Using Templates
Templates give you a professionally designed starting point that you can customise with AI in seconds. BuildFlow has two types of templates.
Prompt templates (in the builder)
Prompt templates are pre-written prompt structures — not finished sites. They're a fast way to write a complete, well-structured prompt.
- Open the Chatbuilder.
- Click the Templates button (bottom toolbar).
- Choose a template category: Landing Page, Portfolio, Dashboard, etc.
- The prompt fills in automatically — edit the placeholders (business name, colors, etc.).
- Click Generate.
The P.F.D.A. Starter template is the most versatile — it works for any type of site.
Marketplace templates
The Template Marketplace offers complete, ready-to-use site designs created by the BuildFlow community and team.
- Go to buildflow-ai.app/templates.
- Browse by category or search by keyword.
- Free templates — click Use Template to open it directly in the builder.
- Pro templates — one-time purchase unlocks the template forever.
- Once loaded, modify it with follow-up prompts just like any other generation.
Pro tip: After loading a marketplace template, try:
"Update this for a photography studio called Lens & Light, use black and gold colors"
"Update this for a photography studio called Lens & Light, use black and gold colors"
