The product offers two creation paths: an AI builder (Jimdo Dolphin) that generates a website in minutes based on a questionnaire, and a manual editor (Jimdo Creator) for users who want more control over layout and code. Sites include hosting, a custom domain, SSL, and basic SEO tools.

The company was founded in 2007 by Matthias Henze, Christian Springub, and Fridtjof Detzner. In 2024, the founders repurchased shares from their US investor Spectrum Equity, making Jimdo fully founder-owned again. Over 32 million websites have been created on the platform. Jimdo hosts data in German data centers and markets itself as GDPR-compliant by default. Pricing starts with a free plan (5 pages, Jimdo subdomain) and goes up to $45/month for the VIP tier. The product is available in seven languages and targets micro-businesses primarily in Germany and across Europe.
