Draftly Free Trial: Build a Full 3D Site, No Credit Card

Most "free trials" are a bait-and-switch. They promise the world, then hide 90% of the useful features behind a credit card form. The Draftly free trial is different by design. It's not a crippled demo; it's a full-featured sandbox that lets you generate, customize, and even publish a cinematic 3D website without ever reaching for your wallet. We believe you should see the full power of AI-driven web design before you commit.

This guide breaks down exactly what you can build and which features you can access. We'll cover the specific types of websites you can create, how our free offering compares to others, and the few limitations you should know about. Our goal is transparency, so you can make an informed decision.

What's Actually Included in the Draftly Free Trial?

The core principle of our free plan is simple: you should be able to build a complete, functional website from a single prompt. We don’t gate the fundamental tools that make Draftly unique. In fact, over 85% of our core generation and customization features are available to every free user.

Here’s a look at what you get full access to:

• Unlimited AI Website Generations: Experiment with as many prompts as you like. Generate a site for a brutalist architecture firm, then a vibrant one for a cloud kitchen. The AI engine is completely at your disposal to create different concepts.
• Full Section Library Access: You can use every single block from our extensive Draftly Section Library. This includes hero sections, feature grids, testimonials, contact forms, and multi-column layouts. There are no “premium-only” blocks.
• Cinematic 3D & Animation Effects: All scroll-driven animations and 3D effects are available. This is our signature feature, and we don't believe in hiding it. You can explore our full range of motion options to create an immersive experience.
• AI Image Generation Credits: You get a starter pack of credits to use our built-in AI image generator. This is enough to create custom visuals for your hero section and key feature blocks, helping you avoid generic stock photos.
• Lead Capture Forms: Every free site can have a fully functional contact or inquiry form. Leads are captured and stored right in your Draftly dashboard, and you get email notifications for every submission.
• Mobile & Tablet Previews: Test and refine the responsive design of your site on all device types. Our AI automatically ensures your site looks great on every screen, but you have the power to preview and tweak it.

Build and Test These 3 Website Types for Free

Theory is great, but practical application is better. The Draftly free trial isn't just for playing around; it's powerful enough to build real, professional-quality web properties. Here are three examples of sites you can create and publish today.

A Professional Portfolio Website

For freelancers, designers, and consultants, a portfolio is non-negotiable. With the free plan, you can generate a complete portfolio that showcases your work and expertise. A typical build would include a stunning hero section, a gallery of your best projects, an “About Me” section, and a contact form. Freelancers who build a portfolio website report up to a 40% increase in qualified client inquiries compared to relying on social media profiles alone.

• Prompt: *"Create a portfolio website for a freelance UI/UX designer based in Mumbai, showcasing projects for fintech and edtech startups. The style should be minimalist, professional, and use a dark mode theme."
• Customize: Use the chat editor to swap out placeholder projects with your own work. Use your AI image credits to generate unique mockups.
• Publish: Your site goes live instantly on a `draftly.space` subdomain, ready to be added to your LinkedIn or shared with potential clients.

An Event Landing Page

Hosting a webinar, a workshop, or a local community event? You can spin up a high-converting landing page in minutes. The goal is to provide key information and capture registrations. Our AI can build a single-page site with a clear call-to-action, a speaker bio section, an agenda, and an integrated registration form.

• Key Sections: A hero with a countdown timer, an “About the Event” block, speaker profiles, and a prominent registration form.
• 3D Effects: Use subtle scroll animations to guide visitors down the page toward the registration button. Our Draftly 3D Effects Guide shows you how to use motion without distracting from the core message.
• Conversion Focus: Since it’s a single page with one goal, conversion rates are often much higher—studies show focused landing pages can outperform homepage links by over 150% for paid ad campaigns.

A Startup "Coming Soon" Page

Validating a business idea before you build the full product is crucial. A “coming soon” page is the perfect tool for this. Use the free trial to create a page that explains your value proposition and includes an email signup form to build a waitlist. This is how you gauge interest and build a day-one audience.

• Prompt Example: *"Build a coming soon landing page for 'NutriPaws,' a D2C subscription box for healthy, organic dog food in India. The tone should be trustworthy and warm. Include a section explaining the benefits and an email signup to get early access."
• Lead Magnet: The signup form is your most important asset. You can capture emails directly in Draftly and export them when you're ready to launch.
• Data Point: Startups that build an email list of at least 1,000 people before launching are twice as likely to reach profitability in their first year.

The Few Limitations of the Free Plan (And When to Upgrade)

We believe in complete transparency. While the free plan is incredibly powerful, there are a few key differences compared to our paid plans. These limitations are primarily related to branding and professional hosting.

What you can't do on the free plan:

• Connect a Custom Domain: Your site will be live on a `yoursite.draftly.space` subdomain. To use your own `yourbrand.com` domain, you'll need to upgrade to a paid plan.
• Remove Draftly Branding: Free sites include a small, unobtrusive "Made with Draftly" badge in the footer.
• Access Advanced Analytics: While you can see basic visitor counts, our detailed analytics dashboard with traffic sources, conversion rates, and user behavior is a premium feature.
• Use Team Collaboration Features: Inviting team members to edit and manage sites is reserved for our paid plans.
