Blink

What Blink is
Blink is a software builder that turns natural-language descriptions into web apps, websites, and mobile apps, then hosts and keeps them running. It sets up SQL databases, schema migrations, authentication, APIs, and deployment for each app. For iOS and Android projects, Blink creates React Native apps that use shared backend infrastructure, accounts, and databases. Every app receives a live URL with SSL and a global CDN; paid production hosting adds an always-on permanent URL and autoscaling. Connectors cover 63 tools, including Gmail, Slack, Google Calendar, HubSpot, Stripe, Supabase, GitHub, and Salesforce. Authentication supports passwords, magic links, and Google, Apple, Microsoft, or GitHub sign-in, with roles and row-level security. Blink offers Android, iOS, and web access, mobile publishing, a built-in database, user authentication, and API integrations. Plans include a free option and paid plans from $25 a month.
