Hey Product Hunt!
I am pumped to show off our "work in progress" to the no code community (and NEW know-nothing no coders - these are my favorite).
❓ Why we built V.One:
As a non technical founder I know what it’s like to not be able to make your tech idea come to life. Growing up with nothing, I didn’t have access to a computer with internet, let alone access to resources to learn to code. Also, growing up I wanted nothing more than to be an entrepreneur.
When I had my app idea, I was abandoned by 14 different technical co founders, hired offshore freelancers, and tried to code myself, because I had little money.
These things are personal for me. Helping the true, non technical people who have ideas but cannot make them. Empowering the most non technical person to build an app. Not hire a progressional to build it for you. Making it so easy quite literally anyone can do it.
Only 4% of people know how to navigate a CMS. Even less can afford the risk of hiring a freelancer, bringing on a technical co founder, or paying the high costs involved with having someone else to build it for them.
Lead by a non technical founder who has been through exactly what our customers have been through no one knows the problem better than we do. No one will commit to making an easier solution. One where you don’t have to be highly motivated in order to overcome the learning curve in order to be an app maker. Everyone should have access to technology and we want v.one to be the place where non technical people build their ideas.
With V.One you can:
✅ Design inside our app builder or upload designs you already have. It could not be more simple.
✅ Download your source code and extend it, so you or a tech teammate can build on to it as you see fit.
✅ Focus on your end users while making money with form payments, e-commerce and memberships.
✅ Launch your app to TestFlight to test with beta customers, or launch in the App or Android store with one click.
Does our builder not do something you need it to? No worries. Just request a feature and we'll get to it.
We’d love for you to check it out and let us know what you think!
@thejeremyredman Congrats on the launch Jeremy!
I’m really looking forward to watching this app and projects Makers create with it. I think there is a huge need in the area of simplifying the process and reducing the learning curve within the native app no-code space. V.one addresses that head on. Looking forward to seeing more!
@michaeljnovotny Thank you, Michael! We already are working with lots of really amazing people from all over. It's very exciting to help folks from all industries launch an app in the easiest way possible.
@thejeremyredman Congrats ! Looks awesome !
Do you think possible to use it with french texts ?!
Would be awesome to use it for some clients in here !
@ecp_digital Hi there! What do you mean by French texts? It probably can!
You guys are a scam. I've tried it for a couple of months and then deactivated the account (there was no button to unsubscribe), and you're still charging me 14 dollars per month. I've written you 3 emails and you're guys ignoring it and sending me a "discount coupon".
Also tried to reach out to you guys on Twitter. But also got ignored. https://twitter.com/sergeybunas/...
You're the first no-code service that treats their users like this.
Besides, you claim that apps made with your platform are "native" but actually they are far away from "native". And they just are web pages. Compared to other services that use React-Native (Adalo, Draftbit, Thunkable)
I will definitely not recommend this no-code platform.
@serjobas Hi Sergey! Thanks for reaching out. We haven't been ignoring you actually. The emails you have received are an automation that helps us save time and offer a discount to users who would benefit from a little break. Keith, with whom you've chatted before reached out to me and I personally canceled your account on October 31st. You will not be charged anymore. From your Twitter bio, I can see that you are a front-end developer which is awesome. Our builder, however, was designed with the non-technical founder in mind, which differentiates us from some of those platforms you mentioned. I'm sorry that you think we are a scam but we certainly aren't. We'd be happy to address any other concerns. And we don't mind doing so publicly so, let me know if there is anything else I can help you with :)
Really great product! I like no-code solutions, but will I have a possibility to add server or database to my app?
@ivan_zenkovich Right now we are integrating with Airtable only. What server or database would you like to see integrated with v.one?
I have been using Glide for 6 months. I was hoping the canvas and webflow integrations would make this a killer steal to move over. Unfortunately, everything is really buggy and not ready for beta. I'll hold out until this is more polished and ready for prime time. Best of luck!
Seems like an easy product to use and to get a first version out. Is that the intention of this product? Or is the intention to build an app that can monetize and keep up with customer requests? Being a non-technical cofounder, I certainly wish that I can build things myself but delivering the app is often times just one of many moving parts (on top of back end, subscriptions, email system, security etc.) that require a team of developers to manage. Where do you see this product going and how far do you think it can take non-technical founders?
@melissa_kwan So. our intention is definitely to help founders get a first version of their app live as quickly as possible. That way you can start learning right away what works and what doesn't and begin strategizing how to take the app further. And we basically make it so that you don't have to worry about all those "moving parts." Our aim is that within a year users can push out an app and either make it live on the app store with us OR having tested it out and discovered it to be successful, export the source code from us and hand it to a team of developers. At this point, we will have already helped you monetize (and of course, this will vary depending on your venture) and helped you create an audience and gain insights from your app. We don't really envision users living in our platform for many years (though they are more than welcome to!) Hope that answers your question. If you'd like a demo of the app, you can book a session with Keith and he'll show around: https://bit.ly/vone-keith
@melissa_kwan @thejeremyredman Thank you! That all makes sense. In On Deck Fellowship there are a lot of early founders without technical cofounders that are looking for validation and I think this could be an option for them to start poking around to validate their idea. Are there any examples of apps that have monetized using no-code applications to build? I will share this with a few friends I know that this may be applicable for.
