Free to make and publish
A free website for your bakery.
When someone looks for a bakery nearby, they want your hours, your address and what’s on the counter. Put it all on one page and publish it free.
You sign in with your email address. Publishing at a benchlight.page address is free and needs no card.
What a bakery website needs.
Keep it to one page. These are the things people look for before they get in touch.
Opening hours
The thing people check most. Include the days you close.
What you bake every day
Your regular breads and pastries, so people know what to expect.
Custom orders
If you make cakes to order, say how much notice you need and how to ask.
How to find you
Your street address, plus parking or the nearest landmark.
When to come
If the best things sell out by noon, say so.
Allergies
Say what you offer for common allergies, and ask people to call before they order.
Ask Claude, or fill in the starter.
Use whichever is easier. Both save a private draft in your Benchlight account that you can preview and change before anyone sees it.
Ask Claude
Example requestUse Benchlight to make a one-page website for my bakery. It’s called Sweet Crumb, we’re at 12 Main Street, we’re open Tuesday to Sunday from 7am to 3pm, and our phone number is 555 010 0199.
This is the request that made the Sweet Crumb draft shown above.
Add Benchlight to Claude from its connector directory first. Claude asks you to sign in to Benchlight the first time.

From draft to a live website.
Make your draft
Ask Claude or fill in the starter. The draft stays private to your account.
Check the preview
Look at it on your phone, fix anything that’s wrong and save a new version.
Publish free
On the draft’s page, choose Publish free. Your site goes live at a free benchlight.page address, with a small Made with Benchlight credit at the bottom.
Each account has one free site, and you can publish newer versions of your draft to it. When you want your own web address, choose Get or use your own domain on the same page. That moves the site to Benchlight hosting, a paid plan, and you see the options before you pick one.
What these sites don’t do
Benchlight sites don’t take orders or payments. Say how to order a cake, by phone or at the counter. They’re web pages with phone and email links, without contact forms, customer accounts or a store.

It takes a few minutes, and nothing goes live until you publish it.
