I wanted to share some information about building apps with AI. A little about me first - I'm the founder of No Code MBA, a learning platform teaching no-code. Our latest course, Building Apps with AI, has been really popular and I wanted to share some more knowledge I've picked up about building apps with AI.
The Basic Stack: Use Zapier
The easiest way to start building with AI is to use Zapier's OpenAI integration.
You can use a Google Form, Zapier, and a Google Sheet to build a simple AI app that takes your input from the form, uses a prompt and OpenAI, and gives you an output on your Google Sheet.
To take this to the next level, you can use the Zapier OpenAI connection and save the result in Webflow, giving you the ability to use AI to display results on a live webpage.
The Advanced Stack: Use Bubble + APIs
For more advanced AI apps, I'd recommend using Bubble.
Bubble allows you to build fully functioning web apps with a database, logic, and a front end.
Using Bubble's API connector you can connect to any API, including OpenAI, Stable Diffusion APIs, and more.
A few stacks to keep in mind:
An AI Writer App: Bubble + the OpenAI API
An AI Image Generation App: Bubble + the Replicate API which uses Stable Diffusion
An AI Avatar App: Bubble + the Replicate API + Dreambooth to train your own model
Building with AI isn't as hard as you might think. If I can answer any questions about building with AI just let me know!
Thanks Seth! Using an API is definitely a great shortcut vs setting it up yourself on the cloud.
If anyone is looking for AI APIs, check out Evoke. We're currently working on a stable diffusion API and launching soon, we'll notify everyone through discord and our newsletter when we launch
It'll be cheaper and faster than Replicate, especially with our other Stable Diffusion models we plan to have, and other AI models in general in the future + dreambooth
Thank you Seth! Really useful resources 🙏🏼
You can also design chatbots & conversational apps without knowing how to code, and for free!
