Launching a new application

On the Applications page click New app. The app builder steps are: type, package (which address the site starts on), domain, languages and review. When you click Launch application, the first period's fee – and for a newly bought domain, the domain fee too – is deducted from your team's credits, and the site is ready in a few minutes.

A site launched from the app builder is paid from the team's credit balance. If you would rather pay by card with a monthly or annual subscription, and try the site first, the trial is the other way in (see: Trial and going live).

App builder steps

  1. Type – Landing page, Website or Portal. Each card shows the fee in credits; the price depends on the type.
  2. Package – which address the site starts on:
    • Quick start – live immediately on a demona.ai address, no technical setup.
    • Set up your existing domain – connect a domain you already own, without buying one.
    • Buy a new domain – search for and buy a new domain; the domain fee is charged separately.
  3. Domain
    • For Quick start, enter a short name (3–32 characters: lowercase letters, digits, hyphens) – it becomes the site's address.
    • For an existing domain, enter it and choose whether the address with or without www is the primary one.
    • For a new domain, search and pick one, then enter the owner's details. Your team's billing details must be complete for this; the builder tells you if something is missing. For a .hu domain the owner is a company (with its tax number) or a private person (with a date of birth), with a Hungarian address, and must accept the .hu registry's declarations.
  4. Languages – the default language and any additional ones. You can change them later in the CMS, under Settings → Languages.
  5. Review – enter the application name, choose monthly or annual billing (annual is discounted), see what is due at launch, and accept the terms.

Finally click Launch application.

Good to know

  • If the name you picked is not allowed, use Request approval; you get an e-mail once it has been reviewed.
  • If you do not have enough credits, the Review step shows how many are missing. Top up with Top up credits, then continue with Refresh balance.
  • A successful domain registration is non-refundable.
  • For a .hu domain, the registry sends the owner an e-mail and a text message; both must be confirmed, which can take up to a day.
  • When you connect an existing domain, the DNS steps follow right after launch; until then the site is already available and editable on a temporary address.
  • After launch the site is ready in a few minutes. Then Set up takes you to the site's first-time setup.
