Our study did not include Base44 or Durable, so this page compares what each builder leaves in a site and what its sites tend to get wrong, not measured outcomes. Scan a site below to see which of the two built it.
| Base44 | Durable | |
|---|---|---|
| Type | AI builder (site written from a prompt) | AI builder (site written from a prompt) |
| Default hosting | *.base44.app | durable.co |
Base44How to spot it: Look at the address: *.base44.app is Base44 hosting.
What usually goes wrong: The app shell is empty for crawlers. Base44 renders everything in the browser. Search engines and link previews see a page with no text, so the description you wrote in the editor may be all that reaches them.
DurableHow to spot it: Search the page source for a generator meta tag naming Durable.
What usually goes wrong: Copy that says nothing specific. Generated text is grammatical and generic. It rarely names the town you serve, what you charge, or what makes you different, which is exactly what a local customer is looking for.
Usually, yes. Each leaves its own traces: Base44 on *.base44.app and in its scripts, Durable on durable.co and in its own markers. Paste the URL in the scanner above and it names the builder with the evidence it found.
Neither decides it alone. What matters is whether the finished page has a real heading, a meta description and content that search engines can read without running JavaScript. Scan your site to check those.
Not by being AI-built. The problems we see most are defaults nobody changed: titles, badges, blocked zoom, and database keys used without access rules. Each is a short fix once you know it is there.
