Giedrius Zakaitis, Hostinger
The market of AI-powered coding tools is expanding fast, but so far these solutions have shared a common drawback: you needed external platforms to publish and host the software you create. Hostinger Horizons removes that barrier. It has hosting, domains, emails, and other essential tools—all in one place.
Hostinger is rolling out the new product to a select group of clients, with full availability for new and existing customers in March.
Early access trials show that simple web apps, such as a personal calorie tracker, a language-learning card game, or a time management tool, can be built and published in minutes, without any coding.
“Web apps have turned ideas into million-dollar startups, but building one always required coding or hiring a developer. We believe it is time to change the game. Just like Hostinger AI Website Builder introduced a new kind of site-building experience, Hostinger Horizons will democratize web apps so that anyone can bring their unique and exciting ideas online,” says Giedrius Zakaitis, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Hostinger.
Web app creation without coding
The vast majority of over 3.5 million Hostinger customers build and manage traditional websites, such as portfolios, business showcases, or online shops. Web apps, however, offer interactive experiences, allowing users to input data, collaborate, and engage in real time. Well-known startups, such as Duolingo, Notion, or Airbnb, started off as simple web apps that captured market interest and became successful companies.
“Coding web apps from scratch takes weeks or months, and hiring a developer can cost thousands. For larger projects, both time and costs grow exponentially. Hostinger Horizons is a lifesaver for entrepreneurs and startups looking to build fully functional online tools and test ideas quickly. It’s like working with a developer or an agency, only much faster and at a fraction of the cost,” says Zakaitis.
Hostinger Horizons operates through a simple chat interface. AI instantly creates, adds, and edits what users ask for, showing a preview next to the chat. It supports 80+ languages, voice prompts, and image uploads, allowing users to provide sketches or screenshots for reference.
When the web app is ready, users can publish it on a custom domain with a few clicks, making it instantly accessible. They can refine and update the web app anytime, redeploying whenever needed.
Powering innovation with AI
Hostinger leverages AI to provide tools that help individuals and small businesses succeed online faster and more easily.
AI-driven solutions played a key role in expanding Hostinger’s customer base and improving customer support last year. Over a year ago, Hostinger introduced Kodee, a chat assistant that now handles over 50% of the Customer Success team’s workload. This allows the team to focus on complex, high-value interactions with customers.
Hostinger continues to develop AI-powered tools designed to simplify the website-building process. Their flagship Hostinger AI Website Builder builds a personalized website in under a minute with just a prompt. Then, integrated AI tools help them write content, create images, improve user experience, and more. Over 80% of Hostinger Website Builder clients use AI features during site-building.
