There's never been a better time to build. AI tools, smaller teams, faster product cycles.
Last year, @Supabase surveyed over 2,000 startup founders and builders to uncover what's powering modern startups: tech stacks, GTM, and approach to AI. [1]
Many things have changed since then, and they want to know what building at startups looks like in 2026.
Bildr was built on a real belief: that the ability to create software shouldn't require knowing how to write it.
We made meaningful progress on that, and we've had the privilege of watching people build their software and their businesses with Bildr, this has always been what drove us as a team.
But the ground has shifted. The emergence of agentic AI development platforms has created a fundamental change in the relationship between humans and software. The constraint that Bildr was designed to remove is now being removed in different, better ways, and at a pace that Bildr cannot match.
After a lot of consideration, and after years of building, I've made the decision that it is time to close this chapter and to shut Bildr down.
What that means for you:
Studio access to your projects and data, as well as an ability to export all of your data, will be available until May 25, 2026.
Log in to Bildr Studio and use the export option in the Studio header. Everything will be accessible until that date. Please don't wait. After May 25, support will no longer be available.
If your projects in Bildr have real-world customers on them, you will likely receive a direct email from the team offering to help and to show you how to make use of agentic AI development to make migrating off of Bildr much easier. If you don't receive an email from us and you do have live customers on your project, please reach out at support@bildr.com.
If you're on a monthly plan, we've canceled your subscription and you will see no further charges. If you're on an annual plan, you'll receive a pro-rated refund for your remaining months. That will come automatically, with no action needed from you.
Your subscription being canceled does not affect your projects. Everything you've published will continue running normally for your users until May 25th.
After May 25, 2026, Bildr Studio will go offline and all data will be deleted 30 days later.
A Note of Gratitude
Building a better way for non-coders to create software was a mission worth pursuing, and none of this would have been possible without all of you who shared this journey with us. I am deeply grateful for having had the opportunity. Thank you.
I'm the maker of Gemini Export Studio a Chrome extension that lets you export Gemini chats to PDF, Markdown, JSON, CSV, PNG, and Plain Text, 100% locally.
As much as I use Gemini day-to-day, the chat interface is starting to feel a bit cluttered as my history grows. I've been thinking about the quality-of-life improvements that would make the experience much smoother, but I'm curious to know what the community thinks is the highest priority.
If you could only pick one of these features for Google to implement next, which would it be?
When you re browsing the Product Hunt leaderboard or checking out top launches, which category of products actually makes you stop and click?
Example, yesterday @lazverry told me on my forum thread that they are a creator, so they spend a lot of time looking into Design & Creatives and Productivity.
I ve discovered a lot of useful products through Product Hunt over time.
Funny thing is, some of them I found way back, but only recently started using when the right use case clicked. I kept bookmarking them. And that s when their real value showed up.
Came across the Drift launch today. We are very used to seeing the AI agent tools on PH, but this one caught my attention.
One of their team members had shown me the product a week before the launch. I instantly told her this is going to be a good launch. Largely because I saw Antler on their landing page and second, the niche they are building is very refreshing for Product Hunt audience.
Launched last week, open-source frontier model @MiniMax M2.7 scores 56.2% on SWE Bench Pro, converging towards the best proprietary models like @Claude by Anthropic Opus 4.6.
