# choose how to build site pages

Learn all about the different builders inside ivorey and which ones might be best for your business needs.

## before you dive in

ivorey gives you two ways to build your online presence: AI Studio and our drag-and-drop builders. Both can create beautiful websites, landing pages, and funnels with working checkouts, so the right choice comes down to what your project needs and how you like to work. This guide walks you through both, so you can choose with confidence.

what are AI studio and the drag-and-drop builders?

**AI Studio** is your built-in vibe coding studio. You describe what you want in a conversation, and AI builds a fully designed, interactive site, which you can keep refining with prompts or with manual Visual Edits. Please refer to our [AI Studio](https://help.ivorey.io/en/articles/13631371-ai-studio.md) guide for all the details.

**Drag-and-drop builders** are where you build your websites, funnels, blogs, online stores, and webinar funnels, with full manual control. You can start from one of our ready-made templates or from scratch, and use [Website & Funnel AI](https://help.ivorey.io/en/articles/13631388-website-and-funnel-ai.md) inside the builders to generate and edit pages for you.

This guide is perfect if you want to:

-   Choose the best place to build your next website, funnel, store, or project
    
-   Make sure your builder supports what your project needs, such as physical products, a blog or ad tracking
    
-   Understand how AI Studio and the drag-and-drop builders can work together

## choose where to build

Start with what your project needs, as some features are only fully supported in one builder. Then think about how you like to work.

### question 1: what does your project need?

Some projects rely on features that are only fully supported in one builder, so check this before you start.

**Choose AI Studio if your project needs:**

-   **Something interactive** - such as guided journeys, mini-challenges, digital worksheets, or tools your audience can work through
    
-   **Something flexible or custom** - such as complex designs, dashboards, or experiences that go beyond what a drag-and-drop page can do
    

**Choose the drag-and-drop builders if your project needs:**

-   **Physical products** - AI Studio checkouts don't currently offer shipping or pickup options. Please refer to our [Online Stores Master Guide](https://help.ivorey.io/en/articles/11016644-all-about-online-stores-a-master-help-guide.md) to get started
    
-   **A blog** - AI Studio doesn't have a built-in blog manager. Please refer to our [Blogs Master Guide](https://help.ivorey.io/en/articles/10749849-all-about-blogs-a-master-help-guide.md) to get started
    
-   **Reliable conversion tracking for paid ads** - the drag-and-drop builders supports a native Pixel and Conversions API setup, and stores UTMs and Facebook attribution on the contact for your workflows to use. AI Studio only supports tracking through custom code. Please refer to our [Third Party Pixel Tracking](https://help.ivorey.io/en/articles/10469069-third-party-pixel-tracking.md) and [Meta Ads Conversions API Event Tracking](https://help.ivorey.io/en/articles/12263648-meta-ads-conversions-api-event-tracking.md) guides to get started

### question 2: how do you want to build?

If your project could work in either builder, think about how hands-on you want to be with the design.

-   **Choose AI Studio** if you're happy for AI to do all of the building, with more advanced vibe coding and design flexibility, and some manual control
    
-   **Choose the drag-and-drop builders** if you prefer drag-and-drop elements with full editing control, starting from a ready-made template or from scratch, with Website & Funnel AI whenever you want a hand
    
-   **Combine the drag-and-drop builders with Claude** if you want to keep building there, with more design flexibility for specific sections, pages or your full website
    

* * *

## the bottom line

-   **AI Studio** - more advanced AI vibe coding and full design freedom, with some manual control
    
-   **Drag-and-drop builders** - full drag-and-drop control, from a template or from scratch, with AI support whenever you want it
    
-   **Drag-and-drop builders with Claude** - all the features of the drag-and-drop builders, plus custom-coded sections, pages or a full website

## use both together

You don't need to choose one builder for your _whole_ business. Many members build their core website in one and add projects from the other where they fit best.

-   **Link to a blog built in Blogs** from your AI Studio project's navigation menu
    
-   **Add an AI Studio page** to your existing website - paste your website URL into your AI Studio prompt so AI can match its look and feel, then link to the new page from your website
    
-   **Use an AI Studio form on a website or funnel page** - create and connect the form in AI Studio, then copy its embed code into your page in Websites
    
-   **Embed ivorey surveys, quizzes, and review widgets** into an AI Studio project by pasting their embed code into the AI Studio chat

## customise your pages with Claude

If you love the drag-and-drop builders but want a design their elements can't create, Claude can write the code for you, whether that's a single section, a full page, or every page of your website. You paste the code into a custom code element on your page, or into the page's Custom CSS to restyle existing elements, so you get extra design flexibility while keeping features like blogs, checkouts and conversion tracking.

Please refer to our [Customise Your Pages with Claude](https://help.ivorey.io/en/articles/13631461-customise-your-pages-with-claude.md) guide.

## frequently asked questions

can I move my project between AI studio and the drag-and-drop builders later?

No, AI Studio projects can't be moved or copied into the drag-and-drop builders, as they're managed in a separate workspace. That's why we recommend checking what your project needs before you start.

If you'd like to rebuild an existing drag-and-drop page in AI Studio, you can paste its live URL into your prompt. AI uses it as direction for the structure, layout and style, rather than recreating it exactly.
