Questions, answered plainly.
Everything worth knowing about how PIRAPLEX plans, builds, and deploys software - and what stays yours. If your question is not here, reach us any time.
The basics
What exactly does PIRAPLEX do?+
You describe an app in plain language. A planning agent turns that into a build plan, and specialized agents build the data model, the API and business logic, the interface, and the infrastructure - handing off to each other as they go. The result is a real, deployable system, not a mockup.
How is this different from a single AI writing code?+
One model trying to hold an entire system at once tends to get each layer slightly wrong. PIRAPLEX splits the work across specialists that read each other's output, the way a real team does, so the pieces stay consistent with one another.
Do I need to be a developer to use it?+
No. Founders and non-technical builders can describe an idea and get a working product. Engineering teams can use it to scaffold quickly and then take the code in-house. Both start from the same plain-language description.
Building
Can I change my mind while a build is running?+
Yes. You can redirect a build in progress - switch the database, make auth role-based, add a feature - and the agents replan around the change instead of starting over. Only the affected work is redone.
Can I see what is happening during a build?+
Every meaningful step is shown as it happens - the schema forming, endpoints appearing, and pages rendering - along with a live build log. Visibility is a core part of the product, not an afterthought.
How accurate is the generated system?+
Because builds are generated, output can vary, so you review what is produced before relying on it. At a few points - such as confirming inferred data relationships or deployment configuration - the build pauses for your approval.
Your code and ownership
Who owns the code that gets built?+
You do, on every plan. The output is standard, readable source you can export in full and take to your own repository and hosting. PIRAPLEX is where it gets built, not where it stays.
Is there any lock-in?+
No. The generated codebase is ordinary code, not an opaque bundle. You can move it to your own infrastructure whenever you choose, and what was built keeps running there.
Deployment and infrastructure
What gets provisioned automatically?+
A database matched to your schema, hosting for the backend and frontend, and environment configuration - with secrets stored as config values rather than written into the source.
Can I deploy to my own infrastructure?+
Standard targets are included on Starter and Growth. Team plans add custom infrastructure targets, so builds can point at the environment your organization already uses.
Plans
Which plan should I start on?+
Starter fits a first real project. Growth suits shipping several projects with priority builds and higher limits. Team adds a shared workspace, custom infrastructure targets, and priority support for teams building together.
What happens to my projects if I change plans?+
Your projects and any code you have exported stay yours. Changing plans adjusts limits and available features going forward - it does not remove what a build has already produced.
Security
How are my code and data handled?+
Traffic is encrypted in transit and stored project data and code are encrypted at rest. Your source is kept while a project is active and removed on request when you delete it. Access is scoped to your account and the people you invite.
What can PIRAPLEX access when it deploys?+
Deployment uses credentials scoped to the specific target - never broad access to your accounts. It provisions and deploys what a project needs and does not reach into unrelated infrastructure.

The fastest way to understand PIRAPLEX is to watch a build. Or send us a note and we will get back to you.
