What it does

Blink takes a natural-language description of a software need and produces a working app: it designs a SQL database from the prompt, adds email, Google and Apple sign-in, Stripe payments and hosting on a live URL with SSL, and can ship the same app to the web, iOS and Android. Users can connect a domain they own or buy one through Blink, and can edit the generated code.

People use Blink to build internal tools, CRMs, client portals, booking systems, dashboards and AI agents, with the builder handling much of the backend wiring. Its distinguishing features are the built-in database, sign-in and roles, and the ability to add AI models such as chat, image and voice to an app without managing API keys, with usage drawn from Blink credits.

Blink suits non-developers and small teams who want a functioning app quickly, and developers who want a fast starting point. Free access covers a limited daily and monthly credit allowance with public projects; paid plans add production hosting, custom domains and private projects. Credits limit how much you can build, and unused daily credits do not carry over on the free plan. Confirm which AI models and backend features your plan includes before relying on them.

  • Generates a full-stack app with a per-app SQL database designed from a prompt
