Launch a directory business next weekend with a modular Next.js kit
Core modules cover the public listing area, a full admin dashboard with controls and real-time analytics, and activity tracking that logs how visitors use the directory.
Shared modules and optional extensions let you add only the capabilities your niche needs, and each module is documented individually with a learn-more page.
Built-In AI-powered search, sitemap generation and structured pages give directory listings the crawlable structure that search engines reward.
Local business directories can embed maps and lead-capture forms directly into listing pages, turning directory traffic into inbound enquiries for listed businesses.
Describe an app in chat and ship it
Describe your product in natural language and AI agents produce a functioning app rather than snippets or mockups.
Frontend and backend are generated together, so apps have real logic, data handling, and connectivity, not just UI.
Generated apps are deployed to a live URL right away, so you can share and test without setting up infrastructure.
The output is a standard codebase you can download, edit, and move into your own toolchain or repository.
