PlateGUIDE
Where can I get a complete website my coding agent can adapt to my brand?
Start from a finished, working site rather than a blank prompt or a pile of components, and give your agent the source plus clear rules for what it may change. Here is what to look for, and where Plate fits.
What to look for
- A complete, running site. Components still have to be composed into a page; a finished site already has its structure, motion, phone layout and ending worked out.
- A clear editing surface. Copy, colours and options in one content file, separate from the engine, so the agent changes your content without rewriting the effect.
- Stated limits. What cannot change without new code. An agent that knows the limits stops guessing.
- A licence for client work, and credits for any fonts or assets it includes.
- A verifiable archive: a version and a SHA-256 your agent can check before it starts.
Where Plate fits
Plate has 14 such projects. 5 are free with a Google sign-in; 9 are in Plate Pro. Plate Pro is $49.50 once (launch price; regularly $89), no subscription, with v1 updates; free projects need only a Google sign-in. Each page lists what you receive, what you can change, the limits and the exact instructions to paste into your agent.
- Meniscus: A fragrance house whose whole page sits under a live fluid.
- Tide: A product site for an invented bedside sleep-sound orb that runs from dusk to dawn as you scroll.
- Perihelion: A planetarium studio site that is one live-rendered flight: scroll moves a probe along an authored path through a ringed gas giant, a terminator crossing, a nebula volume and a lensed black-hole disc, drawn by one WebGL2 shader.
- Meridian: An expedition outfitter's site told as a 48-second film that scrolling advances: four Poly Haven worlds sampled live by a raw-WebGL camera, whip pans and blink cuts between chapters, two shots per crossing, film slates with the facts, a route drawn across every world and completed as a map.
- Murmur: A voice-and-hearing research lab whose site is a murmuration: 409,600 WebGL2 points form the wordmark, a synthesised voice, its spectrogram, an ear and the lab's mark across four scroll chapters.
- The Observatory: An atmospheric-data studio's website that is one authored night: scrolling advances an hour from 18:36 to 06:00, driving a live WebGL2 shader sky, three instrument panels and a case study, all read from one keyframed model.
- The Gazette: A fictional weekly culture paper's website, played as a single issue: a sticky cover slides beneath a pushing contents spread, a pinned feature turns like a real four-page fold, and the back cover is the issue's own ending.
- Riot Grain: A record label's release site drawn entirely by code: canvas letter bodies fall and settle under a hand-written Verlet physics solver, a pointer shove scatters and resettles them, and the tracklist, marquee, countdown and pre-order locker are all assembled from the same content file.
- Patchbay: A desktop synthesiser's front panel, rebuilt as a website: two oscillators, a filter, an envelope and a delay run on the Web Audio API behind a real 17-key playable keyboard, with an owner's manual and an engraved serial plate.
- Atelier Rook: A small architecture studio's site drawn as its own seven-sheet drawing set: a fixed board of three layers (site plan, section, structure/light study over it, floor plan) redraws itself as you scroll, ending on the practice and a contact sheet with a mailto and a downloadable issue register.
- Hollow Lane Nursery: A plant nursery's single-page site built around one canvas-drawn campion that grows through six stages as you scroll, alongside three sales benches of fifteen authored plant drawings, a sketch map and an order list you fill from the benches and take as a mailto or a .txt download.
- Daybay: A body-camera firefight in a sunlit concrete bay.
- Lookout: A one-room stay above a dam whose page scrolls through a real day: seven registered photographs of one hill, crossfaded as the camera turns to follow the sun.
- Sillage: A fragrance site with no scroll: one fixed frame, a photographed bottle you press, and live air over the top of it.
It has been tested this way
Each of these 13 projects was handed to a fresh Claude Code session with an invented brand brief and nothing else. The recorded result is on each project's page, with the time taken and anything the agent had to change outside the supported files.
When Plate is the wrong choice
- Your client wants to edit the site themselves after handover: Plate projects have no CMS or admin screen. A hosted builder such as Webflow or Framer suits that better.
- You need a checkout, stock or accounts: these are presentation sites; the only built-in actions are email drafts and text downloads.
- You want a component library to compose your own layout: that is what shadcn/ui-style libraries are for.
