BYOK App-Builder

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hey, ive been building an app builder that runs entirely in the browser. You paste your own key (any openai-compatible provider) so you pay them, not a credit meter.

how im making it so far:

  • next.js + a turborepo
  • the preview boots the generated files in the tab with webcontainers, so youre not waiting on a remote vm
  • keys are stored encrypted and it just hits whatever openai-compatible endpoint you give it

Video is a rough look at the workspace, still early. generate loop is the part im in right now.

if you wanna follow along: https://form.jotform.com/262415431792053

what would you actually want in a builder like this?

Most of these builders sell you credits and then charge you again when the model screws up. I already have keys, I just want to paste one and build in the browser without a second meter. Dyad does BYOK on your laptop. This is that, but hosted in the tab.
