Ginta vs Durable
Ginta vs Durable: which is better for a small business website?
Durable and Ginta both build a small-business website with AI in about a minute. Durable wraps the website in a business toolkit: a CRM, invoices, bookings and AI helpers for leads and reviews. Ginta focuses on the website: it publishes on the free plan, you change it by asking, and Claude or ChatGPT can build and publish it for you.
If you want one place for customers, invoices and the website, Durable is the better fit. If you want a well-made site that's live for free first, with your own domain from €5 a month, look at Ginta.

When to pick Durable
- You want a business back office. Durable puts the website next to a CRM, bookings, invoices with payment reminders, and AI agents that help with leads and Google reviews.
- You want a domain included. Durable's paid plans include a domain (up to $20 on Launch). Ginta sells domains too (€29 a year), but none comes free with a plan.
- You'd like to place things yourself after the AI is done. Durable has an editor for that; Ginta has none.
- Scale and track record. Durable says more than 3,000,000 businesses have been built on it.
When to pick Ginta
- You want the site public before you pay. Ginta's free plan publishes up to 20 websites at name.ginta.page; Durable's free plan is a private preview.
- Every message by email. Contact form messages are emailed to you on every plan and kept in your Ginta inbox.
- You build with Claude or ChatGPT. Ginta's MCP server lets your own assistant design, publish and change the site, using no Ginta credits. We found nothing like it on Durable's pages.
- A lower price for your own domain. €5 a month on Hosting (your own AI) or €19 on Light (Ginta's AI, 150 credits a month), billed monthly.
- A helper keeps it up to date. They sign in at yoursite.com/admin to read messages and change the menu or bookings, with no Ginta account.
