AI App Builder

Describe what you need in plain English and get a working app with databases, forms, and workflows. No coding, backend management, or deployment headaches.
Try this prompt
Build me a project tracker for my agency—each project has a client name, start date, deliverables checklist, status dropdown (Not Started / In Progress / Done), and assigned team member. I need a view showing active projects only, sorted by start date. Add a form to create new projects.

What You Get (No Fluff)

Describe It, Get It

Type something like 'I need a CRM for freelance clients with contact info, project status, and invoice tracking'—you'll see a working app with tables, forms, and views in about 2 minutes. No drag-and-drop fiddling. The AI figures out the structure.

Real Database Behind the Scenes

Your data lives in actual tables with relationships, not a glorified spreadsheet. Add foreign keys, set up one-to-many links, filter records—all the stuff you'd build in SQL, except you're clicking buttons and writing prompts instead.

Forms That Actually Work

Need to collect info? The builder generates input forms with validation (email format, required fields, date pickers) and connects them directly to your database. No middleware, no API duct tape.

Workflows Without Code

Set up triggers: when a new order comes in, send an email. When a task is marked complete, update the status in another table. Conditional logic you'd normally code yourself, now configurable in plain language.

Mobile-Friendly by Default

71% of internal tool usage happens on phones or tablets (yes, really). Your app adapts to any screen size automatically—no separate mobile build required.

User Roles and Permissions

Control who sees what. Admins get full access, team members see their projects only, clients view read-only dashboards. Row-level security built in, no coding required.

Tips from the Top-Performing Apps

1. Start with One Painful Process

Don't try to rebuild your entire business in one app. Pick the thing you're tracking in Google Sheets or email threads—client onboarding, equipment checkout, bug reports—and build that first. Once it's working, expand.

2. Name Your Fields Like You'd Say Them Out Loud

If you call it 'customer name' in conversation, don't label the field 'client_identifier_primary.' Use natural language—it makes the app easier to use and easier to prompt the AI to modify later.

3. Test Your Workflows Before Rolling Out

Create dummy records, trigger your automations, see what emails get sent. We've seen teams discover logic bugs in testing that would've caused chaos in production. Better to catch it when stakes are low.

4. Don't Over-Engineer Permissions at First

You can always tighten access later. Launch with broader permissions for your core team, gather feedback on who actually needs what, then lock it down. Premature permission rules slow everything.

5. Integrate Early with Tools You Already Use

Connect Slack for notifications, Zapier to sync with other apps, webhooks to push data elsewhere. The apps that see 27% higher adoption rates are the ones that fit into existing workflows instead of replacing them.

Who's Building With This

Operations Managers

Build the internal tools IT keeps pushing to next quarter. Inventory systems, equipment booking, time-off trackers—ship it yourself this month.

Startup Founders

Your MVP needs an admin panel, a customer portal, maybe a support ticket system. Build all three before you even hire a developer.

Freelancers & Agencies

Stop juggling client info across Notion, Gmail, and your memory. One app with contacts, projects, invoices, and deliverables in one place.

Department Heads

IT said it'll take 6 months to build your team's workflow tool. You don't have 6 months. Build it yourself, prove it works, then hand it off if needed.
