Proven, not pretty.
BuildTaste exists because of a pattern anyone can verify in an afternoon: the internet is full of beautiful websites for products that never made a dollar — and full of "mid-looking" pages that quietly print revenue. If you're building to sell something, the second group is the one worth learning from.
What BuildTaste is
BuildTaste is a design-kit builder for people who ship websites with AI coding agents — Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Bolt, Lovable and friends. You choose a taste system (palette, real Google Fonts pairing, shape language, signature move), pick hero and pricing strategies, and export an organized ZIP with README, manifest, brief files, theme files, sections, app examples and integration notes. Your agent applies it; your site stops looking generated. If you want the full picture of when to use it, read the use-cases page or the design guide.
The data behind it
Every pattern in BuildTaste is sourced from startups with verified revenue signals (via TrustMRR), not from design-award galleries. We capture and study their real pages — the heroes, pricing tables and signup flows that actually convert — and distill them into systems you can apply without copying anyone.
Who builds it
BuildTaste is built by an indie founder who ships with AI agents daily — the product is built the same way its users build: vibe-coded functionality, deliberate taste on top. That's also why it's priced like a tool, not a platform: one-time purchase (Founder $49, Growth $149), no subscription, with a clear conditional refund policy for verified product failures.
The one-sentence version: BuildTaste turns proven design taste into files an AI coding agent can apply — so your next build doesn't look AI-generated.
