Start a free trial of Hostinger AI Builder to build and preview a website or web application before purchasing a plan. The trial lasts 7 days and includes 250 complimentary AI credits if you choose agentic mode. You can start the trial from the Hostinger AI Builder page or from a ready-made website template.
Start the Hostinger AI Builder free trial from the AI Builder page
During the Black Friday period, the Hostinger AI Builder page doesn’t offer a free trial. Start the free trial from a website template on the Hostinger templates page instead. The free trial doesn’t start from the Websites section of Hostinger dashboard.
- Navigate to the official Hostinger AI Builder page.
- Enter a description of your web application idea in the prompt field, either by typing or using voice input. For optimal results, use 2–5 sentences detailing the purpose, desired features, and target audience of the application.
- Click Start for free once your description is entered. The button stays inactive until a description is entered either by typing or using voice input. If your initial prompt clearly describes something suited to agentic mode, Hostinger AI Builder may route you there directly during setup.
- Log in to your existing Hostinger account or create a new one.
- Select Manual for drag-and-drop editing, or Agentic to shape and customize your site through a conversation with AI. Agentic mode uses AI credits.
- On the next screen, describe your website or business in the text box. Click one of the suggested prompts, such as Create a business website or Launch an appointments website, if you’re not sure what to write, or scroll down to pick a ready-made template instead. You can also speak your initial prompt instead of typing it, using the microphone icon on the prompt screen.
Your free trial begins once you confirm your selection, and the interface displays your initial AI-generated website or web application. The trial lasts 7 days.

Start the Hostinger AI Builder free trial from a website template
Start the Hostinger AI Builder free trial from a ready-made website template on the Hostinger templates page. Starting from a template also works during the Black Friday period, when the Hostinger AI Builder page doesn’t offer a free trial.

- Click Use template.
Refine your web application during the Hostinger AI Builder free trial
