Polymai is an app-building workflow in VS Code. It turns a plain-language idea into a clear build plan, coordinates the coding work, and keeps the result easy to preview, review, and improve.

How does Polymai build apps?

You run Polymai first to turn the brief into a scoped project and portable task files. Then you run the coding agent you prefer—Codex, Claude Code, or another compatible coder. When the coding work is done, Polymai detects runtime changes, guides provisioning, verifies readiness, and keeps the same project ready for the next update.

What kinds of apps can Polymai help create?

Polymai is suited for SaaS tools, customer portals, dashboards, internal workflows, admin panels, data-backed apps, and service-connected prototypes.

Which services can Polymai provision?

Polymai can plan and provision detected Supabase, Edge Function, Stripe, secret, and GitHub setup for apps with sign-in, saved data, file uploads, payments, email, AI features, scheduled tasks, webhooks, and publishing. Provisioning is one-click by default, can run automatically in test mode, and keeps live payment changes explicit.

How does Polymai handle provider secrets?

Polymai keeps private service keys out of public app files and places sensitive work behind server-side or provider-owned boundaries.

What do users need to start with Polymai?

Users need VS Code, an app idea, a coding agent, and access to any outside services the app requires. Polymai prepares the project first; the user then runs Codex, Claude Code, or another compatible coder against the prepared task files.

App building, under control

Turn your app idea into working software.

One clear path from brief to a checked, maintainable app.

Polymai plans the work. Codex, Claude Code, or another compatible coder writes the code. Polymai then connects services and checks every result.

How it works

You bring the idea. Polymai keeps the build on track.

No technical specification is required. You can review every step before the code changes.

Describe the outcome

Start with who the app is for, what people should do, and what success looks like.

Review the plan

See the pages, data, services, files, and checks before the build begins.

Run your coder

Run Codex, Claude Code, or another compatible coding agent against the prepared task.

What you get

A real app project, not a disposable code answer.

Keep the code, data setup, provisioning, previews, and checks in one project you can inspect and improve.

The plan, app files, ongoing provisioning, preview, and checks stay together.

Ongoing provisioning

App services keep up with every code change.

After each coder run, Polymai finds what changed, updates the services the app needs, and shows anything still missing.

Detect what changed

Polymai reads the current project again after every build or update.

Connect required services

Update only the services the current app actually uses.

Check the result

See immediately whether the app and its services are ready.

Controlled by design: only services found in the current project are changed. Live payment changes always require confirmation.

App services

Use what the app needs — nothing extra.

Connect data, sign-in, payments, email, AI, and publishing only when required.
