AI app builders that give you a full-stack app, not just a frontend

A lot of AI builders produce a good-looking frontend and stop there. This list is for the ones that generate the parts you actually need before anyone can use the thing: a real database, authentication, and a way to publish it. The criterion is narrow on purpose — it is about what comes out of the first prompt, not about design or speed.

What is Dyad?

Dyad.sh is a free, local, and open-source AI app builder designed to empower users to create powerful custom applications without coding and without vendor lock-in. It runs entirely on your own computer, ensuring full control over your source code and data privacy. Dyad supports integration with popular AI models like Google Gemini, OpenAI's GPT-4.1, and Anthropic's Claude, allowing you to use your own API keys and choose any AI model you prefer.

The platform features seamless local development with instant, responsive feedback, letting you edit, preview, and undo changes in real time. It also integrates with Supabase for backend services such as authentication, databases, and server functions, enabling you to build full-stack applications, not just user interfaces. Dyad is highly flexible, supporting local AI model execution for maximum privacy and speed.

Created by Will Chen, Dyad aims to provide a truly open and unrestricted environment for app builders, avoiding artificial limits and subscription constraints. It requires no sign-up, has been downloaded over 95,000 times, and maintains a high user rating. The project is actively maintained and open for contributions on GitHub.
