ChatGPT Sites, But With a Database and Logins

ChatGPT Sites is great for a quick page. When you need a real database, user logins, and backend logic — or you are on the free plan or in the EU/UK where Sites is not available — connect Hatchable and ChatGPT deploys a real full-stack app to a live URL, free.

What happens next

Step 1

Connect Hatchable in ChatGPT

Open Hatchable in the ChatGPT app directory and click Connect. Approving creates your free account — on any plan, including free, in every country.

Step 2

Ask for a real app

Describe something Sites cannot do: "Build a client portal with logins and a database of projects, and deploy it on Hatchable." ChatGPT wires up Postgres, auth, and the backend.

Step 3

Get a live URL

ChatGPT deploys it and hands back a live {slug}.hatchable.site URL. Real database, real logins, real backend — free.

ChatGPT Sites vs Hatchable — when to use which

They are complementary. Reach for the right one:

  • ChatGPT Sites — best for a quick, lightweight site: a landing page, a simple dashboard, a portfolio, a read-mostly report. Describe it, publish it, done.
  • Hatchable — best when it needs to be a real app: user accounts and logins, a real Postgres database of records, backend API logic, scheduled jobs, transactional email. Anything with data and users behind it.

Rule of thumb: if it just displays information, Sites is fine. If people log in and do things, you want a real backend — that is Hatchable.

On the free plan, or in the EU, UK, or Switzerland?

ChatGPT Sites is limited to paid plans and is not available in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland. Hatchable has none of those limits: it connects from the ChatGPT app directory on any plan, including free, in every country. If Sites is greyed out for you, this is the route that works.

What a real backend gets you

  • A real Postgres database — store and query records, not just static content.
  • Auth and logins — gated pages and per-user data, wired up for you.
  • Backend API endpoints, cron jobs, and transactional email — the app can actually do things.
  • A live URL at {slug}.hatchable.site, hosted for you, free for personal projects.

Your code, standard stack

Hatchable apps are plain JavaScript, HTML, and standard Postgres — real, portable source with no proprietary framework and no build step. Every deploy is a real git commit you can browse and roll back. Not a black box tied to one subscription.
