Base44

What it does

Base44 builds a small web app from a description — screens, data model, auth and hosting in one place. It is aimed at the internal tools that never get engineering time: sample trackers, quotation logs, a shared inspection checklist.

The first version is quick; the second version is where you find out whether the data model matches how your team actually works. Export and integration options matter more than the demo.

Standout features

• Prompt-to-app with a built-in database
• Authentication and hosting included
• Editable screens after generation
• Shareable internal URL

Main job: turn a plain-language description into a hosted app with data, login and screens.

Best for

Use it for a small internal tool — a sample tracker, an RFQ log, a booth lead sheet — that would otherwise wait months for a developer.

Getting started

Describe the fields and the one workflow you need, generate the first version, then click through a real record with a colleague. Adjust the data fields before adding more screens.

Watch out for

Watch out: do not put customer pricing or personal data into a prototype before checking where it is stored and who can see the URL. Confirm you can export the data later.
