Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about Buildpad.ai.

What is Buildpad.ai?

Buildpad.ai is an AI-ready platform for building full-stack web applications. It provides a collaborative workspace with an integrated AI assistant, cloud-based development environment, and project management tools — all accessible from your browser.

Do I need to install any software?

No. Buildpad.ai runs entirely in your web browser. The code editor, terminal, and AI assistant are all cloud-based, so you can start building immediately without any local setup.

Is my code stored securely?

Yes. Your code is stored in a secure cloud environment associated with your project. Access is restricted to authenticated team members within your organization.

Can I collaborate with my team?

Absolutely. Create an organization, invite team members, and assign roles. Everyone in your organization can work on shared projects and apps.

What can the AI assistant do?

The AI assistant can generate code, edit existing files, create new files and folders, run terminal commands, manage databases, and explain code concepts. It automatically understands your project context and takes actions in your cloud environment.

How does the AI know about my project?

The AI is context-aware — it automatically knows which organization, project, and apps you’re working on. When you download a starter for your AI code editor, it also connects your assistant directly to your cloud backend so it can read your database schemas, collections, and environment settings.

What is DaaS (Data-as-a-Service)?

DaaS is your project’s cloud development environment — a remote machine that runs your code and services. You can check its status from the DaaS page in your project: a green indicator means it’s ready to use, and you can start or stop it from there.

Can I use starter templates?

Yes. When creating a new project, you can choose from available starter templates to bootstrap your application with a predefined structure and boilerplate code.

Is there a free tier?

Please contact the Buildpad.ai team for current pricing and plan information.

How do I get help if I’m stuck?

You can ask the AI assistant for help directly in your project. For platform-related issues, check the Troubleshooting page in this documentation.
