Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about PromptUI — what it does, how it works, and how it compares.
What is PromptUI?
PromptUI is an AI-powered product builder. You describe what you want in plain English and PromptUI generates a complete working app with multiple files, live preview, launch workflow, and shared context for Growth Agent and Creator Video.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. PromptUI is designed for founders, designers, and non-technical builders. You describe what you want, and the AI writes every line of code. You can refine the app with follow-up prompts without touching the source.
How much does PromptUI cost?
PromptUI has five builder tiers plus a standalone Growth Agent tier: Free (75 one-time credits, no card required), Starter at $15/month (250 credits/mo + 10 daily bonus), Pro at $25/month (750 credits/mo + 25 daily bonus, builder-only), Pro+ at $45/month (1500 credits/mo + 75 daily bonus + PromptUI Growth Agent), Team at $40/user/month (1000 credits/user/mo + 100 daily bonus + PromptUI Growth Agent), and a standalone Growth Agent plan at $25/month for GTM-only workflows with no builder credits. A default build costs 50 credits, with cheaper and premium model options available before you run.
Can I choose which AI model builds my app?
Yes, but you do not have to. PromptUI uses smart AI defaults by task and risk, with advanced model control available when you want to choose deliberately.
How long does it take to generate an app?
Most apps generate in 30–90 seconds. Simple landing pages or dashboards are typically done in under 30 seconds. Complex multi-page apps with data logic may take up to 2 minutes. Generation time also depends on which model you select.
What kinds of apps can I build?
PromptUI supports 30+ app categories: CRM, dashboards, e-commerce, fitness trackers, booking systems, restaurant apps, real estate listings, invoice generators, project management tools, kanban boards, healthcare portals, education platforms, and many more. If it's a standard React app pattern, PromptUI can build it.
Can I edit the generated code?
Yes. You can view all generated files in the file explorer, export them, sync them to your own repo, and edit them in any code editor. The code belongs to you.
What happens if there are errors in the generated app?
PromptUI validates builds before handoff and can automatically retry when it catches issues. Guardian keeps watching runtime failures after launch so the product path stays honest after the first release too.
Can I deploy and own the app?
Yes. PromptUI supports managed launch paths as well as bring-your-own ownership paths. You can ship quickly inside PromptUI, then move the code and deployment setup into your own environment whenever you want.
What is PromptUI Growth Agent?
PromptUI Growth Agent is the GTM workspace inside PromptUI. It generates brand profiles, campaign briefs, content calendars, hashtag strategies, and visual assets (carousel slides, story frames, reel storyboards) for your app. It is included with Pro+, Team, and Enterprise, and is also available as a standalone Growth Agent subscription for GTM-only workflows.
How is PromptUI different from Lovable?
PromptUI is built for the full product path: visible proof, repair workflow, deployment handoff, launch workflow, and post-build media from one system instead of stopping at the first working codebase.
How is PromptUI different from Bolt.new?
PromptUI is designed around complete product delivery: build, validate, ship, and launch from one system instead of a chat-first code loop.
How is PromptUI different from component-first generators?
Component-first generators are great when you want isolated UI blocks. PromptUI is built for complete products: routing, data flows, business logic, multiple pages, launch workflow, and a path to ownership instead of just component previews.
How is PromptUI different from Cursor?
Cursor is an AI-enhanced editor for developers who want help inside a codebase. PromptUI is for founders and teams who want to go from idea to shipped product and launch assets without starting from scratch.
Can I share apps I build?
Yes. Every completed build gets a shareable public URL at /p/[id] with an auto-generated OG image. Those links are for direct sharing with your team, users, or customers. The Explore page is a separate curated showcase made from stable PromptUI showcase sessions, not an automatic listing of every shared user app.
Do credits roll over?
No. Monthly subscription credits reset each billing cycle and do not roll over. Credits purchased as one-time top-ups never expire.
Is the generated code commercial-use allowed?
Yes. All generated code belongs to you. PromptUI imposes no restrictions on commercial use of apps you build.
What is the refine mode?
After generation, you can type follow-up instructions to iterate on your app — "add a dark mode toggle", "replace the chart with a table", "make the header sticky". Each refinement reuses the existing codebase and only changes what you describe.
Does PromptUI support Next.js apps?
Yes. PromptUI auto-detects whether your prompt needs a SPA (React) or a full Next.js app. Next.js builds use WebContainers for live preview and support multi-page routing, API routes, and server components.
How do I get started?
Go to promptui.co, sign in with Google or email, and type your first prompt. Free accounts get 75 one-time credits — enough to try 1–3 builds depending on the model you choose. No credit card required.
