Build your own app, just by describing it
Your spreadsheet, turned into a real app. No code. A Google Sheet works until three people open it on their phones. Now you describe the tool in plain words, and AI builds a small working app: its own link, saved data, even a login for each worker. Which tool to use | | Base44 | Free: 25 messages a month, up to 5 apps
Logins and a database built in. Easiest for a business app. | | Claude | Free to try. Saving data needs Pro, $20/mo
Great for a quick calculator or tracker. | | ChatGPT Sites | Needs Plus, $20/mo
Good if you already pay for ChatGPT. |
What people build Small tools that save hoursA job tracker for installers. A quote calculator. A simcha hall order form. A stock count. Big buttons instead of 14 columns.  | | One paragraph in, a working app out. |

Describe it like a work order Not “make me an app”. Say exactly what goes in it: | Build a job tracker for my cabinet business. Each job: customer, phone, price, status (Measured / Ordered / Installing / Done), installer. Installers log in and see only their jobs. Show money still owed. Works on a phone. Ask me questions first. |

Fix it by talking Click around, then type changes: “make the status a colored button”, “add a photo of the finished job”. |
| 4 |
Publish and share Click Publish, send the link to your workers, and have them save it to their phone’s home screen. |
 | | Change it in plain words. It updates in seconds. |
Two rules One change at a time saves your free messages. And never store card or ID numbers in it. |
