beehiiv announced the expansion of its Website Builder beta to all paid subscribers on June 13, 2025, marking a significant milestone in the newsletter platform’s evolution into a comprehensive digital publishing solution.

From Beta to Broader Access

The Website Builder was initially available exclusively to Max and Enterprise plan users when it launched in beta in January 2025. According to from a beehiiv’s spokesperson, thousands of users created websites during the five-month testing period while the company gathered feedback and refined the platform.

“Last summer, we acquired Typedream, a flexible website builder built by an incredible team, with one goal: to help our customers build beautiful and dynamic websites with ease,” – Tyler stated in the company’s announcement email to users.

The expansion makes the website builder accessible to all paid beehiiv subscribers, including those on the Launch and Scale plans. Free users can access the feature by upgrading with this special discount link for 20% off their first three months.

Typedream Integration Powers New Features

beehiiv’s website building capabilities stem from its June 2024 acquisition of Typedream, an AI-powered website builder founded by five Indonesian engineers who launched from the Y Combinator Winter 2020 cohort. The Typedream team won Product Hunt’s #1 Product of the Month in July 2021 and supported tens of thousands of active websites before the acquisition.

The integrated Website Builder offers several advanced features built on Typedream’s foundation. Users can connect every form on their website to unique post-signup journeys, build and launch custom popups anywhere on their site, and control website metadata, link structure, and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) settings. The platform also includes version control functionality, allowing users to roll back changes if needed.

Streamlined Design Process

The Website Builder features a guided onboarding process that reduces website creation time significantly. Users select from multiple templates, choose color themes, and customize fonts through a drag-and-drop interface that requires no coding knowledge.

TG, Head of Partnerships at beehiiv, emphasized the platform’s positioning advantage in a partner communication: “It puts beehiiv in a class of its own by combining a world-class newsletter platform with a powerful, integrated website builder. Most platforms that try to add email as a secondary feature fail because they don’t understand its complexity.”

Market Differentiation Strategy

The Website Builder integration represents beehiiv’s strategy to differentiate itself in the competitive newsletter platform market by offering comprehensive publishing tools. Founded by former Morning Brew employees, beehiiv has focused on growth-oriented features that helped Morning Brew reach over 4 million subscribers.

The platform’s approach contrasts with competitors by building website functionality as a core feature rather than an add-on service. This integration allows content creators to manage both their newsletter distribution and website presence from a single platform.

Growth Tools and Monetization

Beyond basic website building, the new platform includes subscriber growth tools designed to convert website visitors into newsletter subscribers. Features include targeted signup flows, customizable subscription forms, and Growth Audit Tool functionality that provides personalized newsletter optimization recommendations.

beehiiv also announced additional tools during the rollout, including enhanced analytics capabilities inherited from the Typedream acquisition. These tools help users track website performance and conversion rates alongside their newsletter metrics.

Pricing and Availability

The Website Builder beta remains available to Max and Enterprise subscribers at their existing plan rates. Launch and Scale plan users gain access as part of their paid subscriptions without additional fees. The promotional discount for free users upgrading represents a limited-time offer tied to the general availability announcement.

Users can access the Website Builder through the beehiiv dashboard under Design → Website (Beta). The company continues to label the feature as beta while finalizing remaining technical improvements and addressing edge cases identified during the testing period.

beehiiv has not announced a timeline for removing the beta designation, but the company indicated it will continue adding templates and features throughout the testing period based on user feedback.
