Duda, a leading website builder for digital agencies and SaaS companies, today unveiled new features for its AI Assistant: AI sections and AI alt text. These additions, alongside Duda's recently introduced AI SEO tool and AI content creation tool, establish Duda's AI Assistant as the only solution embedded in a website platform that is designed specifically for agency workflows, empowering digital marketing agencies to launch high-performing websites at scale at unparalleled speeds.


Duda's AI sections tool automatically generates new site sections with suggested design, layout, copy, and images from a short user-provided prompt in just a few clicks. This feature drastically reduces the time needed to lay out the page, write copy, and select images.  Now, content sections can be tailored and stylized in seconds. 


Similarly, Duda's AI alt text tool boosts productivity by enabling the creation of alt text for all site images at once. Users can generate alt text in multiple languages for images lacking tags or for all site images, streamlining the process of optimizing websites for SEO and accessibility. 



"Duda's AI Assistant is a transformative tool for agencies, supercharging their productivity to build high-performing websites at scale," stated Duda CEO and Co-founder, Itai Sadan. "By accelerating the website development process, the AI Assistant helps agencies deliver better client outcomes with the team they already have. This not only improves client retention, but also allows agencies to expand their market reach, serve a more diverse range of clients, and create a path to upsell more advanced services."


In 2023, Duda released its
AI Content and AI SEO assistant tools. The AI content creation tool allows users to produce relevant, contextual web copy, optimize existing content, and ensure text alignment with the desired design and tone — all directly within the Duda platform. The AI SEO tool, launched in late 2023, simplifies SEO metadata creation and site optimization by allowing agencies to generate meta titles and descriptions for all sites pages from a central dashboard.


Designed with agencies and SaaS companies in mind, Duda is the only website building platform that offers client management features for its AI Assistant. This means that agencies can stay in control of their clients' experience and manage their level of access, deciding which AI tools clients can have access to. Agencies can use Duda’s AI Assistant to support the offering of additional services such as SEO or content, increasing revenue, and client stickiness and retention. 


Josh Neimark, CEO at
Fix8 Media, a website design and development agency, highlighted the value of Duda's AI Assistant. "It's an indispensable solution that fills a critical gap in the industry's toolkit," Neimark said. "It allows us to generate SEO metadata up to nine times faster and get client sites live faster with AI content population, so we can offer comprehensive services to every client, regardless of budget. We also use the AI Assistant to speed up our internal workflows and offer access to the tool as an upsell to clients, so they can create new content and optimize new pages on an ongoing basis."


Sadan added, “The rapid adoption of AI has made one thing clear: embracing AI is not a choice, but a necessity to stay competitive. Duda’s AI Assistant gives agencies a formidable advantage – accelerating the entire web building process from content creation to SEO. Our suite of AI tools is essential for any agency looking to deliver superior digital experiences efficiently. And we’re just getting started – more to come on the horizon.”

One of the greatest challenges for SaaS platforms is keeping users engaged long-term. The term “stickiness” refers to a product's ability to retain users and make them want to return. In the context of SaaS platforms, creating a sticky product means that users consistently find value, experience seamless interactions, and continue using the product over time. The following are 7 practical strategies you can take to improve the stickiness of your SaaS solution. 1. Offer websites that help customers build their digital presence One of the most effective ways to make your SaaS platform sticky is by offering websites to your users. Many businesses today need an online presence, and by providing a platform where your customers can easily build and manage their websites, you increase their reliance on your product. When you offer users a website-building solution, you’re helping them create something foundational to their business. Websites, in this case, aren’t just a tool—they become a part of their identity and brand. This deepens their engagement with your platform, as they need your product to maintain and update their site, ultimately making them less likely to churn. Plus, websites naturally encourage frequent updates, content creation, and customer interactions, which means your users will return to your platform regularly. When you can give your users the tools to create something so essential to their business, you make them more dependent on your platform. This creates a higher barrier to exit, as migrating a fully built website to another service is no small task. In fact, websites are some of the stickiest products you can sell, so adding them to your product portfolio can be one of the best decisions you can to keep your customers using your technology for the long haul. 2. Deliver continuous value through product innovation The key to keeping users coming back to your SaaS platform is ensuring that they consistently see value in it. This means not only meeting their immediate needs but also evolving to address their growing demands. Constant product innovation is essential for keeping your users satisfied and invested in your platform. One way to achieve this is through regular updates that add new features or improvements based on user feedback. A SaaS platform that evolves with its users will keep them engaged longer, making it harder for competitors to steal their attention. Encourage user feedback and prioritize updates that create tangible improvements. This creates an ongoing relationship with your users, which boosts stickiness. 3. Offer a multi-product solution Another powerful way to increase your platform’s stickiness is by offering a suite of products or features that integrate well together. When your users adopt multiple products, they are more likely to stay because they become embedded in your ecosystem. The benefits of this strategy are clear. Research shows that once users adopt more than one product, especially when they integrate >4 tools into their workflow, their likelihood of churn decreases significantly. This happens because the more a user integrates into your suite of products, the harder it is for them to switch to a competitor. These users have invested time in learning your ecosystem and rely on it for their day-to-day operations, making it much harder for them to make the switch. 4. Create a personal connection with your users Human connection is one of the most powerful drivers of user retention. People don’t want to feel like they’re using a cold, faceless platform. By offering exceptional customer support, personalized communication, and community engagement, you build a relationship with your users that goes beyond the product itself. Make sure your support team is responsive, knowledgeable, and empathetic. You can also consider offering tailored onboarding experiences to ensure users understand how to make the most of your platform. When users feel like their success matters to you, they are more likely to remain loyal. 5. Leverage data to personalize the user experience Using data to drive personalization is another strategy that can significantly increase the stickiness of your platform. By tracking user behavior and usage patterns, you can tailor the experience to each individual user’s needs. This could mean recommending features they haven’t yet explored or sending them reminders about tools they may not be fully utilizing. Personalization gives users the feeling that the platform was designed specifically for them, making it harder to walk away from. By demonstrating that you understand their unique needs, you can build a stronger connection and ultimately increase retention rates. 6. Focus on seamless integrations and API capabilities To further increase stickiness, consider expanding your product’s ability to integrate with other tools your users already rely on. Whether it’s email marketing software, CRM systems, or social media management tools, seamless integrations add tremendous value by making it easier for users to incorporate your platform into their existing workflows. The more your product can work in tandem with other popular tools, the more indispensable it becomes. In fact, users who depend on integrations are less likely to churn since their entire ecosystem is tied to your platform’s functionality. 7. Encourage user advocacy and community building User advocacy is another powerful tool in building a sticky product. When users feel a sense of community or even ownership over the platform, they become your most passionate promoters. Encourage your users to share their success stories, join community forums, or contribute to product development through beta testing or feedback loops. A thriving user community not only increases user engagement but also creates a sense of loyalty. When users are part of something larger than themselves, they are more likely to remain committed to your platform, reducing churn and increasing lifetime value. Create deep, lasting customer relationships Making your SaaS platform sticky is all about creating a deep, lasting connection with your users. This requires building a platform that continuously delivers value, creating a seamless and personalized experience, and integrating features that keep users coming back. By focusing on product innovation, offering a multi-product ecosystem, and fostering strong user relationships, you’ll be well on your way to reducing churn and boosting user retention. Stickiness isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s essential for long-term success. Focus on creating a platform that users can’t imagine living without, and you’ll see them stick around for the long haul.
