Hodman AI
Hodman AI - coding agent for non-programmers
Hodman helps non-programmers to |
Best OpenAI models
Works on existing code
Import ZIPs, connect Git repos and continue shipping.
Built for ownership
Use your hosting, your OpenAI token or deploy on premises.
What you can build
From a first clickable prototype to a production system
Hodman is not limited to mockups. It builds and evolves software that teams can publish, integrate and operate.
Clickable prototypes
Turn an idea into a polished prototype you can click through and share with stakeholders.
Landing pages
Ship customer-facing landing pages with modern UI, forms and clear conversion flows.
API-first applications
Build real backends with OpenAPI, typed contracts and production-ready endpoints.
Chatbots and assistants
Create support bots, workflow assistants and AI-powered conversational experiences.
Personal and team tools
Generate dashboards, internal systems and niche tools that match how your team actually works.
SaaS
Build SaaS products with auth, billing-ready flows and scalable deployment paths.
Freemium desktop path
Build real web applications for your business.
Hodman Desktop lets you use the ChatGPT subscription you already pay for to create, run and keep improving business web apps locally.
Connect ChatGPT
Use your own ChatGPT plan in the Mac app instead of paying for cloud model usage first.
Run locally
Files, containers, preview and logs live on your machine for the free local workflow.
For non-programmers
Describe the business problem; Hodman brings recipes, skills, preview, logs and the path to keep improving the app.
Why not just ChatGPT or Codex?
The model writes code. Hodman helps you run and evolve the app.
A business app needs more than generated files: it needs a place to run, a preview to click, logs to inspect, data to understand and a workflow to keep improving.
Preview-first
Judge the work by opening the product, not by reading a code diff.
Runtime context
Hodman can use files, logs, database state and analytics to choose better fixes.
Recipes for real outcomes
Start with business jobs like internal tools, automations, CRM helpers, landing pages, assistants and dashboards.
How to start
Start fresh or continue from what you already have.
Hodman is designed for both greenfield work and existing codebases. It can take over the routine parts of implementation without forcing you into a new stack.
Start from zero
Describe the product, goals and constraints, and Hodman will scaffold the project from scratch.
Upload a ZIP or connect Git
Bring an existing project as an archive or pull it directly from Git so Hodman can continue from the current state.
Use more than one repository
Keep frontend, backend and supporting services in separate repos and let Hodman work across all of them in one project.
How to run
Run, fix and validate in one workflow
Preview before launch, publish when ready, and ask Hodman questions to understand what is happening in your product.
Run and fix with less back-and-forth
Preview before launch, publish when ready, assign your domain, and let Hodman inspect logs and the database to suggest the best fixes.
Live preview
Open the running app before release and validate UX with your team.
Publish
Ship updates to production without rebuilding your delivery pipeline.
Your domain
You do not need to figure out where to publish the result.
How Fix helps
Hodman looks into logs and database state, explains root causes and proposes stronger fixes instead of guesswork.
Validate with your own data
Analytics stays part of your product and your database, so Hodman can help you understand results without locking your insight into the platform.
Better insight
Ask Hodman AI about your analytics, goals and hypotheses. It can guide what to measure and how to read the results, including percentiles, samples and cohort analysis.
Own data
Instrumentation lives in your code and writes into your product database, not into platform-only analytics.
Infrastructure and ownership
Useful defaults, transparent pricing and no vendor lock-in.
Hodman removes setup friction but keeps ownership with the customer.
Infra included from day one
Each project can start with PostgreSQL and file storage already available, so you do not need to wire external services before building.
Transparent pricing
There is no separate hosting tariff. You can use your own hosting and you can also connect your own OpenAI token.
No vendor lock-in
Hodman supports on-premises setups, and the applications it creates can be taken with you when needed.
Everything needed to ship
Start fast with built-in project infrastructure and keep the option to customize the runtime around it.
PostgreSQL and file storage
Project infrastructure is already there, so teams can focus on product work first.
Custom base image
Use your own Docker base image when your stack needs stricter control.
On-premises support
Run Hodman in environments where infrastructure and data must stay inside your perimeter.
Exportable projects
The code, runtime setup and analytics approach are designed so you can keep the result outside the platform.

What is Cr?
Cr are usage credits for AI work in Hodman.
1 Cr = $1.
Like most AI products, we use model APIs and pay for every request. We keep Cr pricing transparent and close to operating cost, with only transaction and infrastructure overhead.
Each plan includes a monthly Cr amount sized for normal product work. If you run out during the billing period, you can top up at any time. Purchased Cr do not expire.
Cr is spent on each AI interaction. Typical usage:
- Landing page from a single prompt — around 1.5 Cr.
- First version of a web app feature — around 2-3 Cr.
- UI or business logic adjustments in an existing project — from 0.05 Cr to 0.5 Cr.
- Questions about project implementation or data — from 0.01 Cr to 0.3 Cr.
