What is Buzzy?
Buzzy is a no-code/low-code AI platform that lets you create fully functional web and native mobile (iOS/Android) apps in minutes from a simple prompt or Figma design. Starting from your idea, Buzzy generates a product requirements document, visual themes, and a complete data model with live data integration, all without requiring you to write or manage code.
Key features include AI-driven app creation from prompts, deep bi-directional Figma integration for converting designs to working apps, built-in MongoDB database (no external services needed), offline-first mobile architecture with SQLite for full CRUD capabilities without internet, and REST API support for integrating with third-party systems. The platform supports web, iOS, and Android deployment from a single source, includes custom code widgets for ReactJS extensions, and offersDataTable Rules for calling external REST APIs.
Buzzy is ideal for startups, businesses aiming for rapid innovation, product designers, no-code gurus, ISVs extending enterprise software, field reporting teams, educators, and anyone with an app idea who lacks coding expertise. It dramatically reduces development time from weeks to minutes, lowers costs compared to traditional development (95-200 hours vs 760-1,520 hours for a CRM), and minimizes ongoing maintenance (20-30 hours/year vs 150-200 hours/year).

Frequently asked questions about Buzzy
What is Buzzy?
Buzzy is a groundbreaking no-code platform that uses AI to enable quick and easy development of web and mobile apps. Users can transform ideas into fully functional applications with simple prompts, immediate AI-driven modifications, and the option to refine designs via Figma files. It combines no-code simplicity with custom code flexibility, all hosted on secure, scalable infrastructure. Buzzy dramatically lowers barriers to app development in terms of time, cost, and skill, making it essential for startups and businesses aiming for rapid innovation.
Can I build a native mobile app (iOS/Android)?
Yes, you will need a Buzzy Deployment plan. The Medium and Large deployment plans both support publishing mobile apps to Apple and Google stores. The Small plan is web-only and does not include mobile app publishing. A deployment plan enables you to publish and maintain applications in app stores with dedicated infrastructure including your own database cluster, storage, and compute resources.
How does Buzzy differ from platforms like Lovable, Replit, v0, and Bolt.new?
Buzzy is an all-in-one AI-powered no-code platform that transforms ideas or Figma designs into fully functional web and native mobile applications without writing code. Unlike other platforms, Buzzy includes built-in database (no Supabase needed), fully managed client and server, end-to-end deployment, native mobile support out of the box, and deep bi-directional Figma integration allowing you to iterate directly from your design file. Buzzy also requires minimal ongoing maintenance compared to code-generation platforms.
How does Buzzy handle offline data on mobile?
Buzzy's mobile application uses Offline-First architecture, meaning it's fully functional without internet connectivity. It's a React Native app leveraging SQLite as its local database for full CRUD capabilities while offline. Once connectivity is restored, Buzzy automatically syncs changes with the server. Buzzy also manages data conflicts when multiple users modify the same record before syncing, flagging conflicts for resolution. Offline map tiles are supported as a special configuration for fieldwork.
What is the database underneath Buzzy and do I get access?
Buzzy uses MongoDB under the covers, which has incredible scaling ability and handles complex data. Each Buzzy server gets its own MongoDB cluster. Yes, you can get access to it, but Buzzy recommends getting data from the Buzzy REST API to maintain data integrity. Small and Medium plans use a shared cluster (2Gb), while Large gets your own cluster (10Gb).
How does Buzzy AI pricing work and what are token charges?
Buzzy AI is available through Small, Medium, and Large subscription plans. The free trial includes 1,500 tokens (about $5 value). After trial, you receive 7,000 tokens monthly. Additional tokens can be purchased at $7 for 2,000 tokens. You can also bring your own OpenAI API key to avoid Buzzy token fees. Token charges are not profit-driven - they simply cover expenses of processing AI requests, and Buzzy aims to keep costs low while reducing token usage.
Can I extend Buzzy with my own code and integrate with other solutions?
Yes. Buzzy has a Code Widget letting you use custom HTML and JavaScript in a sandboxed iframe, with data provided via Handlebars and event messaging. Buzzy also allows calling out to third-party endpoints via REST APIs using Datatable Rules - you can call AWS Lambda, DigitalOcean Functions, Zapier, Respell, Salesforce, or any system with a REST API. These systems can perform functions and return data to Buzzy via the Buzzy API. Examples on the Buzzy blog show integrations with OpenAI, Leonardo.ai, Printful, and Stripe.
Do I need a deployment plan if I'm just designing or testing?
No, Buzzy Creator licenses may be all you need. These licenses are for working with Buzzy's AI and optionally in Figma with colleagues, collaborating on designs and testing with real user feedback. You can do user testing with up to 5 named users on the app.buzzy.buzz server. If you want to run your app in production under your own URL, with your own database on your own server, or as a native app in Apple/Google stores, you'll need a deployment (hosting) plan.
Can I self-host or move my Buzzy deployment to my own server?
Yes, this falls into the Enterprise deployment plan. You need to contact Buzzy at [email protected] to discuss self-hosting options. Enterprise also supports additional data-center regions beyond the standard 3 (US, EU, APAC Sydney) and corporate MDM for app publishing.
How does Buzzy scale and what infrastructure does it use?
Buzzy's server and client architecture uses best-of-breed technology. Each deployment is single-tenant with your own compute units, database cluster, and S3-compatible storage. Servers deploy on Kubernetes infrastructure, enabling horizontal and vertical scaling for robustness, reliability, and performance. With Large plans having multiple compute units, you can configure web clusters, mobile clusters, admin user clusters, and worker servers for API access. The database is MongoDB deployed via MongoDB Atlas or Digital Ocean, and mobile technology is React Native with SQLite for offline document storage.
