What Jigsy does

Jigsy is a cloud-hosted website builder and content management platform that enables individuals and small businesses to create responsive websites through a browser-based WYSIWYG visual editor, without requiring installation or coding knowledge. Operated by Viviti Technologies, Inc., a British Columbia corporation, the platform is delivered as a fully managed SaaS product on the company's own dedicated servers with a self-updating system that handles security patches automatically, redundant fail-over, encrypted storage, and 24/7 monitoring. The product surface includes a library of modular components spanning content blocks, image galleries, navigation, blogs/comments, HTML/JavaScript embedding, and pre-built integrations with Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Reddit, Google Maps, PayPal, and eBay. Documentation is provided via a public wiki, and the platform is supported by a team of approximately 11-50 employees based in Parksville, BC.

The company monetizes through a freemium subscription model with three paid tiers: Starter at $3.99/month (500 MB, 10 pages, 1 website), Basic at $7.99/month (2 GB, 99 pages, 3 websites), and Premium at $10.99/month (5 GB, unlimited pages), each discounted from a higher "regular" price. Customers can build a site for free with no credit card required, creating a product-led growth funnel. The customer base is horizontal and long-tailed, spanning personal blogs, small business sites, news portals, bands, churches, pet groomers, artists, and musicians. Distribution is entirely self-serve via jigsy.com with no sales team; marketing is conducted through a company blog, the public wiki, and organic social channels on Twitter and Facebook.

Jigsy is a privately held, bootstrapped company — no external funding rounds, acquisitions, parent ownership, or institutional backing appear in the public record. Founder/Owner Dave Shworan and General Counsel Craig Shworan anchor the leadership team, and the company has operated continuously since 2007-2008, evidenced by active copyright through 2026. The business has no disclosed patents, awards, regulatory actions, AI/ML capabilities, developer APIs, or third-party enterprise integrations beyond consumer-facing social and payments embeds.
