Leap.new | Instantly Build Full-Stack AI Apps With Developer Precision

Every so often, a tool comes along that makes you rethink what’s possible. Leap.new is that quantum leap for developers: an instant AI app builder that transforms fiddly, fragmented workflows into a blissfully simple, guided process.

Ship prototypes in minutes, scale from idea to production-grade code without the grind. Leap.new collapses the path from spark to ship. It’s developer-first, API-friendly and obsessed with making you productive. From backend plumbing to UI edges, Leap brings clarity, collaboration and speed so you can go from junior to genius in days, not decades.

Coding an app “the old way” means wrestling with boilerplate, endless config and syncing fragile APIs just to get an MVP. Leap.new axes the busywork and brings rapid, AI-assisted app creation with dev-grade control.

Build Time

• Traditional App Builder: Days/weeks
• Leap.new: Minutes

Debugging

• Traditional App Builder: Manual, slow
• Leap.new: AI-assisted auto‑fix

Code Ownership

• Traditional App Builder: Locked-in, proprietary
• Leap.new: Full GitHub repo export, move to the IDE any time

Integration Support

• Traditional App Builder: Limited, brittle
• Leap.new: 1st-class: TypeScript, REST APIs, cloud DBs

Deployment Flexibility

• Traditional App Builder: Vendor lock-in, few options
• Leap.new: Deploy anywhere, own your infra

Team Onboarding

• Traditional App Builder: Manual setup, inconsistent
• Leap.new: Instant collab, frictionless hand-offs

Custom Logic

• Traditional App Builder: Painful to inject complex flows
• Leap.new: Prompt-driven AI generates robust scaffolding

Version History

• Traditional App Builder: Rare, basic
• Leap.new: Fine-grained code history, full rollback

Bug Rate

• Traditional App Builder: High: 2–5x more dev hours
• Leap.new: Up to 50% fewer bugs (with AI-assisted codex)

Learning Curve

• Traditional App Builder: Steep “framework fatigue”
• Leap.new: Prompt, preview, produce, ship on day one

Leap isn’t just faster. It’s smarter, safer and radically more flexible. [https://leap.new/]

Step-by-Step Install

1. Visit: Go to [https://leap.new/]
2. Sign Up: Log in using Google/GitHub/Email.
3. Choose App Type: Pick your stack and intended use-case (API, webapp, agent, etc.).
4. Prompt: Write your requirements (e.g., “Build a Slack bot that sends reminders”).
5. Preview: AI scaffolds the app, lets you preview, test and iterate.
6. Export: Download code to run locally or deploy to your own infra.
7. Extend: Merge with your own IDE for more advanced tweaks.

• Platform: Browser-based (works on Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari on Windows/macOS/Linux)
• No install needed (Code export runs anywhere Node.js/TypeScript is supported)
• GitHub is required for repo syncs

Q1: Is Leap.new just for “no-code” devs?

No. Leap.new targets, actual developers. It generates real, readable TypeScript code you can export, extend and ship.

Q2: Can I use Leap.new if I need custom backend logic?

Absolutely. Prompt for any logic, review it, hand off to your IDE, or wire in custom logic directly by exporting the code.

Q3: How secure is it for production apps?

Leap lets you control deployment and code ownership so you keep full control. No forced vendor lock-in.

Q4: What’s the catch with pricing?

The Free plan is generous for devs prototyping. Go Pro ($30/mo) or Team ($500/mo) for higher token limits and advanced collaboration.

Q5: Is there a public roadmap?

Yes. Features, fixes and upcoming plugins are transparently posted on Leap.new’s blog and docs.

Q6: Is there a community for support and feature requests?

Yes! Discussions and support flow through Discord (https://discord.com/invite/VwvUuYr43X https://github.com/encoredev) and GitHub (https://github.com/encoredev).

Q7: Do I lose code when I export?

No. Leap outputs full codebases, ready for local dev or production deployment.
