Chordio

Designers and product managers are often locked out of prototyping on top of their existing product. Security policies, large code base, and complex build setup all stand between the promise of code-first front-end design and reality. The Chordio Workbench helps non-technical team members prototype new experiences on top of their existing products even when they don’t have access to the source code. The full workflow runs in Claude Code on your local machine. It starts with cloning the front-end

Polymet

match 96

Polymet uses AI to help non-designers create production-ready designs and front-end code. They explain what they want or provide an image, and Polymet designs the interface. Our customers use Polymet instead of hiring designers and save thousands of dollars every month. Even their managers can design with English instead of writing design specs. This helps these teams move faster and cover design function on their own instead of contractors at early stages and when they start to scale their can

Floot

Floot lets non-coders & entrepreneurs build real web apps that actually work. We’re taking a new approach by building everything from the ground up for AI. ✨ Try building an app at floot.com Existing AI app builders fall short of enabling non-coders to build real, serious apps. They often: - Break down when building anything more than a prototype or toy app - Have non-coders stuck with errors they don’t understand - Require non-coders to handle multiple services designed for developers (e.g. for
