Gleam

A website you edit on the page

Gleam lets your staff change any words or photos right where they appear. Every change is recorded, so anything can be put back.

No admin screens to learn

Most website editors make you fill in forms on one screen and check the result on another. With Gleam you sign in, open the page you want to change and type.

Mistakes are easy to undo. Change history lists every edit with a Put back button.

How it works

Step 01

Press Edit this page

Sign in and the edit bar appears at the bottom of every page. Everything you can change is outlined.

Step 02

Click and change it

Click text to type over it. Click a photo to upload a new one or pick one you've used before. Click a button to change its words and where it goes.

Step 03

Save changes

Visitors see the update straight away, and the change is added to the history.

Everything a small organisation needs

AI Powered Engagement

Add a pop-up chat window and let AI engage visitors to your site.

Lists you can rearrange

Programmes, team, gallery, shop items: add, reorder, hide or delete them on the page.

News with scheduling

Write an article on its own page and set a publish date. It stays hidden until that day.

Photos sized for you

Uploads are resized and converted to WebP automatically, so pages stay quick to load.

Contact form

Messages are kept in the admin area and can be emailed to you as well.

Editors and permissions

Administrators add and remove editors. New people set their own password when they first sign in.

Search-friendly

Set each page's search-engine title and description from the edit bar.

Privacy-friendly stats

Privacy by default with our non-tracking site statistics. Get all the usual data on site traffic without compromising visitors privacy.

Updates never overwrite your edits

Gleam runs from a single Docker image. Your words and photos are stored separately from the site itself, so we can update Gleam without touching your content. Fonts are hosted with the site, so visitors' browsers make no requests to Google.

Your website, edited where you see it.
