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.
