Base44
Key Applications
- Rapid MVP or prototype building using natural language prompts.
- Building internal tools, dashboards, or business automation applications.
- Launching web apps with integrated backend (auth, database, storage) without dev ops overhead.
- Hosting web applications with custom domains and features like analytics, payment, and workflow automation
Who It’s For
Base44 is for non-technical founders, startups, small teams, or internal-tool builders who want to bring an idea to life quickly without managing servers or writing boilerplate code. It addresses pain points like slow iterations, complex stack integrations, backend setup, and deployment overhead. Users who need to show something working fast—whether to test product ideas or automate workflows—benefit most. Also useful for businesses that want production-ready infrastructure (auth, data, hosting) without hiring full backend teams.
