What is Spaceship?
Spaceship is a platform for registering domains and adding the hosting, email and site tools needed to get online. Its AI element is Alf, an assistant that appears in several products. Alf Website Studio builds a site from a chat conversation in which you describe what you want, and the same studio can set up an online store; the home page says a site can be created before signing up. The catalogue also lists an AI receptionist for websites and AI tools for SEO, social media, reviews and ads. Around these sit domain search and transfer, shared and managed WordPress hosting, virtual machines, app deployment from GitHub and Spacemail business email. A setup process called Unbox connects purchased products automatically, and a command bar called Launchpad opens any account area from the keyboard.
