Your own proper website, built with you, not rented from a marketplace.
Built by real British humans who check everything. Answer a short brief, we shape the site around your brand, then look after it on UK hosting.
Go live on a tidalux.site address with a QR to share, or bring your own domain. The day you want to leave, take a static copy with you. No lock-in.
What are we building?
Pick the shape of the site. You can change this in the brief, but it helps us tailor the preview.
Animated demo of WaveSites. A short brief becomes a brand, then a live preview on a tidalux.site address with a QR code to share.
Animated demo: one printed QR code stays the same while its destination flips between a menu, a booking page and an offer.
WaveSites can also
- Take bookings on your site
- Collect reviews without marketplace rent
- Share a smart link and QR
Who it's for
- Idea-stage founders who need a proper home before the business feels official

- Anyone who would rather own their address than rent space on a marketplace
What you own

- Your content, brand and every customer who finds you

FAQ
Questions before you start the brief
An AI-guided website build for UK small businesses and new ideas. You answer a short brief; we launch a brand-led site on your own address with hosting and email, and you can export a static copy if you leave.
Yes. Plenty of people use WaveSites to put an idea online properly before they have a company name settled or stock on a shelf. Start on the free Launch plan and grow into a paid tier once things are moving.
Yes. Your content, domain relationship and customer traffic stay yours. WaveSites is your own-site foundation, not a rented marketplace storefront.
Launch is free on a tidalux.site address. When you want your own domain, branding removed and more pages, choose Flow, Rise or Surge monthly. WaveAI is its own assistant product, and a free WaveCheck is always available.
A typical brief-to-preview turnaround is a few days. Send what you have, even rough notes and phone photos. We write draft copy from your brief and you edit or approve it, so a blank folder does not hold up your launch.
Either works. Point an existing domain at your new WaveSites build, or start free on a tidalux.site address and move to your own domain later. We can also help you register a new one if you need guidance.
Yes. Bookings, reviews and a smart link or QR are features of your WaveSites site, not separate products you have to learn. Add them when you need them.
We could not pick up where you left off
This usually happens after a refresh once browser storage clears, or if the saved draft expired. Nothing is wrong on your side.
Start the WaveSites brief again from the intro, or skip straight to a human if you would rather talk it through.
