Welcome to Vybe — your AI-powered internal tool builder that turns text prompts into fully functional business apps. This guide walks you through building your first app: from describing what you need to deploying a live tool your team can use.

​
Step 1. Create your first app

1

Log in and start a new app

Go to your Vybe dashboard and click New App. Give it a name (e.g., Chargeback Tracker).
2

Describe what you want to build

In the chat panel, tell the AI what your app should do. Be specific about what data the app works with, what actions users can take, and what the UI should look like. For example:
Build an app to manage chargebacks. Show a table of Stripe disputes with status, amount, and customer info. Let my team add notes to each dispute and mark them as resolved.
3

Watch it build

Click Send. The AI generates your full application — database schema, pages, components, and API routes. You can follow along in the Preview tab as the app takes shape.
Your prompt is the blueprint of your app. The more specific you are about data, actions, and layout, the better the result. See Prompting Best Practices for strategies that work well.

​
Step 2. Connect your data

Most internal tools need data from the services your team already uses.
1

Open Integrations

Navigate to Integrations in the left sidebar of your dashboard.
2

Connect a service

Find your service from over 3,000 supported integrations — Slack, HubSpot, Jira, Stripe, Salesforce, Google Sheets, and more. Click Connect and authorize access.
3

Use it in your app

Once connected, tell the AI to use the integration in your app:
Pull in our open Stripe disputes and display them in the chargebacks table.
Vybe syncs data in real time — no import/export steps needed.
You can also connect external databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Amazon Redshift) directly. See External Databases for details.

​
Step 3. Test and iterate

1

Preview your app

Switch to the Preview tab to interact with your app as a user would. Click through pages, fill out forms, and test workflows.
2

Refine with follow-up prompts

Send additional messages to adjust anything:
Add a filter dropdown to show only disputes over $500. Also add a “Last Updated” column to the table.
The AI updates your app while preserving everything that already works.
3

Switch models if needed

If a task is particularly complex, switch to Opus 4.5 - High for deeper reasoning. For quick tweaks, Sonnet 4.5 or Haiku 4.5 are faster and more cost-effective. See Choosing a Model.

​
Step 4. Deploy

1

Publish your app

Click the Deploy button in the top navigation bar. Vybe builds and deploys your app to a dedicated URL.
2

Share with your team

Your app is live at appname-orgname.vybe.build. All members of your organization with the right access level can use it immediately.
Deployments are instant and automatic. Each deploy creates a new version — you can roll back at any time if something goes wrong.
