The AI app builder that runs what it builds.
Describe the app you need - a CRM, a client portal, a booking system, a SaaS MVP. An AI agent builds it and runs it on our own cloud: real backend, database, logins, and hosting included. Break something? Rewind the whole app, database and all, to a saved moment.

From description to working app
Three steps, no code. Most first versions run in minutes.
Describe it
Say what the app should do, in plain words. "A CRM for my roofing crews - leads, jobs, statuses, and who owes us money."
Playcode asks smart questions: What data? Who logs in? What should happen automatically? It's a conversation, not a form.
Watch the agent build
The AI agent writes real code: the screens, the database, the logic. Watch tasks complete one by one.
This isn't a template. Your workflow, your fields, your rules - it's YOUR app, built from scratch.
It goes live
One click and the app is running on Playcode Cloud - backend, database, and HTTPS already working. Share the link, add your team, start using it.
Need customer logins or a custom domain? Connect it and you are done - no separate hosting to set up or pay for.
Your website is live!
The runtime is included. Your app is live from day one.
Every app gets a real backend, a database, logins, and automatic HTTPS on infrastructure Playcode owns and operates. Not a prototype, not an export you still have to host - the working software your team and customers use.
Still stitching together hosting, auth, and a database? Playcode ships them with the app - one project, one runtime.
Change boldly. Rewind instantly.
Before risky changes - and any time you ask - Playcode snapshots your entire app. If an update breaks the workflow your team depends on, rewind: code, files, and database come back together, exactly as they were, in about a second. That is only possible because Playcode owns the machines your app runs on. Every change is also committed to git on separate infrastructure, so your history survives anything.

Why choose Playcode over other AI app builders?
No-code builders make you assemble the app by hand. AI coding tools generate code and leave you to run it. Playcode does both jobs: it builds the app and runs it - backend, database, and rollback included.
No-Code App Builders
- You assemble the app by dragging and configuring
- Weeks to learn the editor before you ship
- Complex logic gets harder as the app grows
- Locked into their runtime and pricing
AI Coding Tools
- Generate code - hosting and deploys are on you
- You wire up the database, logins, and backups
- Made for developers, not operators
- When it breaks, you debug it yourself
Custom Development
- Months to deliver
- Every change is a new invoice
- Dependent on their schedule
- Handoff risk when they move on

Built by people without developers
"It started as a booking page. Now it is the system my company runs on - schedules, invoices, customer records. When I need a change, I describe it in chat and it is live the same day."
"I launched a working MVP - logins, subscriptions, a real database - without hiring a developer. Investors clicked through the product, not a slide deck."
"We replaced a $300-a-month tool with an internal tracker shaped like how we actually work. The team lives in it every day."

How credits work
Credits are used when AI helps you. Simple edits cost less, complex features cost more.
100 credits = ~20 web pages
Most users never run out. 100 credits = lots of building.
Frequently Asked Questions
Most tools do half the job. No-code builders give you an editor - you assemble the app. AI code generators write code - you host and maintain it. Playcode AI plans and builds the app, and Playcode Cloud runs it: hosting, database, logins, HTTPS, and background jobs. And because Playcode owns the machines, you can rewind the whole app - code, files, and database together - to a saved moment.
Yes. Describe what the app stores and who signs in, and Playcode builds it with a real database, authentication, and user roles on Playcode Cloud. Client portals, CRMs, dashboards, booking systems, and SaaS MVPs all run with real data.
No-code builders replace code with a visual editor you still have to master - the building is manual. In Playcode you describe the app in chat and the AI agent does the building. You refine with plain language, visual editing, or direct code access - and the runtime is included.
No. You describe, the agent builds - everything happens in plain language, and any language works. And if you do write code, the full source is right there to edit whenever you want precision.
Yes. Playcode never hides the source: real React, Vue, or HTML you can open, read, and change by hand. Let AI do the heavy lifting, then fine-tune yourself when it matters.
A first working version typically takes 5-30 minutes. After that, changes are conversational: describe what you want, watch it apply, publish.
Yes - completely. Export the full source anytime and run it on Vercel, Netlify, AWS, or your own server. Nothing is locked in.
Export your project code when you need to audit, hand off, or move. While the app runs on Playcode Cloud, the platform also provides the managed runtime: hosting, database, jobs, HTTPS, snapshots, and rollback under supported plan limits.
Your projects are private by default on paid plans. EU-based bare-metal hosting (Hetzner), HTTPS everywhere, daily encrypted backups, single-engineer production access. SOC 2 audit and full GDPR alignment in progress (EU data residency and right-to-erasure live today). We do not train models on your code or content. Full overview at /security.
Yes. Full functionality on phone, tablet, and desktop. Build, edit, and publish from anywhere.
Email [email protected] and a real person responds. There is also a help center with guides and a changelog tracking every update we ship.

The AI app builder for real business software
What can you build with the Playcode AI app builder?
Playcode builds web apps, internal tools, CRMs, client portals, dashboards, booking systems, inventory trackers, and SaaS MVPs from plain-language descriptions. Describe the outcome, and Playcode AI turns it into screens, data, logic, and editable code.
Unlike an app maker that stops at a prototype, Playcode Cloud runs the finished app: backend services, a real database, logins, files, HTTPS, background jobs, snapshots, and rollback on the supported Cloud path.
AI app builder vs no-code platforms
No-code platforms like Bubble, Adalo, or Glide replace programming with visual editors you still need to learn. Playcode replaces the building itself: describe the app in chat, watch the AI agent build it, then refine it in plain language, visually, or in code.
Use Playcode when you want to go from idea to a working app without hiring a developer or spending weeks in a drag-and-drop editor.
