A sentence in, a live app out — that’s the whole idea. Today, Hatchable is generally available to everyone.
Hatchable is a place to build real software by talking to the AI you already use. Connect Hatchable as a connector in Claude, Codex, Cursor, ChatGPT, or any tool that speaks MCP, then describe what you want. The AI writes the code and ships it. You get back a real URL with a real backend behind it — not a mockup, not a sandbox that disappears when you close the tab.
No servers to rent. No deploy pipeline to wire up. No credit card to start.
What you actually get
Every project comes with the pieces a working app needs, already connected — so your AI can reach for them instead of asking you to set them up:
- A live URL with HTTPS — every project is online at
your-app.hatchable.sitethe moment it deploys, and you can point your own custom domain at it. - A private database — a real Postgres for every project, with migrations handled for you.
- Sign-in that just works — auth, accounts, and invite-by-email flows without the usual plumbing.
- Email — send transactional and one-click-action email straight from your app.
- Background work — cron jobs and a scheduler for digests, reminders, and slow tasks that shouldn’t block a request.
- File storage — upload, serve, and expire files without standing up a bucket.
- AI, built in — call any model with one line, ask questions about images, search your own data by meaning, and build agents with tools.
- Its own API & MCP — every app can expose endpoints and MCP tools, so other software (and other agents) can use what you build.
The point isn’t the checklist. The point is that you stop gluing services together and start describing the thing you want — then iterate on it by talking.
What people are building
Because the backend is included, the range is wide: internal tools and dashboards, customer-facing products, CRMs and back-office apps, booking pages and storefronts, AI agents that do real work, and small utilities that would never have been worth the setup before. If you can describe it in a sentence, it’s a reasonable place to start.
Want a running start? The Apps marketplace has finished, working software you can fork and make your own in a click — and the idea gallery has prompts you can paste straight into your AI.
Free to start
You can build, deploy, and share on the free tier — no card, no credits, no trial clock. When an app outgrows it, paid plans add more capacity and custom domains. Either way you’re on one platform with one bill, not a dozen.
Why now
We’ve spent months in the hands of early builders, watching what breaks and what sticks. The platform is stable, the runtime is fast, and the path from idea to live app is short enough that it’s worth opening to everyone. So we are.
If you’ve been waiting for a sign to build the thing you keep describing out loud — this is it. Point your AI at Hatchable and ask it to build.
