Frequently asked questions

Saynovo is an AI website platform for local and home service businesses. You connect your Google Business Profile, Saynovo generates a complete, agency-quality website from your real business details in minutes, and from then on you change that site by talking to it: describe what you want and it happens. The result is real code that Saynovo hosts, secures and maintains for you, not a drag-and-drop template you have to keep tidy yourself. Every account gets one full website generation free, from any starting point - your Google profile, a ready-made template, or a blank page - and the site goes live free on a saynovo.com web address. Moving it to your own domain, dropping the Saynovo badge and carrying on editing by talking are what a paid plan adds. Saynovo is made by SyntroAI.

No. If you can describe what you want, you can build and run your website with Saynovo. There is nothing to install, no code to learn, no hosting to rent and no plugins to keep updated. You sign in, connect your Google Business Profile, and the first version of your site is written, designed and filled with your real details for you. From there, everyday changes are point and click: click a headline and type over it, drag a section into a new position, swap a photo, change a color. Those direct edits are free on every plan, including the free one, and they save straight away. Hosting, SSL certificates, backups, security patches and page speed are handled in the background, so there is no server for you to look after and nothing to update on a Tuesday night.

You say or type the change you want in plain language, and Saynovo applies it to your site. Open the editor and ask for something like "change the headline to mention free estimates", "add a section about our 20 years of experience", or "make the services grid show six services instead of four", and the page updates in front of you. Saynovo tells you what it is about to change before it changes it, and every version is kept, so one undo puts things back exactly as they were. Precise everyday changes - wording, a phone number, a color, a photo swap - are applied instantly and cost nothing on any plan. Bigger asks, where the AI writes new copy or redesigns a section, use one AI edit from the allowance on your paid plan, and the editor labels which kind of change you are making before you commit.

You can still build a full site. Saynovo has three starting points and all three count for your one free generation: import a Google Business Profile, begin from a ready-made template built for your trade, or start from scratch by typing in your own details - business name, services, service area, opening hours, phone number and a few photos. The finished site is the same either way; a Google profile simply saves you the typing and brings your reviews, photos and hours across automatically. If you create a Google profile later you can connect it then and pull that content in. It is worth having for its own sake, too: a Google Business Profile is how most local customers find you in Maps and search, and Saynovo keeps your listing and your website saying the same thing.

Yes. Every new account gets one complete website generation at no cost and with no credit card, whichever starting point you use - a Google Business Profile, a template, or a blank page. You can preview it, edit it by hand and publish it free on a saynovo.com web address, where it is a real, indexable website carrying a small "Made with Saynovo" badge. The free generation is one per account rather than one per site: it is recorded the moment it is used, and deleting the site afterwards does not give it back, so build the business you actually want to launch. After that, generating another site, regenerating an existing one, moving to your own domain, removing the badge and editing by talking all need an active subscription.

Editing your site by hand is free on every plan, including the free one; what needs an active subscription is talk-to-edit, where you ask Saynovo in plain language for a change. Click any headline, paragraph, button or price and type over it; drag sections into a new order; swap a photo, change a color, adjust spacing or hide a block. Those direct edits apply instantly, are unlimited and never cost anything. Talk-to-edit covers asking Saynovo to write new copy, add a whole section or restyle the site, and each of those counts as one AI edit. Nearly everything you ask for is a single edit, and only a very big job, like writing a whole new page, counts as a few. Every paid plan includes a monthly allowance: about 100 on Publish and about 600 on Pro. If you use them all, your site stays live and hand editing keeps working: wait for the allowance to renew, move up a plan, or top up 100 more AI edits for $30.

Your website keeps working. Cancelling stops the next renewal rather than switching anything off: your plan runs to the end of the period you have already paid for, and Saynovo does not refund or prorate a part-used month. After that the account moves to the free plan. The site stays live on its saynovo.com web address with all of your content, settings and history intact, and editing by hand stays free. What pauses is the paid half - publishing on your own domain, talk-to-edit AI edits, and the apps that come with a paid plan - and the "Made with Saynovo" badge comes back. The free plan covers 1 published site, so an account running several locations should stay subscribed to keep every one of them live. Resubscribe and everything picks up where it left off; nothing is deleted.

