Automattic has launched Spacefast, a deployment platform for websites and applications produced with coding agents. Rather than bundling one model and interface, it supplies the operational layer around generated code: databases, authentication, file uploads, email, analytics and content delivery.
Users can connect a Git repository or work through agents and tools including ChatGPT, Claude, Hermes, OpenClaw, Cursor and others. That choice distinguishes Spacefast from services such as Lovable and Emergent, which combine conversational generation with hosting in one product. It also means users must decide which builder and workflow fit their project.
The project began during an Automattic hackathon and was soft-launched in September. Early uses include internal mockups, slideshows and promotional sites. Automattic says its existing infrastructure could later add WordPress integration, WooCommerce and analytics, while its enterprise experience may appeal to companies trying to consolidate many small AI-generated sites.
Spacefast enters a crowded market that also overlaps with design and productivity products from Figma, Canva and Notion. Easy generation does not guarantee that people will maintain an app after experimenting with it, a retention risk the product lead acknowledged. The platform lowers deployment friction, but teams remain responsible for reviewing generated code, permissions and data handling before putting an application into production.
