About Semiotic
Semiotic builds AI design agents. We’re starting with agents that build landing pages for fast‑growing startups.
Existing AI website builders didn't make creating websites easier—they made creating ugly websites easier. So, companies choose between blue-purple gradient slop or agencies with 3-month waitlists and $100k minimums.
You don't have to choose anymore.
