Automattic, the company behind WordPress, has unveiled Spacefast, a new platform designed to host websites and applications built with AI. The service competes directly with platforms like Lovable and Emergent by offering developers a comprehensive toolkit for deploying AI-generated projects.
Spacefast includes built-in features for databases, user authentication, file uploads, email functionality, and usage analytics—eliminating the need to cobble together multiple services. Developers can leverage popular AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor to create projects, then deploy them by connecting a Git repository. This workflow appeals to teams building rapidly with AI assistance without wanting to manage infrastructure separately.
