# Buildy

> Buildy is an all-in-one AI business platform. Users describe what they want in a conversation, and Buildy helps them launch and operate a real business with a website or app, marketing, customer communications, content, and business tools.

Buildy serves idea-stage founders, experts and creators who are productizing what they know, and existing small businesses that want to modernize their operations.

Public marketing pages and the Help Center can be read without an account. An account is required to build or manage a business in Buildy. Buildy does not offer a public REST API; AI assistants connect through the MCP server below.
