Runs a six-person studio building client web apps. Cares about handover more than novelty.

Ended a two-year argument in my studio
Our designer changes something, it lands as a pull request, our developer reviews it like any other change. That is the whole value and it is worth the money. It does not build backends and I did not want it to. The agent is unremarkable, but I am not buying it for the agent.
WeWeb9 August 2026
The only one my clients pass an audit with
Server-rendered pages, real Lighthouse scores, connects to whatever backend the client already has, and we can export Vue if the relationship ends. That last part has won us two contracts. The learning curve is real and our juniors take a month, but the output is work I am willing to sign.

Good product, awkward position in the market
Built two client portals on it and both clients were happy. My problem is commercial rather than technical: there is no free tier to prototype in, and Softr does eighty per cent of the job for less, so justifying it to a client requires a conversation I usually lose. Fine tool, hard sell.

Half a stack, and the good half
We pair it with WeWeb for client work and the combination delivers better than any single all-in-one tool we have tried. Two subscriptions is the cost of that, and clients ask why. Worth explaining. The absence of any interface builder is a feature once you accept what you are buying.
