Botflow — From idea to production in one conversation

What is Botflow?

Botflow is a browser-based IDE that lets you build, run, and deploy full-stack web applications without installing anything locally. Describe what you want to build in plain English, and the AI agent writes the code, installs packages, and shows you a live preview — all inside a single browser tab. Under the hood, every project runs in a real Node.js environment powered by WebContainers. There is no virtual machine, no remote server spinning up for you — your code executes directly in your browser with full file system access, pnpm, and a proper terminal.

Key features

AI Agent

Chat with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, and more. The agent reads your files, writes targeted diffs, runs commands, and explains every change.

Monaco Editor

The same editor that powers VS Code — syntax highlighting, autocomplete, multi-file editing, and a built-in terminal.

Live Preview

See your app running instantly. Switch between desktop, tablet, and mobile viewports without leaving the workspace.

One-Click Deploy

Publish to Cloudflare’s global edge network in seconds. Add a custom domain when you’re ready to go production.

Convex Backend

Every project gets a real-time database and serverless functions — no setup required on Pro and Max plans.

GitHub Sync

Connect a repository, commit your changes, push branches, and pull updates without leaving the IDE.

How it works

  1. Describe your app — Type a prompt on the homepage. The AI agent scaffolds the project using a template that matches what you’re building.
  2. Build in your browser — The workspace opens with a file tree, editor, and live preview. Chat with the agent to add features, fix bugs, or explain code.
  3. Ship it — Click Publish to deploy to Cloudflare Pages. Share the link. Done.

Platform types

Botflow supports multiple project types, each with a tailored template:
TypeStackUse when
WebVite + React + ConvexBuilding web apps, dashboards, tools
UniversalExpo + NativeWind + ConvexTargeting iOS, Android, and web from one codebase

Bring your own model

Every plan supports bringing your own API keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Fireworks, Moonshot) or signing in with Claude or Codex OAuth. You pay the provider directly with no markup. Pro and Max plans also include a monthly allotment of platform-managed credits so you can get started without wiring up a key.
