Mobirise AI Review: AI Website Builder, Free Plan & My Test Results

Mobirise AI is an AI website builder from Mobirise that turns one written description into a website. It shows four layouts, you pick one, change it in a visual editor and publish it to a mobirisesite.com address.

I tested the free plan. Free gives 3 AI generations a month and up to 3 sites, with a Mobirise banner on every page. I did not test the Mobirise desktop app.

Every number here comes from my own tests. Mobirise never saw the review first, and every website builder gets the same briefs. I pasted the cafe brief into Mobirise AI, published the site on its free address and ran my tools on it.

Mobirise AI is free to start, and the cheapest paid plan, BASE, is $199 for one year. Prices read on 1 November 2026.

The page does not give a renewal price. It says published sites keep working if you do not renew, but premium blocks stop being editable and support ends. There is a 14-day money-back promise.

Mobirise AI made a live site about 5 minutes after I pressed Generate Website, and 2 minutes 36 seconds of that was signing in. You paste your description, sign in with Google and pick one of four layouts.

The site is one long page. The brief asked for Home, Menu, About, Catering and Contact pages, and the AI put them all on one page, with a menu that does nothing when you click it. Publishing took about 10 seconds.

One brief used 1 of the 3 free generations, so Mobirise showed '2 generations left'. I could build the shop or photographer site later in the month, but not three of them.

Mobirise AI got 15 of 19 facts right and made things up. The brief said not to add reviews or staff, and the AI added 3 customer reviews, 3 staff cards and 6 blog posts.

One line is wrong: it says the cafe is open 7 am to 4 pm every day. The cardamom bun and the breakfast sandwich have no price, and the Instagram name is missing. It also says the cafe has vegan pastries and uses nearby farms, which the brief never said. The reviews and staff would mislead a visitor, so delete them before you share the site.

Mobirise AI's cafe site looks clean but its menu does not work. All five menu links go back to the top of the page, and so do the buttons.

On a phone the headline splits in the middle of a word, 'Neighborho' and 'od Café'. The page scrolls a little sideways at 360 pixels wide, and some tap targets are small. My design test counted 3 faults.

For accessibility, axe-core found low contrast in 10 places and 4 links with no name. If you use a keyboard, you reach 14 of 62 items, and 13 of them show no focus ring.

Mobirise AI made site-wide changes in about 3 seconds. In Site Styles I changed the heading font and the main colour, and the whole page followed. Only 3 fonts are offered.

Every block has a code button. On the free plan it opened a full HTML and CSS editor, so you can add your own code. I also duplicated a section in 2.5 seconds and retyped a line of text in place.

'Create New Page' gave an empty page with no menu. I did 4 of the 12 edits, so editing is not graded.

Mobirise AI's page is slow on phones. Google's speed test gave a median of 70 out of 100 across 3 phone runs, and 82 on desktop.

The main picture took 4.7 to 5.5 seconds to show on a phone. The page weighs 8.5 MB and has 57 pictures, so it is heavy on a mobile connection.

I'm watching my Mobirise test site for 30 days, from 29 October to 28 November 2026.

My own monitor opens the site every five minutes and records whether it answered and how fast. Mobirise hosts the site, so a Mobirise outage would show here.

Is it really Mobirise serving this site?

Yes. The address belongs to Mobirise's own hosting domain, and every answer carries Mobirise's hosting headers. Every page shows Mobirise's banner. RankDude itself runs elsewhere (Vercel).

Mobirise AI leaves most search basics out of the first draft. The page has a title and a description, but no H1, no canonical tag, no social cards and no alt text on any of its 57 pictures.

Site Settings has switches for robots.txt and sitemap.xml, both off. After I switched robots.txt on, it still answered 404. A noindex line pasted into the page head worked. SEO is not graded, because my own change altered the files.

Mobirise AI's contact form showed no thank-you message when I tested it. It has Name, Phone and Email boxes and no message box, and I saw nothing after I pressed 'Send Message'. Support later told me the form sends the message to the email address verified when the form was added to the project.

Every free page shows a banner, 'The site was made with Free AI Website Builder', and a custom domain is listed under the paid plans. I did not try selling, bookings or a blog, so this section is not graded.

Mobirise AI blocks the zip download on the free plan. The Publish dialog offers 'Download in .zip', and choosing it showed 'This feature is available with our premium plans'.

The pricing page lists 'Site Export' under BASE and GROW. Ownership is not graded.

Mobirise AI's live site uses https and sends none of the six safety headers I check. The certificate runs to 28 March 2027, and the plain http address redirects to https.

I could not test backups or restoring an earlier version, and I did not look for two-factor sign-in. Site Settings has a cookies alert and a GDPR switch, both off, and my page showed no cookie banner.

My accessibility results are in the design section.

Mobirise support answered all three of my questions in about 5 and a half hours, and a person wrote the reply. I emailed support@mobirise.com, the one address on the free site, on 29 October 2026.

A custom domain on a Mobirise-hosted site needs a paid plan such as BASE or GROW, and the reply linked to step-by-step help. The contact form sends the message to the email address verified when the form was added. The card is changed through 2Checkout, and you can upgrade BASE to GROW by paying the difference, but not downgrade GROW to BASE until the GROW licence ends.

That is inside a day but slower than four hours. I did not follow the steps or use a chat or a form.
