Dropbase Product Information

Dropbase AI | Build Software Faster With AI is a self-hosted developer platform that lets you build web apps and automation software quickly using AI. It combines natural language declarative UI, drag-and-drop layout, and code-level customization to reduce development time while staying in your control. The platform emphasizes interoperability with your existing tools and codebases, enabling rapid prototyping, testing, and deployment of internal applications.


How it works

  1. Declare apps with natural language. Describe desired behavior and UI and Dropbase AI instantiates relevant UI components.
  2. Adjust UI via drag-and-drop. Move components around to achieve the exact experience you want.
  3. Surgically customize logic with code. Generate the underlying code from descriptions, review/edit, and approve.
  4. Test, debug, and preview. Run code, inspect traces for edge cases, and iterate.
  5. Preview and launch. See how the app looks to end users and share or deploy when ready.

Core Capabilities

  • AI-assisted app building: generate UI components and business logic from natural language descriptions.
  • Self-hosted: deploy a private instance for security, compliance, and control.
  • Programmatic UI and code generation: hybrid approach combining declarative UI and editable code.
  • Live preview: test and debug within the platform and preview end-user experience before launch.
  • Reusable code and integrations: reuse existing functions, APIs, or ORM models within your app.
  • CI/CD friendly: works with your existing development workflows and tooling.
  • Data-backed components: built-in data editors, admin panels, and dashboards.
  • Cloud operations: manage and monitor cloud infrastructure from within the platform.
  • Notifications: send templated customer notifications triggered by app actions.
  • Python-first options: write Python functions and leverage libraries like NumPy and pandas.
