Teams get stuck with one-size-fits-all SaaS that doesn’t fit anyone perfectly. CREAO lets anyone build custom AI apps with natural language, each one with a built-in copilot. Build the right tools for any job.
Suddenly, developers could build native iOS apps with simple, declarative code instead of wrestling with complex UIKit frameworks. What used to take weeks now took hours.
CREAO does something similar, but for entire teams.
Instead of forcing everyone into generic SaaS tools, CREAO lets anyone describe their workflow in plain English and get a custom AI app with its own dedicated copilot.
Just like SwiftUI democratized iOS development, CREAO democratizes software creation for the individuals on business teams.
The breakthrough: Each conversationally-generated app comes bundled with a purpose-built copilot that understands the specific context and data of that workflow. It's not a generic assistant bolted onto existing software—it's architected from the ground up for that exact use case.
Real impact: Teams stop bending their processes to fit generic, rigid tools. Instead, they create precision instruments that adapt to how they actually work.
The result feels like giving every team member their own personal developer who speaks their language and understands their problems.
Worth checking out if: Your team is tired of "almost right" software that forces everyone to work the same way.
I enjoyed getting to know and helping the team clarify their launch messaging — and I hope you take a serious look at the impressive platform they've built!
@chrismessina Thanks for your support and for helping us share CREAO with the world!
The Product Hunt community is sharp, and your summary of CREAO perfectly captures our vision. Thank you for this thoughtful and incredibly accurate breakdown! We believe that generic tools often create more friction than they solve, and the real power of technology lies in its ability to adapt to human workflows, not the other way way around.
@chrismessina Thanks for your support! We're excited to hear from this knowledgeable community. This is a key step in our journey to bring technology to the frontline and help teams get their work done.
Tired of forcing your team to use generic SaaS that fits nobody’s needs perfectly?
We built CREAO after watching high agency teams get stuck trying to hack solutions using basic Swiss Army knives when they needed bespoke multi-tools that adapt to their context and goals.
For example, your HR person needs a complex multi-tool for compliance workflows. Your DevOps engineer needs specialized automations. Yet both are forced to use the same generic interfaces and features that require workarounds or tedious stopgaps.
CREAO flips this: Instead of one-size-fits-all, we enable individuals to create infinitely personalized software to fit their bespoke needs.
Here’s how it works:
Describe your exact problem in plain English
Get a custom AI app built specifically for that workflow
Each app comes with its own custom copilot (not a generic assistant)
CREAO apps can be easily connected to other tools
CREAO apps can be shared and used across your team
What makes this different: You’re not getting another vibe coding AI app builder. You’re getting the AI app + purpose-built copilot bundle, two things that work together as one unit to solve specific problems.
Real examples from our users:
Medical appointment dashboard that auto-handles confirmations
Travel agency CRM with Amadeus integration and Slack updates
Field evaluation tool that turns photos into quote-ready reports
The result? Teams work at the problem level, not the platform level. Everyone gets tools as bespoke as their actual needs.
💬 Question: What’s your team’s “Swiss Army knife problem” — where you’re stuck with generic tools that almost (but don’t quite) solve your specific workflow?
👉 Ready to give your team precision tools instead of generic ones?
@north_chen 🎉 Congratulations on the launch of CREAO! It's great to see a solution that recognizes the importance of personalized tools in today's varied work environments.
I would love to know how long it took your team to develop CREAO.👀
@amymabrey Thank you! Frankly it took our team 3 months to develop CREAO, and I know we are already leading ahead of many other vibe-coding products that's been building for almost a year
@north_chen@amymabrey Great question! CREAO was built in relatively short amount of time.
But we spent the majority of our time obsessing over one thing: the infrastructure. That infra is the "brain" for our coding agent. Getting it right is what allows CREAO to turn a simple prompt into a full-stack AI-native app so reliably.
@north_chen Congrats on the launch, North! The “AI app builder” space is already crowded, so the sharper question is: how will CREAO prove it isn’t just more bespoke tools adding to the sprawl, but something teams can actually maintain and rely on long-term?
@tonyabracadabra Thank you Tony! The 'AI app builder' space is crowded with many competitors that can't deliver any functional apps. But it's pretty much an empty space for a product that's capable of delivering a functional full-stack app in one prompt. Give it a try and compare us to other competitors, and soon you will reach a conclusion!
We think about it this way: you're not just adding another tool to the pile. You're actually clearing the pile out by building one system you own that does the job of five different SaaS apps.
The magic is that because you can constantly update it, it doesn't get old and crusty. It evolves as your team does. It’s all about ditching the temporary fixes for something you can truly rely on long-term.
@tonyabracadabra We've designed CREAO to directly counter the "sprawl" problem, not add to it. Our value isn't just in rapid creation, but in long-term maintenance and reliability. Here's how we're building (or planning) a platform that teams can truly rely on:
1. The Centralized Workplace
Unlike a collection of bespoke tools living on separate websites, every app built with CREAO lives in a single, unified workplace. This means teams have one place to manage all their custom tools, access data, and oversee user permissions. It’s a single source of truth, not a disparate collection of solutions.
2. A Solid, Maintainable Foundation
The apps aren't just one-off prototypes. They're built on a structured, modular architecture that allows them to be edited and updated over time. As your team's needs evolve, the application can evolve with it. The copilot becomes a maintenance partner, helping you update forms, add new reports, or change logic with a simple prompt.
3. Data Integrity & Security
We handle the database, data structuring, and permissioning automatically. This prevents the data silos and security risks that often come with ad-hoc solutions like duct-taping spreadsheets together. Every action is logged in an audit trail, so you can always see who did what, and when.
@timte Thanks so much, Tim! That means a lot coming from you and the team at Locki. We're huge fans of what you're building and really appreciate you taking the time to check it out. Wishing you continued success!
@timte Thank you! We appreciate you taking the time to explore CREAO. We're focused on building a platform that helps teams move beyond the limitations of generic software. The goal is to make it simple for anyone to create a purpose-built tool with a dedicated AI copilot that understands their specific workflow. Your feedback is invaluable as we continue to grow!
@cruise_chen It's designed to be simple. Every app you build is connected, so you don't have to worry about data being siloed in different tools. And you can share any app with your team, so everyone can jump in and use it together.
@cruise_chen Great question! We have the Share for Collaboration feature for every project you build in CREAO. Each project has a unique, publicly accessible URL you can share with your team, granting them access to the app and its data.
@cruise_chen That's an excellent question, and it gets to the heart of what makes CREAO different. Thank you for asking.
Here's how it works:
Contextual Copilot: The individual copilot understands the entire shared context. It can answer questions, summarize data, or automate tasks based on the complete, team-wide data set, while also understanding a user's specific role and permissions. Share and Discover Apps: Apps built by one person can be shared with the entire team or specific departments, ensuring everyone benefits from the custom workflows. Centralized Management (coming next release): Administrators can manage users, roles, and permissions across the organization, ensuring data security and governance.
@cruise_chen Thanks for the love! We built Creao for teams to collaborate in shared, multiplayer spaces where each copilot learns from the group's collective intelligence to supercharge creativity.
@swastik_maiti Thanks for your feedback swastik! Yes you can deliver a custom system from a simple prompt in 7-10 minutes. Enjoy you ride in CREAO and you can reach me out for any product assistance!
@swastik_maiti Thank you! That's exactly the goal we had in mind. We're focused on giving everyone the power to create a tool that feels truly their own, moving beyond the one-size-fits-all approach. We can't wait to see what you build with it!
@swastik_maiti Thank you Swastik! We're so glad that resonates with you. That's exactly our goal: to let you build the perfect system you've always dreamed of and bring ultimate order to your life, without compromise.
@swastik_maiti Thank you so much for the kind words! We're thrilled to hear that.
Empowering everyone to conveniently build their own personalized system is the exact reason we started this journey. We genuinely can't wait to see what you create with it.
If you don't mind sharing, we'd love to know what you're planning to build first! Cheers! 🚀
@charlenechen_123 Yes, exactly! We believe "simple" should also mean "powerful." It means you can stop being a human API between different apps and build the custom tool your team has always needed, and actually get it done in hours, not weeks
@charlenechen_123 Thank you! That's precisely the vision we're chasing: making powerful, custom software accessible to everyone on a team, regardless of their technical background. We're excited for what people will build with it!
Wow, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen such an impressive product on PH like CREAO. Congratulations on the launch! I’m a vibe coding enthusiast, and the concept of Creao really struck me as refreshing. Suddenly, I got an idea: to create a small web-based product that can automatically turn my abstract design drafts into interactive product prototypes, replacing the need for me to write requirement documents!
@jackyliu Love it! If you're like me, you'll soon feel like you opened Pandora's box (in a good way). All the things at work and in life that could be made so much better!
@jackyliu Wow, thank you so much! That's one of the highest compliments we could receive on a launch day. We're excited for you to give it a try and can't wait to see what you build with it!
@jackyliu Wow, thank you for the amazing feedback!
That idea is brilliant and exactly why we built CREAO—to turn a flash of inspiration into a real tool, instantly. We can't wait to see you bring that prototype builder to life!
Hey Product Hunt! I m Kai, Co-founder of Creao AI the team building CREAO, a new AI platform that makes it ridiculously easy for anyone to build their own AI-native apps, exactly the way they want them.
We re gearing up for our big launch on August 19th , but here s a sneak peek.
Reviews of CREAO highlight strong enthusiasm for building custom AI apps in natural language and appreciation for the built-in copilot. Users say it better matches unique team workflows than rigid SaaS, speeds prototyping, and reduces reliance on engineers. Many praise its simplicity and clean UX, though several ask whether flexibility will overwhelm non-technical users and note room to improve multi-turn understanding and interactions. Overall sentiment is positive: if CREAO maintains usability while deepening customization, it could deliver meaningful productivity gains across varied team structures.

