We offer lifetime licenses, which we treat as a source of capital to continue developing Shuffle. Some people see that as a potential downside, but we see it differently. It allows us to maintain full control over Shuffle's direction.

The Shuffle Editor has been on the market for over six years, and the majority of our customers use subscription plans (monthly or annual).

AI Website Redesign is a supporting tool for Shuffle. You can use it to explore different design directions without ever opening the Shuffle Editor, but I don't expect that to be the main use case.

Most users start with Shuffle here: https://shuffle.dev/new

Example:

They’re reportedly at ~$100M ARR, implying about $8.3–8.5M in monthly revenue (ARR = last month * 12).

At the same time, they claim to have processed 147T+ tokens. For context, pricing that volume on something like Sonnet 4.5 would come out to roughly $500M in API costs. They likely offset a chunk of that with open models, but for higher-quality outputs, they’re still paying meaningful amounts to Claude / OpenAI / Google.

Hard to make those numbers work without a lot of capital or an exit.

// In this one, Gemini doesn't understand what "cinematic" is

"A cinematic underwater shot of a turtle gracefully swimming in crystal-clear water [...]"

// In this one, the reflection in the water in the background has different buildings

"A modern city where raindrops fall upward into the clouds instead of down, pedestrians calmly walking [...]"

Midjourney created both perfectly.

For the last few weeks, we have been working on catching up on features for vibe coders (prompt -> project), but now we are back to our strengths (visual editor and new beautiful UI libraries for Tailwind CSS, Bootstrap, and more).

We realized there are just too many apps for vibe coders, and it would be better to work on something unique that we are really good at!

We have used the term "components" for a long time. Some call them "sections" or "blocks". Still, I think "component" is a valid name, and many websites with components/sections/blocks use it.

Thank you for your feedback.

1. The "Shuffle Styles" changes everything except tabs with a padlock icon. You can lock settings you like and then keep shuffling.

2. Shuffle is our main product (check https://shuffle.dev/new). Until now, we have only had UI libraries we created ourselves. You can adjust them to your needs in the editor, but the UI Library Creator is a tool to create libraries we don't have.

3. Can you tell me more about this "intrusive ad"? Probably, I didn't understand it correctly.

4. UI Libraries are sets of components grouped into categories, like headers, pricing, etc. For example, you can view components of Saturn Library: https://shuffle.dev/components/all/saturn

5. Assets and Copy are last because they are not this tool's "killer feature"- Styles are. :) However, when creating a UI library, it is best to lock them at the beginning so you can focus on styles, not texts and images.

Appreciate engagement with a longer comment! Thanks
