Chat with AI to build for the web, and ship faster. Go from prompt to prototypes in seconds. Iterate on a real app in real-time. Own your code, with no lock-in. Integrate with workflows developers love. One-click deploy to production.
Hello Product Hunt!
Anton here, creator of the original open source gpt-engineer (different from this).
Last year, just a month into development of we were surprise hunted and made #1 Product of the day & week. We added an ‘alpha’ label to GPT Engineer and were completely energized by the shared interest in what we’re building - an AI Engineer which enables anyone to build apps and ship 10x faster.
Over the past months tens of thousands of users signed up, and we personally onboarded hundreds - relentlessly iterating.
We’ve made leaps in stability & reliability. Generating a new front-end takes on average 15 seconds, to go from prompt to prototype. Edits take seconds — quick enough to stay in flow while iterating towards a viable product. Errors can be fixed by AI. Deploying takes a single click.
Now - founders, CTOs, product engineers, and maintainers of internal tools are able to ship faster than ever. GPT Engineer excels at building front-end, syncs 2-way with GitHub (so you can collaborate at source, own your code) and also can automatically integrate with Supabase to build full-stack web apps.
With that, we’re graduating from ‘alpha’ to ‘beta’. We have a waitlist, but we’d love to fast track Product Hunters who match the descriptions above. We’d love to have you onboard to help shape the future of development, and pave the way to an AI engineer which enables anyone to create software.
Sign up for the waitlist at gptengineer.app, or comment with a specific use-case to get a chance to get fast tracked!

@antonosika I have loved building with gpt-engineer! Magical experience

@antonosika Would love to try it out! As a non-dev founder I find this really interesting. Currently using Cursor + Claude to automate lots of daily tasks.

@antonosika@patrik_karlsson3 Hey @patrik_karlsson3, thanks for your comment. The workflow you described is becoming increasingly popular. What would you like to build with GPT Engineer, and we can prioritize your access?
Congrats on the launch! How would you say this compares to Cheat Layer's open source Live Mode?
https://youtu.be/6bcUwBNJAJU
A few interesting features:
Instant live Previews before chatGPT launched last year
Unlimited websites
Ideogram integration for state-of-the-art professional image generation
Automates setting up stripe subscriptions, Supabase auth logins, and deploying to Vercel from end to end
If you can improve it, please feel free to submit a PR: https://github.com/rohanarun/Ope...

@rohan_arun1 Thanks for sharing. I have to be honest - I'm not familiar with this product enough to make a meaningful comparison. But I will def take a look.
Thanks for your support!
@vibor_cipan I actually DMed Anton in march to offer to show him our progress, which actually started before chatGPT launched, but he never responded. Could you ping him to please respond? https://ibb.co/87yCY5x

@rohan_arun1 Of course. This week might be a little tricky since we are launching, but I'll try to get him!
@vibor_cipan thanks no problem I understand. I'm just hoping for a response within 5 months because he still hasn't responded since march haha. I appreciate it very much and good luck on the launch!

@rohan_arun1 We've been super busy, but I totally get your point.

This is pretty sweet, and feels a lot more real with the github integration. I was able to spin up a front end with one sentence and 30seconds wait. I'm curious when you will support building BE as a no-code or low-code engineer? Would be amazing.
Congrats on the launch @antonosika and team!

@antonosika@tonyhanded Thanks for your support and comment, Tony! We already have a support for Supabase integration (auth/DB), but we are looking into making it even more comprehensive. Do you have some specific scenarios in mind that you'd like us to support?
Report
@antonosika@vibor_cipan - yeah for me the scenario is grabbing info on webpage i'm on, look up contact info like linkedin profile url and send out connection requests.
Report
Congrats on the launch. Definitely a game changer for small to mid-size projects. What is the largest project that you have seen built and deployed (even beta) with gptengineer.app? Are there any limitations for large-ish projects (e.g with several tens of thousands of lines)?
Report
Maker
@gorkemcetin Thanks for your support and kind words. I really don't know by heart - the biggest one I'm aware of has more than 400 edits and it's still performing very well, but I'm unsure about the number of code lines.
I'd say that several tens of thousands of lines would be pushing it - can't confidently say I saw projects of that size built exclusively with GPT Engineer
Report
@vibor_cipan Fair enough - thanks for your detailed answer! Hope we'll be able to see them soon really.
From the website, this looks very nice. How is this different from Cursor though? I remember, I had tried using it a couple of months ago, but didn't really take to it. Similarly, curious about GPT engineer before I try it out.
@mehul_kaushik with Cursor you need to have a local development environment. With GPT Engineer the full development environment is hosted by us which means that while you can clone the repo and iterate on it locally, you don't have to. You can build and deploy fully working apps only using Chat.

This product allows so much creativity — I made a little personal website in like an hour (this was mostly 20x creative iterations to try different ideas!)
https://preview--retro-hacker-po...
It's really impressive! The speed to bring new ideas out to life is amazing. And I love the concept of communicating with "it" and see it react to continuous feedback throughout the process.
Report
Maker
@hlandgren It's cool that you mention this communication aspect. I sometimes even say that we are now in the ear of human-computer co-creation, not just interaction, and I think GPT Engineer does that pretty well.
Thanks for your kind words and support!
