Frequently Asked Questions

Technical and operational questions about our multi-agent platform

Getting Started

What is BuildGreenField?

BuildGreenField is an AI-powered platform that generates production-ready software projects from plain English descriptions. We handle scaffolding, configuration, testing, and deployment so you can focus on your product.

How is this different from using templates?

Templates give you a starting point that you have to modify manually. BuildGreenField generates custom code tailored to your exact requirements, with all services pre-wired and tested. Every project is unique, not a one-size-fits-all template.

Do I need coding experience?

While BuildGreenField simplifies the initial setup, understanding code is helpful for customization. Our ideal users are technical founders, product managers, or developers who want to skip boilerplate setup.

Technical

What tech stacks do you support?

We support Node.js, Python, and Go for backends. React, Vue, and Svelte for frontends. PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and MySQL for databases. We're constantly adding new stacks based on user demand.

Can I use TypeScript?

Yes! TypeScript is the default for all JavaScript/TypeScript projects. We generate fully typed code with strict type checking enabled.

How do you handle database migrations?

We use modern ORMs (Prisma for Node.js, SQLAlchemy for Python) with automatic migration generation. Every schema change is tracked and can be rolled back.

What about testing?

Unit tests, integration tests, and E2E tests are generated alongside your code using industry-standard frameworks (Jest, Pytest, Playwright). Tests run automatically on every preview deployment.

Security & Privacy

How is my data isolated from other projects?

Every project runs in a completely isolated environment with its own database, file storage, and runtime. No shared state, no data leakage between projects.

Do you store my code?

Yes, we store your generated code to enable version control, rollback, and iteration. However, you can export and delete your projects at any time. We never train AI models on your private code.

Is my source code secure?

All code is encrypted at rest and in transit. Access is restricted to your account. Team members require explicit permissions. We follow SOC 2 Type II security standards.

Deployment & Hosting

Where are preview deployments hosted?

Preview deployments run on our managed infrastructure (AWS/GCP). They're production-like environments with real databases and services.

Can I deploy to my own infrastructure?

Yes! Export your code and deploy anywhere—Vercel, Netlify, AWS, your own servers. We also offer one-click deployment to major platforms (coming soon).

What about custom domains?

Pro and Team plans support custom domains for preview deployments. Configure your domain in the project settings.

Pricing & Plans

Is there a free tier?

Yes! The Free tier lets you generate one complete project to test BuildGreenField. No credit card required.

Can I export my code and cancel?

Absolutely. You own your code. Export it anytime and deploy wherever you want. No lock-in.

What happens if I downgrade?

You keep access to all generated code, but lose some features (e.g., version rollback, custom domains). Preview deployments may be purged after the free tier retention period.
