Duda
Website builder purpose-built for agencies and freelancers — white-label editor, client management, and fast Core Web Vitals.
About
Duda is a website builder aimed squarely at web professionals rather than DIY site owners: agencies, freelancers, and SaaS platforms that build sites for clients at volume. The Agency plan and above offer a fully white-labeled editor (your brand, your login URL), in-app client collaboration with visual commenting, team roles and permissions, and automated client billing from one dashboard.
Technically it is solid: AWS hosting with a Cloudflare CDN, with independent audits finding Google Lighthouse mobile scores above 90 (provider-furnished benchmark — treat as provider-claimed). The Widget Builder and data connections (Airtable, Google Sheets, custom REST APIs) can generate hundreds of programmatic pages, and recent plans include an AI SEO assistant, AI content assistant, and AI site-building assistant. Plans run Basic $19–$25/mo (1 site), Team $29–$39/mo, Agency $52–$69/mo (4 sites), White Label $149–$199/mo, plus Custom; ecommerce and bookings are separate add-ons ($7–$45/mo). No free plan — 14-day trial.

Use cases
Works with
Trust score — 8/10
Scored 8/10 (VERIFIED tier, metrics-v1). Evidence: consistent 2026 coverage across independent agency-focused reviews confirming the white-label workflow, plan ladder, and AI assistants. Strengths: the only mainstream builder designed for agency delivery end-to-end, fast hosting, unlimited storage even on lower plans. Docked for: (1) modular pricing — ecommerce and bookings cost extra on top of already premium plans; (2) the grid-based editor can feel restrictive vs. Webflow for design control; (3) no free plan and the Lighthouse 90+ claim is provider-furnished, not independently reproduced here. License: proprietary SaaS, closed-source.
