Website builder comparison
Website builders compared, on the same rules.
Compare website builders by workflow, features and pricing. Follow the source links for each platform and check the plan and region you need.
Free plan available. No credit card required.
How these pages are written
The rules we set before writing any of them.
The comparisons focus on product capabilities, published plan details and the workflows each platform supports. Source links are included so you can check the details.
Every claim about another platform is sourced
It comes from that company's own published pages, not from a review site and not from memory. Quoted text is theirs.
Capability, not adjectives
A table of what each platform does. No screenshots of somebody else's product with a red circle drawn on it, and no frustrations invented on your behalf.
We say when to choose them
Every comparison names the one case where the other platform is the better buy. It is a real case, stated once, and then the page gets on with what Mondovo does.
Where we could not confirm a figure, we leave it out
Some prices vary by region, tax and billing term. Where no figure is listed, follow the platform’s pricing link for the applicable amount.
Side by side
What each one does.
Every cell about another platform is taken from that company's own published pages. Quoted text is theirs.
A dash means we could not confirm it from their own published pages, so we make no claim either way.

The table covers selected capabilities from each platform’s published documentation. Lovable, v0, Durable and 10Web are compared separately because their products differ.
Price shapes
These price lists are not the same shape.
Compare the plan, add-ons and number of live client sites you need. Per-site and per-account subscriptions can produce different totals as your agency grows.
Mondovo
$20 per live site per month
One live site is included in the first $20, and each extra live site is another $20. Drafts, pages, visitors and form submissions are not billed. White-label, API access and the outreach tools are a $99 a month add-on, flat, whatever your client count.
WordPress
$4 to $45 per site per month, plus your time
WordPress.com's published plans, billed annually: Personal $4, Premium $8, Business $25, Commerce $45. Self-hosted WordPress is free software, so the invoice is hosting and the unbilled cost is whoever keeps it patched.
Wix
Per site
A free plan plus Light, Core, Business and Business Elite. Wix's own note reads: "Prices and currency vary by location. USD prices displayed for reference only." The page served us figures with local tax already added, so we quote none.
Squarespace
Per site
Squarespace charges separately for each site. Choose a plan based on the features and billing term you need, and check the linked pricing page for your region.
Webflow
A Site plan per site, plus a Workspace plan
Site plans: Starter free, Basic $15, Premium $25 a month billed yearly — "All prices in USD, per site, per month." Workspace plans are separate: Starter free, Core $19, Growth $49. Seats beyond the owner's are "a separate fee".
Duda
$19 to $149 per account per month
Basic $19, Team $29, Agency $52, White Label $149, billed annually. Basic and Team include one published site, Agency and White Label include four, and extras are $17 to $19 a month. "Prices are in USD and apply per account."
HighLevel
$97 to $497 per agency per month
Starter $97 with 3 sub-accounts. Unlimited $297 with unlimited sub-accounts. Agency Pro $497, which adds SaaS Mode and automated sub-account creation. Enterprise is quoted.
Five live client sites: $100 a month here, against $297 for HighLevel's Unlimited plan. Forty live client sites: $800 here, against $497 for Agency Pro. White-labelled, Duda's White Label plan is cheaper than $20 a site plus our $99 add-on from about three sites onward. Count your live sites before you read anything else on this page.
Comparisons and guides
Read the one you are actually deciding between.
Each page sets out the capability difference, quotes each platform's own pages, and names the case where the other option is the right answer. The guides compare other platforms with each other.
For the record
What Mondovo is, in plain terms.
So you can weigh it against the others without having to decode a slogan first.
It starts from a brief, a PDF or an address
Describe the business, upload the scope document, or paste the site the client already has. A redesign keeps the existing pages and content and rebuilds the design. A WordPress site brings its pages and posts across.
It generates three complete designs at a time
All three are built from one content plan you approved, so the words and the page structure stay fixed and only the design changes. Up to ten designs can live on a site, and the live one is a switch.
It carries a review link
Your client opens it on desktop or mobile, clicks an element on the page and leaves a note against it, or approves. Putting your agency's name on that link is part of the $99 a month Agency add-on.
It keeps working after launch
Enquiry inbox and CRM, website chat, forms with no third-party embeds, per-page SEO, version history, and static pages served from a global network. Posts, emails and follow-ups are drafted for you to approve, and Creative Studio makes images, short videos and logos in the site's colours. There is also an MCP connector, so the whole workflow runs from Claude or ChatGPT.
Real output
Three designs from one brief. Shown twice.
The top row shows a restaurant brief in three directions; the bottom row shows a plumbing company. Within each row, the designs share the approved content plan. These are demonstration sites generated with Mondovo.
About this comparison
Questions about the questions.
Where do the comparison details come from?
The tables link to published product and pricing information from each platform. Follow those sources to check the current details for the plan and region you need.
Why are some cells empty?
A blank cell means no confirmed value is listed here. Follow the linked product documentation for the current feature details.
Why do two of the pages quote no competitor price?
Some platform prices vary by region, tax and billing term. Follow the linked pricing page to check the current amount for the plan you need.
How should I check current prices and features?
Follow the source links for the plan and market you are considering. Prices and features can change, so confirm them before choosing.
Why are the AI site builders one page rather than a column?
Because Lovable, v0, Durable and 10Web are four different products and a single averaged cell would have been wrong about all four. Two of them describe themselves as building applications; one is aimed at the business owner rather than the agency; one builds WordPress sites. Each gets its own card, in its own words, with its own link.
Trade marks named on this page belong to their owners. They are used here to identify the products being compared, and nothing on this page implies any relationship with or endorsement by them.
The cheapest way to settle it
Build one and look at it.
Drafts cost nothing, so you can put a real client brief through this and compare the output against whatever else you are considering, before you pay anyone.
