Ferns vs Squarespace
The best Squarespace alternative for AI website building
Beautiful sites without the $200/yr price tag.
What is Squarespace?
Squarespace is known for beautiful templates and polished design. But you're still spending hours customizing, and their pricing starts at $16/mo with limited features.
Common Squarespace frustrations
- Hours customizing templates that still look like everyone else's
- Starts at $16/mo, but business features require $33/mo+

- Slow editor — every change requires a page reload
Why teams switch to Ferns
- AI generates a unique design for your specific business
- Free tier with 3 generations/month — no credit card needed
- Pro at $20/mo includes custom domains, leads, and analytics
- Site is live in 60 seconds, not 6 hours
The verdict
Squarespace makes beautiful sites if you have time. Ferns makes beautiful sites if you don't.
