Getting started with Repaint

Last updated June 3, 2026


To get started, visit repaint.com. From there you can sign up and start building a website.

What you need to use Repaint

You don't need to prepare anything to use Repaint. It can build websites from scratch, based on nothing but prompts. However, it works best if you provide references for content and style.

The best starting point is an existing website. With a website URL, Repaint can scrape it, learn about the business, download the content, and create a whole new website that's close to what you need. See how to import websites from other platforms.

If you don't have an existing website, you can also provide code samples, screenshots, reviews, images, pdfs, or other websites as style references. Or you can just give it your business name and see what it can find online.

How to get started

  1. Sign up. Create a free account at repaint.com.
  2. Share your content. Paste your existing site URL, or share other context to help Repaint build your new site.
  3. Plan your site. Before it starts generating, Repaint interviews you to learn your preferences. It can follow complex instructions and customize the website to fit your needs.
  4. Generate your website. Wait while Repaint builds your site. This regularly takes 2-10 minutes; it varies depending on how complex the site is.
  5. Edit your website with AI. Instruct the AI to fix anything that looks off. You can add, change, or remove anything on the site just by asking.
  6. Publish. Click publish to put your site online at a free sites.repaint.com address.
  7. Connect a custom domain. Optional. Once your site is live, you can connect a custom domain on a paid plan.

Tips for getting better results

  1. Give Repaint design direction. Working with Repaint is like working with a designer. It will do most of the design work, but it needs direction to truly fit your vision. Share colors, mood, and any references to help it design your site.
  2. Bring references and context. Repaint needs context in order to make something custom. The more you share, the better the result will be. Images, screenshots, and PDFs all work as references. Without unique context about your business, the website may end up looking generic.
  3. Edit the first draft before judging it. Repaint regularly makes mistakes, like unreadable text or broken animations. But most issues can be fixed in seconds with a single prompt. So before judging the first draft too harshly, make a few edits to fix any glaring problems and improve the style.
