Hey PH, Michael here, CEO of Leadpages.

I've been building with Claude every day for the last few months. Not just landing pages. Full sites, blogs, e-commerce stores, interactive tools, games. Last week I went from an idea to a live, functioning site in a single conversation. No designer, no developer, no hosting config. Just a description of what I wanted and a URL at the end.

That's what HTMLPub does. Your AI builds it, HTMLPub puts it on the internet, and when you want to change something tomorrow, you pick up the same conversation. The AI manages the whole thing. Pages, content updates, new sections, new pages. It's not a deploy step. It's an ongoing relationship between your AI and your live site.

We built an MCP server that works with Claude, ChatGPT, n8n, Make, and anything that supports MCP. There's also an API for automation workflows and direct upload at htmlpub.com.

What people are building today:
→ Full sites with blogs and content pages
→ E-commerce stores and product catalogs
→ Landing pages and campaign microsites
→ Interactive tools, games, and dashboards
→ Portfolios and project showcases

Every plan includes the MCP connector, AI credits, analytics, form collection with a submissions dashboard, and asset management. Paid plans add custom domains, custom slugs, CSV exports, and pages that stay live permanently. Pro gets you heatmaps, API access, and 5 custom domains.

Free: 5 pages, no credit card, pages expire after 7 days. Starter: $10/mo, 50 pages, 1 custom domain. Pro: $25/mo, 250 pages, 5 domains, heatmaps, API access.

We've been in the landing page business for 12 years. HTMLPub is our bet on what comes next. It's early. I'd rather ship and hear what you need than sit on it for three more months.

What are you building with AI right now? Hit me in the comments.

@michaelsaccaĀ I'm a long time leadpages customers. I've been building the sales pages in Claude and then transferring them to my leadpages account. Claude was extremely helpful with the copy/design layout. Can we automatically publish to our leadpages account from HTML?

Pete Callaghan

Love the MCP angle on this. Congrats on launching!

Omar Farook

@petecallaghansĀ Thanks Pete! We figured since people live in their LLM these days, we should empower them without leaving the chat. We're already dogfooding ourselves, take it for a spin and let us know what you think!

Michael Sacca

@petecallaghansĀ Thanks Pete! Let us know how you get on šŸ™Œ

Eric Komo

@petecallaghansĀ MCP was the thing that made this feel inevitable to us. Once AI can own the full loop (build it, publish it, update it) without ever handing off to a human, the whole workflow changes. Promoly looks interesting by the way, would love to know if you see a use case where audio promo + a live landing page could work together here.

Tobyn Sowden

Congratulations to the Leadpages team! This is an incredible product just in time for a great market need.

Yvonne Chow

@tobynsĀ thank you for the support and encouragement!

Eric Komo

@tobynsĀ Thanks so much! Timing felt right for us too. Curious what you're working on right now - is there a specific use case you're thinking about?

Instantly publishing arbitrary HTML/JS to public URLs raises tough trust and abuse questions. What guardrails did you build (rate limits, malware/spam prevention, isolation/sandboxing, takedowns), and how do you balance that with keeping the workflow frictionless?
Michael Sacca

@curiouskittyĀ This was a real problem for us early on. We originally ran on Railway and had to do a full migration to GCP after dealing with crypto miners and phishing pages abusing the platform. So the guardrails came from lived experience, not a checklist.

Here's what's in place:
Structural constraints: Free pages expire after 7 days and cap at 5. Paid tiers cap at 50/250 pages. Scaling abuse requires paying for multiple accounts, which creates both a cost barrier and an identity trail.

Scanning: We have a robust AI scan in place for published pages for known phishing patterns, malware signatures, and spam indicators. We've been training the model for several months with seed data from our 13 years of experience in the field.

Rate limiting: Yes, at both the account and publish level.

Isolation: Published pages are isolated from each other and from HTMLPub's core infrastructure.

Reporting: There's a flag/report mechanism for takedowns.

On the friction balance:Ā  we deliberately lean toward keeping the publish flow fast for legitimate users. The 7-day auto-expiry on free pages does a lot of the heavy lifting since most abuse content has a short useful lifespan. And having run Leadpages, hosting millions of pages over 12+ years, abuse prevention isn't new territory for us - we're applying patterns we've battle-tested at much larger scale.

Ed Anisko

@curiouskitty Great question. It's a layered system:


Every page is scanned on publish — heuristic pattern matching, Google Safe Browsing for known-bad URLs, IP reputation checks, and an LLM classifier that factors in account age, publishing velocity, and prior violations. High-confidence abuse triggers automatic removal + account suspension. Medium-confidence gets queued for manual review. Pages are periodically re-scanned to catch post-publish changes.


Domain isolation — published pages serve on a separate origin with a strict route allowlist, no access to app APIs. Security headers block eval(), disable device APIs, prevent embedding outside our origins, and serve noindex/nofollow so we can't be used for SEO spam.


Rate limiting across all endpoints, built-in abuse reporting on every page, DMCA workflow, admin review tooling.

All scanning is async — legitimate users publish instantly, never see the machinery. The AI classifier with behavioral signals is what lets us be aggressive on abuse without adding friction for normal use.

I don't know much specifically about HTML Pub but I do know a lot about one of the makers, Omar Farook and he's a great guy who has made some great products. So I'm here to try this one! (Even if I'm certain this going to be over my head 🤣)

Omar Farook

@just_sĀ Thanks Justin! Always great to see you!

