Built with Kridona — tap one to open it live

01

Describe it

In your own words — what it does, who uses it, how it should look.

02

See the plan

Every screen laid out before a single credit is spent. Change anything.

03

It runs

Its own link, its own database, real logins — minutes later, not weeks.

This is how a build on Kridona actually goes, from the first sentence to an app your staff use on Monday. None of it needs code.

1. Describe the work, not the software

More ↓

Write who uses the app and what they do in it, in your own trade words: "a learner books a free slot", "the mechanic moves a car to Ready". Name the screens if you know them. Say what must be public and what is behind a login. A paragraph is plenty.

2. Read the plan before you pay

More ↓

Before anything is built you see the plan: every screen, what it is for, and which sentence of yours it came from, with the price in credits on the button. Change it by saying what to add or drop. Nothing is spent until you approve.

3. Watch it build

More ↓

The build plans the data, designs a look for your kind of business, writes each screen, and then opens every page in a real browser to test it — forms are saved, sign-up is tried with a real account. It usually takes ten to twenty minutes.

4. Change it in plain words

More ↓

Open the app, and ask for what you want different in the chat next to it. Each change is made, published, and checked on the live page. Small changes cost 1 credit.

5. Put it to work

More ↓

Invite your staff, put it on your own domain (paid plans), or download the code. If you built something other people in your trade would pay for, you can list it in the store and keep 80% of every sale.

A description that works

Something like this, in your own words — you see the plan before anything is spent:

“A job board for my bike repair shop: bikes come in with a customer and a fault, move through received → in repair → waiting for parts → ready, and each finished job becomes an invoice in EUR.”

Questions

What should I write in the first description?

Who uses the app, what they do in it, and which parts are public. Use the words your trade uses. The plan you see before paying shows exactly how your words were read.

Can I start from something I already have?

Yes: a spreadsheet (.xlsx or .csv), or a photo of a price list, a menu or your opening hours.

Can Claude build it for me?

Yes. Kridona is an MCP server: create a key in Settings, add it to Claude Code or Claude Desktop, and ask for the app in chat. It builds and changes apps as you, on your credits.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You describe what the app should do in ordinary words, and you change it the same way afterwards, by asking in a chat. The code is there if you ever want it.

What does it cost?

A free account starts with 15 credits, enough for one full app and a change or two. A build costs 10 credits for an app of up to seven pages. Paid plans start at $39 a month for 40 credits.

Is the code mine?

Yes. Every file is readable from the first build, and you can download the whole project on every plan, the free one included. On a paid plan you can also put it on your own domain.
