SayLive vs Just Publish
Both publish from your assistant. The difference is the plan and what comes with it.
TL;DR
Just Publish is free for unlimited sites on its own addresses, and MCP publishing works on both tiers. Its $9/month Builder plan adds a custom domain, analytics and no archiving. SayLive costs €99 once per static site with a form, versions, a review link and connecting your own domain. Choose Just Publish if its free limits suit you.
Just Publish accepts a ZIP, a folder or files, and can publish from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor over MCP. There is no need to pay to try that workflow: it is available on Free as well as Builder. Our MCP guide explains the connection.
The free offer has clear boundaries: no custom domain or analytics, 50 MB per site, 500 files and 5 MB per file. Sites are archived after 30 days without traffic. Builder costs $9 per month, includes one custom domain and analytics, raises storage to 200 MB and avoids archiving.
SayLive charges for the publishing step and its surrounding tools in one purchase. Your assistant makes a static site; SayLive adds the contact form, versions, review link and domain connection without a separate hosting account to manage. See what the €99 includes.

Questions
Is SayLive the only way to publish over MCP?
No. Just Publish supports it on Free and Builder, and Netlify, Vercel and Wix also provide official MCP tools for publishing. SayLive focuses on static sites, one payment and included form and review tools. You can see our workflow in the Claude publishing guide.
Which is cheaper for a site without its own domain?
Just Publish Free costs nothing if its limits and inactivity rule work for you. SayLive has a 30-day free trial, then costs €99 once. Paying SayLive makes sense when you want the included publishing, form, versions and review tools, rather than simply a free address.
What does SayLive include for the form and review?
The payment includes 25 form messages and 25 review tickets, alongside 150 publications and 50 MB of media. Top-ups cost €19 each, without automatic renewal. The review link supports screenshots, and versions can be restored or downloaded as ZIP files: see the documentation.
Free for 30 days. Two minutes, no credit card.
