Gadget - The fastest way to build and scale apps with AI

Hey everyone, Mohammad here from Gadget. 👋

Gadget is the first AI-ASSISTED IDE AND HOSTING PLATFORM that can do it all, with zero handoffs. Our AI will help you code, test, debug, deploy, and scale web apps – all under one roof.

It’s for professional or new and aspiring devs at agencies, app studios, or working out of their basements looking to build real apps that make money.

Whether it's SAAS products, apps for Shopify or plugins for Webflow, Gadget is battle-tested and heavily used by enterprise retail brands and agencies in the ecommerce space, and handles over 2BN API and 500M webhooks each month. So you can trust it with serious use cases.

What makes Gadget better than the competition?

💻 You get an IDE that has everything you need to code, debug, and deploy. You get a code editor, a terminal, a UI for adding/managing tables, frontend previews, API playgrounds, logs, and more…If you prefer your own IDE, you can work locally using our CLI.

⚒️ You will NEVER setup any infra! It’s all magically there, hosted and connected as soon as you start. Not just the basics, but the full monty: GCP hosting, Postgres DB w/ replicas, Redis stores, Elasticsearch, Temporal background jobs…

✅ Auth and permissioning are built-in! Rather than coding it from scratch each time and hoping it’s secure, the assistant will extend Gadget’s built-in login & permissioning system (built by us, experienced human devs). It comes with the backend and UIs for secure email/pw login, Google SSO, and pw recovery flows. The assistant can update it to match your exact requirements.

🧠 The AI has more context, capabilities, and best practices trained into it. It can see everything about your app, its code, and the infra that powers it. This added context means it makes better engineering decisions.

📈 All the infra is serverless. Gadget will scale it, update it, upgrade it and handle any security patches needed. We’ll even scale your database, automatically re-indexing it as your queries change. Monitored by our 24/7 ops team.

Gadget will help you build and run web apps quickly and easily, while guaranteeing that the apps themselves are secure and performant, and always on. Join our community of 3000+ dedicated founders, developers, and builders and launch your next big project with Gadget! 🚀

Everyone gets a bunch of AI credits and hosting for free — and we’re giving the Product Hunt community an exclusive code for an extra 100 credits when you upgrade: PHLAUNCH-AI

Hi everyone!

Sharing our experience using Gadget - so we have already built StoreAlert.io using Gadget and have been using the platform ever since.

From the very start, Gadget really helped skiping the usual setup headaches and focus purely on building (dev productivity unlocked).

What excites us most now is the AI-first direction Gadget is taking. If the core experience was already this good, adding an intelligent assistant to help code, configure, debug, and deploy is going to supercharge dev teams.

It’s becoming complete development environment with brains.

Huge kudos to Mo & the team for pushing the boundaries 👏!

I've had a fantastic experience using Gadget! I've built several public and private apps on the platform, and recently even sold one, I've been a long time user and I can recommend their stability and the magical SDK generation that Gadget offers would make any dev happy.

Their team has been exceptionally helpful every step of the way, and it's clear how far the product has come. It's not just feature-rich, it's also incredibly reliable battle-tested in production and ready to scale. Highly recommend it to anyone building serious apps with AI at the core. If you want to ship fast, Gadget is the platform to do it.

Extremely excited to try this out, well done Harry, Mo and Team Gadget 🚀

This is the kind of platform I wish existed when I first started building SaaS tools. Having infra, auth, and AI-powered debugging in one place is a serious unlock.

I'm a bit biased (I'm part of the team), but it's hard not to see platforms like Gadget as the future of app development.

I've seen - and experienced - firsthand just how powerful Gadget is for agencies, developers and non-developers alike having directly seen some incredible success stories over the last few months.

The AI-assisted IDE is a real game-changer: it helps new creators build their first apps, and empowers experienced devs to do more, faster.

Check it out—we’d love your feedback!

Gadget 3 feels like an AI-powered full-stack factory—backend, frontend, database, and hosting spin up in minutes, so agencies and solo builders can jump straight to product logic: this sounds amazing!

A few suggestions from my first pass:

• A staging-to-production promotion flow (with branch previews) would ease agency hand-offs.

• A cost dashboard that estimates runtime + storage as you add features could calm CFO nerves.

• A public template gallery—Shopify quiz, SaaS CRM, internal dashboard—would slash time-to-value for newcomers.

Anyway, great tool—Gadget is shaping up to be a serious acceleration layer for modern web apps, I hope! 🚀

Whoa super excited to try this out, looks fantastic!

Love this. It looks pretty similar to Lovable — is that right?

These days, I think the performance or speed of AI doesn't really matter.

What really matter is how the IDE let developer click less, open less windows, and get less stress.

Congratulations, @hashemito!

Launched an app a couple years ago and this would've saved me so many dev hours and $$. Looks awesome, congrats!

Before Shopify and Gadget, our development was fragmented across various platforms – Lambda functions, frontend solutions, and server-side applications – making management incredibly challenging.

Gadget simplifies everything by eliminating deployment orchestration and enabling our frontend developers to handle backend tasks. This allows our team to own solutions top-to-bottom in a familiar JavaScript environment.

We can now solve problems mid-development cycle without waiting for backend developers to have space in their sprint schedule. The vertical integration eliminates the need to involve DevOps for provisioning and deployment tasks.

We built a custom Ruby on Rails middleware app, but if Gadget had its current capabilities six months earlier, we would have approached it completely differently.

Looking back, I would build everything in Gadget – it breaks the stereotype of low-code tools by making it genuinely easy to build full-stack applications.

I’m curious how this would integrate with my existing workflow. Does it support all types of projects, or is it more tailored to specific tech stacks?
