ScrollHaus vs MotionSites: Pricing, Source Code and Previews Compared (2026)

Disclosure: ScrollHaus publishes this comparison, so treat it as a vendor's view. MotionSites details come from its public pages and pricing page, read on October 4, 2026. Prices and plans change, so check the live pages before you buy.

Quick answer: ScrollHaus or MotionSites?

Choose MotionSites if you want a large library of copy-ready prompts, sections and animated backgrounds, with source copy on its designs, and you are happy to assemble pages from those parts. Choose ScrollHaus if you want to watch the complete animated website scroll first, in full screen and for free, and then take its original HTML and build instructions into Lovable, Bolt, Claude, Codex or Replit so the result matches what you saw.

• Pick MotionSites when prompts, sections and backgrounds are what you need and you plan to iterate with the AI.
• Pick ScrollHaus when you need the motion to behave exactly like the preview, or you want to read and edit the code.
• Pick neither yet if you have not decided on a visual direction. Browse both public galleries first.

ScrollHaus vs MotionSites at a glance

Both products lead with motion-heavy websites for AI-assisted builds. The difference is the unit you buy: prompts, sections and backgrounds in one case, complete working websites in the other.

Pricing compared (checked October 4, 2026)

MotionSites lists three ways to pay. A yearly plan is $279 per year and includes unlimited prompts, Apps access, animated backgrounds, sections, 40+ templates, its MCP, community access, personal and client work rights and priority support. A lifetime plan is $399 one-time, shown as reduced from $759 during a founding-member sale. Prompt packs cost $49 each and include 2 to 10 prompt downloads for one-off projects.

ScrollHaus lists three plans. Quarterly is $49.99 every three months, yearly is $199 per year and lifetime is $299 one-time. Each plan unlocks every website in the library and its build specification, and the yearly and lifetime plans add priority on request threads. Quarterly and yearly plans can be cancelled at any time.

What the numbers mean in practice

• One project: a MotionSites prompt pack at $49 is the cheapest single purchase. ScrollHaus quarterly at $49.99 covers three months and the full library, which is better value if you will use more than a couple of designs.
• A year of client work: $199 against $279. The difference is $80, which matters more if you also pay for an AI builder subscription.
• Lifetime: $299 against $399 at today's sale price. If MotionSites returns to $759 the gap widens.

What you actually get: a prompt or a website

A MotionSites purchase gives you prompts to paste into an AI builder. Its founder has also said that each design now has a "Copy source code" button next to the prompt, so you can either remix with a prompt or copy code that works as it is. Prompts are fast and suit people who want the model to do the building and adjust the result in conversation. The trade-off is that a prompt's output depends on how the downstream tool reads it, and two people pasting the same prompt into different builders will not get the same page.

A ScrollHaus purchase gives you the complete working page. For portable entries the build kit includes the original HTML, CSS and animation code with hosted asset paths (including the frame sequences behind scroll-driven film heroes), plus a prompt that tells your AI builder to keep it as one standalone document. The scroll timing, easing and layering come across as written, because the code is the source of truth. Whichever library you use, check whether the source you copy is a single component or a full page with its media and scroll engine.

That difference shows up when motion is the point. A scroll-scrubbed hero, a pinned horizontal gallery or a counter tied to scroll position depends on exact numbers, and ScrollHaus is built around complete pages with their media.

Previewing before you pay

Judging an animated website from a cover image is unreliable. On ScrollHaus any website opens in a full-screen viewer with a live scrolling version, without signing in, so you can scroll the real page on your phone or laptop and check the mobile layout, load behaviour and pacing. Only copying, downloading and viewing the source need a plan.

MotionSites shows public previews of its designs, with the prompt itself held back for paying members. Whichever you use, spend ten minutes scrolling your shortlist on a real phone before deciding.

AI builder support

MotionSites names Lovable, Bolt, Cursor and Claude on its homepage. ScrollHaus builds its copy button around Lovable, Bolt, Codex, Claude and Replit. In practice both approaches work in any tool that accepts a long prompt. Source-based builds are more sensitive to the builder's file handling, which is why ScrollHaus tells the builder not to split the page into components, because a document-level scroll engine breaks when it is split up.

Licence, client work and what to verify

MotionSites states personal and client work rights on its paid plans. For ScrollHaus, read the terms page for the current wording on commercial and client use before shipping a paid project. With either product, you remain responsible for the final site: replace copy and imagery, check accessibility and reduced motion, test on a mid-range phone and confirm that third-party fonts, media and trademarks are cleared.

Which should you choose?

Freelancers and agencies

If you build several client sites a year, a plan that unlocks a whole library is cheaper than paying per pack. Compare the yearly prices and check the client-use terms on both sites. ScrollHaus's source-first approach is useful when a client wants to see the real motion in a review call before you build.

Founders shipping one landing page

A single prompt pack from MotionSites may be enough. If you want the exact motion of a page you have already watched, ScrollHaus's quarterly plan is a low-commitment way to get it.

Developers who read the code

If you want to read, edit and own the implementation, source is the better deliverable. A prompt leaves the architecture to the model.

A fair 15-minute test

1. Pick one design you like in each library.
2. Open both on your phone and scroll them for two minutes each.
3. Paste the MotionSites prompt, and the ScrollHaus build kit, into the same AI builder.
4. Compare the results with the original for scroll timing, mobile layout and load time.
5. Decide which workflow removed the slowest step for you.
