It was VibeFlow without AI, built within a month. People could import their UIs from tools like Lovable and then "build the backend manually with this drag and drop interface" — "there was no AI involved and then it evolved afterwards."

Alessia describes a deliberately bare first version. "It was by flow without AI, so basically we allowed people to import their UIs from other tools like [Lovable] for example and then we allowed them to build the backend manually with this drag and drop interface, but there was no AI involved and then it evolved afterwards." The problem they were testing: people were combining tools like Lovable to create functional prototypes with full backends, but that meant "3 different platforms, so imagine 3 different subscriptions... it was just like a Frankenstein approach, this is how we call it." VibeFlow's answer was "an all in one solution where people could just build their backend and then export the code and have their application" and own it. They narrowed the first use case to "AI agent integration with the database," then added the AI element and launched on Product Hunt.
