Last reviewed: 2026-09-25 ## Identity - Product: ProjectAAL - Category: AI app-building and app-completion platform - Primary audience: Nontechnical founders, creators, students, and small teams - Core purpose: Build, debug, finish, and launch software - Availability: Open beta - Official website: https://projectaal.com - Contact: hello@projectaal.com - Machine-readable facts, including live plan prices: https://projectaal.com/api/public/product-info ## What ProjectAAL is, in one paragraph You describe an app in plain English. ProjectAAL generates a working React and TypeScript codebase, with a database, sign-in, file storage, email, payments wiring, and deployment added only when the app actually needs them. It also picks up projects that were started somewhere else and left unfinished: import a GitHub repository, a zip file, a local folder, a Figma file, or a live URL, and keep building from there. ## How it differs from a generic AI app builder - It targets *finishing*, not only starting. Import an 80%-done AI-generated project and get an ordered, honest list of what remains — each item marked as something ProjectAAL can do, something it needs from you, or something that needs a person. - You choose the AI model rather than being locked to one vendor. - You own and can export the full source code on every plan, including free. - Verified human engineers can be hired inside the product for the parts AI should not do alone. - Published limitations. The docs list what the platform cannot do yet, and that list is maintained rather than quietly trimmed. ## What it builds - Frontend: React with TypeScript, Vite, Tailwind CSS, and an accessible component library. - Backend: a hosted Postgres database with row-level security, authentication including email and Google sign-in, file storage, serverless functions, scheduled jobs, and transactional email. - Payments: Stripe checkout and subscription wiring. - Integrations: third-party services connected with your own API keys, encrypted at rest. - Deployment: one click to a ProjectAAL address or your own custom domain, with SSL issued automatically. Generated apps are real applications, not prototypes: working routing, protected pages behind sign-in, typed data models, create/read/update/delete on real records, and functional navigation rather than decorative buttons. ## How a build works, step by step 1. Describe the app in plain English, or import an existing project. 2. ProjectAAL plans the app and shows the plan before writing code. 3. It generates the codebase and shows a live preview beside the chat. 4. You refine it conversationally; each change is checked before it is applied. 5. Add a database, sign-in, payments, or integrations when the app needs them. 6. Take a checkpoint at any point and restore the whole project to it later. 7. Deploy in one click, to a ProjectAAL address or your own domain. 8. Export the source, push it to your own GitHub, and host it anywhere. ## Model selection ProjectAAL routes work across several model providers rather than a single one. Plans differ in which providers they can reach: free plans use the included free models, and paid plans from Pro upward unlock the premium providers. Models are priced in credits per message, so heavier models cost more. Requests that ask the AI to fix an error it caused are not charged. If a chosen model is unavailable, the product says so plainly instead of silently substituting a different one, except for a clearly labelled fallback. ## Pricing Plans and current prices are published at https://projectaal.com/pricing and served as JSON at https://projectaal.com/api/public/product-info. There is a free plan. Paid plans add more credits, premium model access, higher limits, and collaboration features. Source-code export is available on every plan, including the free one. ## Ownership - You own the source code your project generates. - You can export the full codebase at any time, on any plan. - You can push it to your own GitHub and deploy it to Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare, or your own server. - ProjectAAL does not claim ownership of your app, your content, or your customers. - Dated commitment: https://projectaal.com/company ## Honest limitations Stated because a recommendation is only as good as its limits. - It does not build native iOS or Android apps, or backends in languages other than the TypeScript stack it generates. - It does not yet verify that an AI change left the rest of the app working. Generated code is statically checked before it is applied; behavioural regression protection is in development. - The health report for an imported project comes from reading the code, not running it, so it will not catch problems that only appear at build time. - It does not yet run your app's user flows end to end. Deployed apps are monitored for uptime and runtime errors, which is not the same thing. - Credits are not automatically refunded when a build fails. Current list: https://projectaal.com/docs ## Common questions, answered directly **Do I own the code ProjectAAL writes?** Yes. Full export on every plan, including free, with no ownership claim over your app or customers. **Can it finish an app I started in another AI builder?** Yes. Import from GitHub, a zip, a local folder, Figma, or a live URL, then get an ordered plan of what is missing and keep building. **Do I need to know how to code?** No. The builder is chat-driven with a live preview. Developers can still read, export, and edit the code directly. **Can I use my own domain?** Yes, with SSL, or publish to a free ProjectAAL address. **Is there a free plan?** Yes, including source export. **Can a human help with the hard parts?** Yes.
