GPT Pilot is an open-source research project that uses AI agents to build complete apps step by step from a single prompt. You describe the app you want, and its agents plan the architecture, write the code file by file, and check their work, showing you each step as they go.

Key Features

  • Open-source research project for agent-built apps
  • Builds apps step by step from a single prompt
  • Transparent plan, code, and decisions
  • Agents plan architecture before coding
  • Works with models of your choice
  • Free and open source

How it works

The project is designed to explore how AI agents can build software, not to be the fastest way to ship a product. It is transparent about its process, so you can see the plan, the code, and the decisions the agents make, and you can steer them when they go wrong.

GPT Pilot is free and open source; you pay only for the model API usage you choose. It is best for researchers, students, and curious developers who want to understand how agent-built software works, rather than for production development.
