Ginta vs B12
Ginta vs B12: which AI website builder is better for a small business?
B12 and Ginta both build a website with AI and both have a free plan that publishes. B12 leans toward service firms that want client tools (payments, invoicing, and integrations like Calendly) on its paid plans. Ginta keeps the business parts inside the website, on every plan: booking, a shop, events and quote requests, with card payments into your own Stripe account even on the free plan, and Claude or ChatGPT can build and change it for you.
If you're a consultancy that wants invoicing and a client engagement suite next to the site, look at B12. If you want booking and payments on the website itself, starting free, or you build with your own AI assistant, look at Ginta.
