For freelancers and new web designers
Start a web design business, without the tech.
Starting out, it's easy to get stuck on the technical side: hosting, domains, broken forms, late-night fixes. RBO Build takes care of that. Make the websites with Claude, ChatGPT or our templates; you look after your clients, set your own prices and keep your brand in front.
From enquiry to paying client
The whole job, in one place.
Invite your client
They fill in your onboarding questions: their business, services, photos, their own texts and three websites they like.
Make the website
Upload one you made with Claude, ChatGPT or any tool, or start from a template with their details already in it.
Check, refine, publish
Send your client the preview link, make their changes on the page, publish and connect their domain.
Get paid every month
Set up their payment in your dashboard. They pay by card in their dashboard; the money goes to your Stripe.
Why it works for freelancers
Spend your time on clients, not code.
Online in minutes
Upload a folder or a zip and it's on a private preview straight away, exactly as you made it.
A dashboard for each client
Clients answer your onboarding form, keep their opening hours and details up to date, and read their enquiries. You choose what they can do.
Your brand, not ours
Your name, logo and colour on the client dashboard and in every email your clients get.
Get paid through Stripe
One-time, monthly or yearly payments per client, from your own Stripe account. Receipts included.
Upkeep handled
Hosting, the secure padlock, health checks and versions. Fix a problem before the client notices.
Clients can't break it
They change details and read enquiries; design and publishing stay with you.
The numbers
A simple way to earn every month.
An example, not a promise
Say you charge each client US$79 a month for their website. On the Starter plan (US$69 a month for 3 websites, US$23 each), three clients bring in US$237 a month, and you keep US$168 of it before tax. What you charge is always up to you.

Questions
Good to know.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. Make websites with an AI like Claude or ChatGPT and upload them, or start from one of our templates. Change words, photos, fonts and colours by clicking on the page. If you do code, you can download any website's files.
Who owns the client's website?
You and your client do. Their domain stays theirs, and you can download the files at any time.
How do I charge my clients?
However you like. Many people charge a set-up fee and then a monthly fee. You can collect payments inside RBO Build through your own Stripe account (one-time, monthly or yearly), and the money goes straight to you.
Will my clients see RBO Build?
Not if you don't want them to. Switch on your own name, logo and colour, and the client dashboard and the emails they get carry your brand.
What if I get more clients than my plan includes?
Add extra websites for a monthly price that gets lower on bigger plans, or move up a plan when it pays.
Your first client is closer than you think.
Sign up, try it on your own business or a friend's, then invite your first client. Questions first? Book a demo.