I'm confident HTML Pub is not as complex as you might think. Just a few steps to integrate with your favourite AI, like Claude or ChatGPT. Once you're connected you can ask your AI to generate a page, tool, prototype or even a game, and then tell it to make it live via HTML Pub. You'll receive a live link that you can share with the world.

And inside of the platform you can manage all of your published pages, add a custom domain, forms, e-com integrations, blogs, and even connect multiple pages into a full site.

You'll be amazed at how fast you'll be able to launch anything now.

Yvonne Chow

@just_sĀ I hear you on all counts! Omar is amazing, and HTML Pub is incredibly smooth and easy to use - even for non-technical marketers and users (like myself ;)). Let us know if you run into any issues!

Eric Komo

@just_sĀ Omar's the real deal. We're all in good hands trusting his track record. And I promise it's not over your head. Seriously, if you can type "build me a landing page for [thing you actually need]" into Claude, you're 90% of the way there. Give it a shot and let us know what you end up making - would love to see your first publish.

Angela Anna

This could be great for quickly building and sharing prototypes with clients or teammates.

Yvonne Chow

@angelaaaĀ you’re right! Personally I’ve built internal-only pages with HTML Pub because I wanted something more visual to share with my team. We’ve password-protected those pages just in case!

What did you prototype with our product?

Angela Anna

@yvonnechowĀ Really like the focus on speed and simplicity here. Many people just want to quickly publish something online without setting up servers, domains, or hosting accounts. A lightweight tool like this could make launching small projects much faster.

Michael Sacca

@yvonnechowĀ  @angelaaaĀ It can host beautiful presentations that are really easy to maintain with Claude. Here's an example: https://pages.htmlpub.com/p/ip0reoLkJD

Eric Komo

@angelaaaĀ 100%! This is actually one of the use cases we see a lot in early testing. Instead of a Figma link or a Loom, you send a live URL that actually works. Client can click around, fill out a form, see the real thing. And if they want changes, you just go back to the conversation and ask for them. No redesign, no redeploy. What kind of prototypes are you typically building for clients?

Tom

I am so excited for this! The number of html pages I publish through vercel or netlify to share reports with clients is staggering.

Thank you!

Eric Komo

@tomstoolsĀ Tom the client report use case is such a good one. I've used it in similar ways with my team already. Instead of a Vercel deploy per client, per report, per update... you just publish, send the URL, and when the numbers change next week you update it in the same conversation. No new repo, no new deploy, same link. How many of these are you shipping a month? Curious how much time this could actually save you.

Michael Sacca

@tomstoolsĀ Haha, right there with you. We publish a lot too. That's why we wanted to make it lucrative ;)

Let us know how you get on!

Yvonne Chow

@tomstoolsĀ please try HTML Pub out and let us know your experience!

Omar Farook
@tomstools with the Pro Plan, you’ve got plenty for just $25 per month!
Staci Gardiner

Okay, this just solved one of my biggest frustrations as a marketer. I usually know exactly what page I want to build but I’m not a designer or technical enough to bring it to life easily. This could finally close that gap for me. I’m so excited to try it!

Eric Komo

@staci_gardinerĀ Staci this one hit home. Thank you! Marketers are exactly who we built this for. You shouldn't need to know CSS or beg a developer to get a page live. You know what the page needs to do, you know the message, you know the audience. That's the hard part. HTML Pub just handles the rest. Go try it and tell me what your first page is - would love to see what a marketer builds on day one.

Michael Sacca

@staci_gardinerĀ How fast you all were able to move the dozens of paid landing pages over to HTML Pub was impressive!

Yvonne Chow

@staci_gardinerĀ appreciate you Staci - and yes. As a fellow marketer, I am looking forward to the day where we don’t need a comprehensive editor. Just describe and have it built!

When we were building this, I published 15 pages in an hour with distinct messaging and positioning. I can’t imagine doing that 5 years ago.

Nicola Vargiu

Finally found a way to bring all the side projects I had buried in Claude to life. Thank you guys! šŸš€

Michael Sacca

@nicola_vargiuĀ You and us both!

Eric Komo

@nicola_vargiuĀ The Claude graveyard is real! We've all got conversations in there that never saw the light of day. Really glad this is the thing that changes that for you.

Omar Farook
@nicola_vargiuĀ Knowing you Nico, you can finally publish prototypes as real frontend UI!
Cristian Prodius

why don't just connect the Vercel MCP ? actually I just watch until the end your video :) amazing product !!!

Yvonne Chow

@cristian_prodiusĀ love that the video did the talking. Vercel is great if you’re already in a dev workflow, but most people generating pages with AI aren’t deploying to a git repo. We wanted the path from ā€œAI made thisā€ to ā€œit’s live at a URLā€ to be as short as possible. Glad it clicked!

Eric Komo

@cristian_prodiusĀ Haha! Glad you watched to the end! Fair question though. Vercel MCP still assumes you have a repo, a framework, a build step. It's built for apps. HTML Pub is purpose-built for AI-generated HTML - no repo, no config, just a string of HTML in and a live URL out. Plus forms, analytics, and heatmaps are all baked in so you're not stitching together three other tools on top.

Michael Sacca

@cristian_prodiusĀ Glad it resonated! Yes it's far more than just publishing HTML, our fault for calling it just "HTMLPub" - it's a tongue and cheek approach, so we're having fun with it :)
