Solid earns strong praise for delivering real, production-ready apps rather than throwaway prototypes. Reviewers highlight fast setup, an intuitive flow, and dependable full‑stack outputs with React/Node that feel “ownable” and extendable. Many compare it favorably to Lovable, V0, and Replit, citing superior results and a smoother path to deployment. Concerns center on credits running out during error fixes and wanting clearer guidance on plans, export readability, and long‑term maintainability. Overall, users report shipping working apps quickly, with several moving projects over after hitting limits elsewhere.

Solid
Hey PH community!
After two years of deep R&D, we're thrilled to launch Solid.
💥 The Problem
Most AI builders give you a toy: a frontend shell, a prebuilt limited backend you cant migrate from (like base44), maybe a basic Supabase backend (like lovable). Cool for demos… but when you want to build something serious for the long run, you hit a wall.
🛠 Our Solution
We don’t use pre-built, limited backends (like Base44) or toy stacks (like Lovable). Solid builds software the way a real engineer would. The only limit is what can be built with code.
Production-ready: React, Node.js, Postgres, and clean, extendable code you can host anywhere.
Complete ownership & control: you own 100% of your app, deploy it anywhere.
Free & open stack: no lock-in. Connect to any service, use any AI tool, and scale on your terms.
🎯 Who’s It For?
Builders who want to move fast and build real tools
Startup teams launching products, MVPs, or internal tools
Mid-Market & Enterprise teams building tools that last
⚙️ Key Features
Full-stack: React + Node.js + Postgres
No Supabase or vendor lock-in
One-shot prompts: build apps in seconds
Real code you can scale, extend, and ship

@zerotox hi Edu and Trevor. Sounds promissing. is there a way to deeply customize generated code and integrat my own frameworks? and does your product support app migration in case a team wants to move to a different infrastructure or hosting provider later on?
Solid
@zerotox @olga_scry Yes, you can export the entire project. It includes the frontend, backend, and database, all fully dockerized for seamless deployment and scalability.
@zerotox @eddelan thank you so much!
Scade.pro
@zerotox congrats on the launch. does Solid support api integrations?
Solid
@zerotox @nastassia_k Yes, it can integrate with any service. Unlike other tools that rely on a limited prebuilt backend, @Solid generates a real Node.js backend with PostgreSQL a fully extensible codebase that you can customize and integrate without restrictions. Its real software.

@zerotox Congrats on the launch! Solid’s focus on real, production-ready stacks is compelling. But with AI app builders everywhere, the key question is: how do you prove to teams that Solid’s code isn’t just fast to spin up, but truly secure and maintainable long-term?
Solid
@zerotox @tonyabracadabra Thanks! You can actually download the code, open it up, and see for yourself. It’s clean, modular, and easy to work with — not some spaghetti code.
It’s a real high-quality project: Node, React, Postgres. Production-ready and fully yours.
@zerotox Excited to hunt Solid today! :)
How I met the founders?
I’ve had the chance to know the makers for a while, since June 2024. They’re some of the sharpest, most thoughtful builders I’ve met. They’ve spent the last two years deep in R&D, and the result is something pretty special.
What is Solid?
It’s an AI-powered builder that doesn’t stop at prototypes or toy backends. Instead, it gives you a real, production-ready stack (React, Node.js, and Postgres) with clean, extendable code that you fully own. You can deploy it anywhere and scale it like real engineering teams do.
Why I endorse it?
So many AI app builders make it easy to get started but impossible to grow.
Solid flips that: it’s fast at the start and sustainable in the long run. Whether you’re hacking on side projects, shipping startup MVPs or building serious internal tools, Solid gives you the foundation to actually scale.
Congrats Ed and Trevor for shipping it finally!! Can’t wait to see what Solid stuff PH community members build with Solid! ;)
@zerotox Congrats on the launch!
@anastasiiazhur Thanks for stopping by, Anastasiia :)

Congrats team @eddelan @tkeith
Do you envision Solid being used more by non-technical founders or by engineering teams who want a head start?
Solid
@tkeith @kate_ramakaieva Hi Kate! Great question. Right now we have both top developers and non-technical users building with @Solid. That’s because we’re the only vibecoding tool that generates production-grade code everyone can actually use. In fact, we built Solid using Solid. Most other tools are fine for quick prototypes — but that’s where they stop.

Looking solid and congrats for the launch!! It is free right now?
@saaswarrior Thank you Ankit. Yes, you can get started for free. :)
@zerotox I tried but we can not export or publish in free version

This indeed is a serious problem... a lot of AI builders only build frontend and don't function for complex use cases. Solid seems solid for solving this problem :D
@nuseir_yassin1 Thanks Nuseir for your support. :)
This looks solid 👏 Love that it skips the toy stacks and goes straight to production-ready code. Super curious to see how startup teams use this for real apps, not just demos.
@christyfea We're excited as well to see what PH community builds with it :)
