Do I need to know how to code?

No. Describe what you want. Otto builds with you and explains the why as you go.

Are these real apps I own?

Yes. They run, can save data, publish with a link, and you can download the file. Not throwaway demos.

Free to start. Signup free to save. Pro $19/mo. Builder $39/mo for advanced guided features.

Build path, not a form dump

Otto walks a real process with you — vision → plan → core → pieces → ship — one stage at a time, teaching as you go. You pick a direction once; then you stay on your app.
