The Hostinger AI Builder agentic mode editor is divided into a few functional areas to help you manage and refine your project.

Sidebar menu

Click on the ≡ icon to access your website management tools.

  • AI credits: Displays your remaining and total credits for the current cycle.
  • AI credits usage: Provides a detailed graph of credit consumption over the last 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days.

Chat area

Review your previous prompts and responses. After each AI output, you can find the following options.

  • Reply to specific text: Select any text within an AI response and click Reply to attach it to your next message. The AI then knows exactly which part you’re referring to, without needing to copy, paste, or describe it.
  • Quick-select answers: When Hostinger AI Builder asks a clarifying question, you may see clickable answer options instead of typing a full response. Depending on the question, you can select a single option, select multiple options, or write your own answer.
  • Provide feedback: Rate the message to improve future responses.
  • Credit usage: This icon shows whether AI credits were used for a specific response. Hover on it for details.
  • Undo/Restore: Reverts the code changes from a specific message. If no actions were taken, the restore button will not be displayed.

  • When a response modifies multiple files, each file appears as a separate Code changes entry with its own Restore button, so you can revert an individual file’s changes without reverting the entire message.
  • On desktop, you can resize the chat panel by dragging its edge. Your preferred width is saved and stays the same after a reload. Drag the handle all the way to one side to hide the panel, or double-click it to reset to the default size.

Prompt area

This is where you communicate with the AI. Enter text or use voice-to-text via the microphone icon. You can also find the following tools:

  1. Image icon: upload a reference image.
  2. Select and edit: Use this tool to click one or more elements on your website — drag or Shift+click to select multiple — then either edit them manually (text formatting, images) or type instructions for AI to apply changes only to the selected elements. You can also attach reference images to your annotation for AI to use, such as a photo you want applied as a background. Supported formats are JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, AVIF, and ICO, with a maximum of 10 images per session and 15 MB per image. This uses AI credits, the same as other Select and edit changes.