The challenge with most SaaS tools is that they tend to force teams into rigid workflows, right? CREAO's approach of letting users build custom AI apps using natural language is exactly what teams need to stay agile. The built-in copilot is a nice touch too, could really help streamline complex processes without needing extra resources. I'm curious about how flexible the platform is, does it allow for deep customization, or is it more about giving teams a good starting point to tweak things? Would love to dive in and see how it adapts to different team structures.
What's great

Really like the idea here 👏 Most teams end up hacking around SaaS tools that never quite fit their workflow. The “infinitely personalized” angle feels powerful — letting each member shape their own AI apps (with a copilot baked in) could be a real productivity unlock.
Curious: how steep is the learning curve for non-technical folks? Would love to hear some early use cases from your beta users.
What's great

Thank you Nyun, the learning curve is very gentle—even non-technical users can get started quickly. There’s no need to worry about database setup or deployment; everything is handled behind the scenes, so you can focus entirely on building and customizing your AI apps. We designed CREAO to be as accessible as possible!
CREAO is a game-changer for teams tired of generic SaaS tools. Instead of forcing everyone into a one-size-fits-all system, it lets you build custom AI apps using natural language—no coding headaches. The built-in copilot is a huge plus, making every app more powerful and user-friendly. It’s flexible, intuitive, and actually fits the way teams work.
