# Trickle > An AI-powered web app and website builder that turns natural language prompts into live, hosted apps with a built-in database and credit-based usage. Trickle is a web-first platform that lets creators turn ideas into live websites and apps using natural language and a visual canvas. Users can build landing pages, forms, multi-page apps, and internal tools without coding, and publish them with hosting and custom domains. The product uses a credits system for AI actions and offers free, Pro, and Premium subscription tiers plus purchasable credit add-ons. - **Visual canvas editor** — Use the drag-and-drop canvas to compose pages, layouts, and interactive elements; start by creating a new project and describing what you want in plain English. - **AI-powered creation** — Generate UI, content, and app logic from natural-language prompts; iterate by refining prompts in the built-in chat or editor. - **Built-in database** — Store app data in Trickle’s integrated database; create tables and rows from the project sidebar and bind them to UI components. - **Hosting and custom domains** — Publish projects with included hosting and add custom domains; configure domain settings in the project’s publish controls. - **Credits-based usage and add-ons** — Run AI tasks using daily/monthly credits included with each plan and top up with one-time credit packs when needed. - **Templates & community projects** — Start from templates or community examples to speed development, then customize them in the canvas. - **Private projects & multiple domains** — Upgrade to paid tiers to unlock unlimited/private projects, additional domains, and higher database row limits. Get started by signing up, creating a project, and describing the app you want; use templates to accelerate build time and publish directly from the editor. ## Features - AI-powered app and website builder - Visual canvas editor - Built-in database - Website hosting included - Credits-based usage model - Custom domains and trickle.host domains - Templates and community projects - Private and unlimited projects on paid tiers - Add-on credit packs ## Integrations Stripe, trickle.host ## Platforms WEB ## Pricing Freemium — Free tier available with paid upgrades ## Links - Website: https://trickle.so/ - Documentation: https://help.trickle.so/ - EveryDev.ai: https://www.everydev.ai/tools/trickle
