An AI Website Builder for Nonprofits That Don't Have a Web Team

Most small nonprofits are run by a handful of volunteers, and the website is usually whoever's willing to fight with WordPress on a weekend. That's the actual context behind "website builder for nonprofits" searches: someone was just handed the job of getting the organization online, doesn't have a design background, and doesn't have a budget for an agency.

Nova is built around describing what you need rather than assembling it block by block. For a nonprofit, that might be "a website for a community food bank with our mission, how to volunteer, and how to donate," and Nova will generate a site structure and draft copy around that description, along with AI-generated previews of the features it's proposing, before you commit to anything. You can preview the whole thing without creating an account.

One honest limitation worth stating up front: Nova builds the website itself, the pages, the copy, the structure, but it isn't a donation processor. If your nonprofit accepts online donations, you'll still need a payment processor like PayPal, Stripe, or a platform such as Donorbox, and you can link to that from your Nova-built site the same way most nonprofit sites do. The same goes for volunteer sign-up tools if you're already using a dedicated one.

Publishing to a free getnova.pro subdomain costs nothing, which matters for organizations working with no marketing budget at all. If the nonprofit later wants its own domain, like yourorg.org, that's available on the paid plan, which also handles the domain purchase.

FAQ

Can more than one volunteer edit the site later?

The building and editing process happens through Nova's own account system, so anyone with access to that account can make changes; it doesn't require a developer's involvement to update.

Does Nova handle tax receipts or donor records?

No. Nova builds the website; donation processing, receipts, and donor management still need a dedicated tool that you link to from the site.

Is the free subdomain permanent?

You can publish to a free getnova.pro subdomain without an account, but keeping a site published long-term and saving your project requires creating one.

Describe your organization's mission to Nova and see a working site before you decide on anything else.
