> Paste any page's URL and choose — borrow its style, rebuild its structure, or clone it one-to-one.

Seen a page you love? Paste its URL into chat and Genesis can use it three different ways —
it always asks which, because the difference matters.

## How to trigger it

Paste a URL with cloning intent:

- *"clone this: https://example.com"*
- *"make my landing like this one https://…"*

## The three scopes

Genesis asks **"How should we use example.com?"** with three chips:

| Chip | What you get |
| --- | --- |
| **Inspire** — hero section in our style | Only the palette, typography, and general feel. Your layout, your content. |
| **Rebuild design** — similar structure, adapted content | The same section structure and layout — with copy adapted to *your* brand, not copied. |
| **Full clone** — one to one | A faithful reproduction of the page's structure and content. |

Pick a chip and the build starts. For *Rebuild* and *Clone*, Genesis captures a screenshot of
the page (waiting for its animations to settle) so the visual reference is accurate.

## Good to know

- **Images aren't hotlinked.** Cloning regenerates the page's images as fresh ones based on
  what they showed — you don't end up depending on someone else's image hosting.
- **It builds onto your current page** — navigate to the page you want it on first.
- **What can't be cloned:** login-gated pages (the fetch fails with a hint), live dynamic
  content, videos, and working form backends (forms come through as visual structure you then
  wire up).
- If the site blocks fetching, you can also copy its HTML and
  [paste it directly](/capabilities/html-paste/).

:::caution
You can technically reference any public page — but cloning someone's site wholesale can
infringe their copyright and brand. Clone your own properties; *inspire* from everyone else.
