AI 3D Scroll Website Builder (Draftly)

Turn one prompt into an AI-generated video, slice it into frames, and sell cinematic scroll-driven websites for $25 a month.

In plain English

Draftly makes websites that feel like a short film as you scroll down the page. The AI creates a brief cinematic clip from your description, the product slices that clip into many still frames, and those frames play forward as a visitor moves. Founders, online stores, restaurants, and freelancers pay a simple monthly plan because agencies usually build this kind of look, and here you can start from ready-made styles, edit the words in place, and download the finished site. The AI does most of the building and the payments. The person running Draftly still designs those styles, keeps playback smooth on phones, handles support and refunds, and shares demos.

Step-by-step setup

  1. Build a prompt-to-video step: an AI model generates a short cinematic clip (product turntable, fly-through, reveal) from the user's brief.
  2. Extract hundreds of frames from the clip and play them forward as the visitor scrolls, which creates a 3D parallax effect with no WebGL or Three.js.
  3. Wrap it in a page builder with presets, editable copy, layered UI elements and chained videos, then let users export production HTML as a ZIP.
  4. Sell one simple plan. Draftly Basic is $25/mo for full agent builds and 5 live sites.
  5. Market with a gallery of striking presets inspired by real customers, aimed at founders, e-commerce stores, restaurants and freelancers.

Overview

Draftly is a website builder that makes cinematic, scroll-driven 3D sites from a single prompt. Its trick is simple. AI generates a short cinematic video, Draftly extracts hundreds of frames, and as visitors scroll the frames play forward, so the page feels like a film. It needs no WebGL or Three.js. It works with native browser scrolling and frame interpolation.

Users start from presets (product launches, automotive reveals, editorial archives) or describe a site from scratch, edit it in place, and download production-ready code as a ZIP. TrustMRR lists founder Piyush Singh as a one-person, bootstrapped team.

Ordinary AI website builders all look alike. Draftly sells a visual effect that agencies charge a lot for, at $25 a month, and the eye-catching demos do the marketing.

Realistic income

TrustMRR verifies Draftly’s revenue through its Dodo Payments API key. As of Oct 24, 2026 it shows $12,705 MRR, $14,839 in the last 30 days, $155,673 in all-time revenue and 384 active subscriptions. The founding date isn’t listed, so there’s no timeline to first revenue.

That is one solo operator’s result. It doesn’t predict yours.

How to build your own

  • The core is cheap to build: a video clip, FFmpeg frame extraction and a scroll-scrubbing canvas player. FFmpeg is free.
  • For video, either pay a cloud video API (see each provider’s pricing) or run open video models locally in ComfyUI on your own GPU. Local generation keeps the cost per site near zero after hardware.
  • Niche down to stand out: 3D scroll sites only for restaurants, real estate tours, car dealers or product launches, each with tailored presets.
  • Charge per month with a site limit, like Draftly’s $25 for 5 live sites, or sell done-for-you builds to local businesses as an agency upsell.
  • Show your gallery on social media. Short screen recordings of the scroll effect are the whole pitch.

Risks

  • The effect is easy to copy, so competitors and the big site builders can add it fast.
  • Hundreds of frames per page can make sites heavy and slow on mobile, which hurts SEO and conversions.
  • AI video API costs can eat margins on a $25 plan if users regenerate a lot.
  • Generated video may raise copyright or likeness issues if users prompt for brands or real people.
  • Revenue depends on one product and one payment processor.
