Squarespace’s latest updates bundle artificial-intelligence site creation with a stack of fresh discounts-some topping 50%-as competition among drag-and-drop builders heats up.
New AI Website Builder & Perplexity Deal
Paid subscribers can now test Blueprint AI, a chat-style builder that assembles pages after a short Q&A. Content stays private until published under the same plan. Separately, Squarespace will power domain registration and brand tips inside Perplexity’s forthcoming Comet browser, letting users jump from AI-driven research to live sites without leaving the app.
Current Promo Codes & Instant Savings
- WIRED10 knocks 10% off any first-time plan and stacks with the built-in 14-day trial
- Choosing an annual plan cuts up to 36% versus monthly billing-worth $84 on Core and $1,520 on Advanced
- Acuity Scheduling (works standalone) gets 20% off Starter & Standard, 19% off Premium
| Plan | Monthly Cost | Annual Cost | Yearly Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Personal | $23 | $192 ($16/mo) | $84 |
| Core | $30 | $276 ($23/mo) | $84 |
| Advanced | $52 | $468 ($39/mo) | $1,520 |
Loyalty & Student Perks
Squarespace Circle rewards power users: 3 active sites unlock the free tier with 10% off renewals, while Platinum (20+ sites) lifts the discount to 20% on fresh annual plans plus priority support and six-month trials for new projects.
Students verify through Student Beans once per 12-month window to secure a 50% discount on any annual website plan-no cap on how long the site runs.
Key Takeaways
