# BuildShip

> BuildShip is a low-code visual workflow builder that lets you create scalable AI workflows and backends using plain English and a node-based interface.

BuildShip is a visual, low-code platform for building AI-powered workflows and backend automations without deep engineering expertise. It lets makers, builders, and teams go from plain English descriptions to fully deployed, scalable workflows in minutes using an intuitive node-based editor. The platform supports keyless AI nodes, built-in database tables, version control, and a team library for reusable custom nodes.