No. Saynovo is a done-for-you service rather than a file you take away: we build the site, host it, secure it with SSL, keep it patched and keep it fast, so there are no servers, files or version upgrades for you to manage. The code stays a Saynovo platform asset and is not offered as a download. What is yours stays yours, and Saynovo claims no ownership of it: your business content, your words and photos, your logo, your domain name, your customer and booking data, and your Google Business Profile. If you outgrow a website there is a path forward rather than a wall - the SyntroAI team behind Saynovo can expand the exact site you already have into custom software, keeping the same design and the same content.

Yes, on a paid plan. Every new site goes live free and immediately on a saynovo.com web address, which is a real indexable website; moving it to the domain your customers already know is what the Publish plan at $29 a month unlocks, together with removing the "Made with Saynovo" badge. Saynovo issues and renews the SSL certificate for you, so the site is served securely over https with nothing to configure and no renewal date to remember. Connecting the domain is a copy-and-paste job at whichever registrar you bought it from: Saynovo shows you the exact records to add, and the change usually takes effect within an hour. The domain stays registered in your name - you own it, and you can point it somewhere else whenever you like.

How to connect your domain

Saynovo is built first for home service businesses, where a fast, credible website is what turns a search into a phone call: roofing, HVAC, water damage and fire restoration, plumbing, electrical, painting, locksmiths, movers, cleaners, landscapers and general contractors. It knows the shape those sites need - a 24/7 emergency line, storm and insurance-claim content, service-area coverage, before-and-after galleries, license and certification badges - and it writes trade-specific copy plus the matching structured data instead of generic filler. It works well beyond the trades too: restaurants, cafes and bakeries, salons and spas, gyms and studios, clinics and professional practices, automotive shops, pet businesses and photographers. Any local business with a Google Business Profile can build a site here; the trades above simply get the deepest treatment.

Yes. The Site Translation app publishes your website in any of 40 languages, and it is included with the Publish plan. Each language gets its own clean web address and the right hreflang tags, so Google can rank your Spanish pages in Spanish search and your French pages in French search instead of treating them as duplicates of each other, and visitors get a language switcher styled like the rest of your site. Translations are not frozen: if a word is not quite right you fix it by saying so, and only that language changes. Translating a site draws on your plan's AI edits, sized by how much text there is, and Saynovo shows you the cost before it starts. Saynovo's own dashboard runs in 5 languages.

It is a real website. Saynovo generates actual code - semantic HTML and hand-tuned CSS - laid out and written around your business rather than a theme with your logo dropped into it. Two roofers in the same town get different layouts, different section orders and different words, because the design is generated from their own facts instead of picked off a shelf. No page-builder runtime is shipped to your visitors, which is why the pages load quickly and score well on Google's Core Web Vitals, and the markup carries the structured data local search wants: your business type, address, opening hours, services and reviews. Saynovo hosts it with SSL, backups and updates included. You can start from a template if you prefer a known shape, and the AI still rewrites it around your business.

Saynovo has a built-in app catalog, so there are no third-party plugins to buy, install or keep updated. Several apps are on every site at no cost: your Google reviews section with daily sync, an FAQ section, chat buttons like WhatsApp, a food or service menu, a working contact form, and the AI-visibility features that help answer engines quote you correctly. More arrive with the Publish plan at $29 a month: online booking with real availability, AI live chat trained on your own site, automated form follow-ups, popups and announcements, custom embeds, video galleries and site translation. The apps that use AI on your behalf draw on your plan's AI edit allowance, and every app page says so before you add it. A few specialist apps carry their own small monthly fee.

No, and the difference is what you spend your evening doing. A builder hands you a blank canvas and a toolbar: you pick a template, drag blocks around, and the quality of the result is the quality of your own design decisions. Saynovo does the building. It reads your business details, chooses the layout, writes the copy, places your photos and reviews and hands you a finished website to react to, and changing it means describing the change rather than hunting through panels. The output differs too: generated code carrying the structured data local search wants, hosted and maintained for you, instead of a template you keep tidy yourself. The honest trade-off is that there is no drag-and-drop canvas and no file to export - Saynovo is a managed service, not software you take away.
