You’ve got the model. You’ve got the pitch deck. You’ve got the buzzwords.
But without a clear, credible website, you don’t have traction.
For AI founders, your website isn’t just a brochure—it’s proof you’re real, competent, and worth backing.
Why Your Website Matters More in AI
-
Investors Google First. Before funding, they check your site. If it looks rushed, you look unready.
-
Users Judge Instantly. AI is crowded. A clean, direct site separates you from hype.
-
Trust is Everything. You’re asking people to trust invisible algorithms. Your site is the handshake.
What Every AI Founder Website Needs
1.Clear Value Prop (Above the Fold)
No jargon. No buzzword salad.
One sentence that answers: What problem do you solve?
2.Proof You’re Legit
-
Logos of partners, pilots, or accelerators.
-
Early customer testimonials (or even pilot case studies).
-
Founder credentials.
3.Product Snapshots
Show the actual interface or workflow. Even if it’s an early prototype, transparency builds credibility.
4.Simple Pricing or CTA
You don’t need a complex pricing table. One clear call: Join the waitlist, Book a demo, or Start free.
5.Thought Leadership Hook
AI founders win by showing intelligence. Publish one strong article, whitepaper, or blog (like this one) to position yourself as more than another AI startup.
Mistakes to Avoid
-
Overloaded Menus. Keep it simple—Home, Product, Story, Contact.
-
Generic Templates. Your brand matters. A site that looks like 500 others signals “me-too.”
-
Waiting for Perfection. Launch lean. Refine later.
