfoundry.ai. Reply with another name if you want one.