@melissa_kwan Yeah, that sounds great! You can check out Guidance, this is one of our success stories: theguidanceapp.com. For any others questions, you can always reach us here: support(at)yourvone.com. Would love to set up a call and chat soon!
It's so sad that there is no trial. Currently we have 3 paid apps in glide and the interface is very similar to glide which I like so much.
Here is my scenario : Our website is built on Squarespace and we are planning a migration to Webflow anytime soon. I cannot imagine how V.One makes our workflow easier when our migration is completed.
But unfortunately I would not pay for one year for a product which I'm not sure that I will use definitely.
If there will be a monthly plan for trying I would definitely purchase it.
@zeki_dikmen I totally get it. Make sure you sign up for our waitlist so you can be notified when it's free to try :)
@swebliss1 That's a great idea! We'll be still be adding features for the rest of the year and into 2021 so, a lot more coming soon!
Congrats on the launch @thejeremyredman. I am keen on giving this a go. I just checked examples page. I can see the apps, but they don't have a link to the app store. It would be better if you can provide live apps in app store, so that we can really feel how good the output is.
@rajan_ramachandran Check this out: https://bit.ly/vone-examples links to the app store found there
@thejeremyredman let´s say i have a website with an API, that supports LOGIN and making queries... the login is token-based.... is it possible to build an app that support login an user-based data loaded via an external API ?
@michabbb Yeah! As far as APIs are concerned, we can integrate with most :)
@michabbb @thejeremyredman thanks for your feedback. is there any docu out there that gives more detailed infos howto connect my app to my custom API ???
@michabbb Not public docs. The way it works is that we help you do that once you sign up for a paid annual plan. If you have any questions, you can reach out to Keith directly, he handles support: keith@yourvone.com
Big fan of V.One! I'm quoted on their website as calling it "the most f***ing beautiful NoCode tool I have ever seen" and for good reason! V.One not only has a gorgeous and easy to use interface of it's own, but it helps you make your own mobile apps beautiful with a super-clever "X-Ray" Mode that gives you tips and tricks on making your app look as good as possible
Such a killer product from Jeremy and the team, I'm so excited for this launch! This is just what the no-code game needed and it's exciting to see it all come together. I have no doubt that a lot of first time makers and builders will find their home with V.One. And I have to say X-Ray mode might be the coolest feature ever 😜😎. Congrats @thejeremyredman!
@gill_works Glad to get kudos from no-code royalty like yourself, Mr. Automation King!!!! U[X]-Ray mode is one of the best things to happen to us for sure!!!
Hi Guys! I've been looking for an affordable app builder and love the first look of V.One. But I don't see how many apps we can build at each price level anywhere - do the prices reflect only one app? Or can we build more, especially in the Startup and Growth levels? Good luck!!
@steven_hoagland @thejeremyredman Thanks for the fast reply. I suggest you consider noting this on your price page. If we download the code for an app and delete it from your platform, does that free up the slot for another app? My target audience has a lot of non-profits so a one-off builder may not be the best model. Thanks again!
Thanks for the feedback! @steven_hoagland That is correct though, if you did download the source code you could start over.
I hate to be negative, but I gave this a whirl and it was not even close to being ready to deliver the value in the demo and on the website. And even more upsetting, just after trying it for a few days and asking for my money back (i think it was around $90!!) they said no. They refused to give a refund bc it's in their policy when you sign up, so I get that. I just think it's not the sign of great software. Confident designers and builders should give money back guarantee within a small window, imo, if the tool does not meet expectation.
@eve_weinberg Hi Eve! Thanks for the feedback. I’m sorry that we didn’t meet your expectations. Would looove to know more specifically the value you were expecting to see. We’ve already added a ton of stuff in the last week alone. You can email me or shoot me a DM. I’m really interested in what you have to say.
Hey, this product is really great! Would it be possible to have a wordpress connection? I would want to have my articles from my site on a app with your tool.
@_entropea Right now we don't have a native integration with Wordpress but we do integrate with Webflow. We might support that in the future though! If you get on a paid plan, we can definitely build something for you as part of your custom feature request :)
Best app I've seen for creating no-code apps. As a developer, being able to export an actual react native app is just amazing. Would make a first prototype using VOne for sure next time instead of coding!
Hi @thejeremyredman , I couldn't find any way to contact you or your support from your website, so asking here. I am interested to jump on the early access paid plan, is this for a single app? Or can we make multiple apps from one account?
@jesse_alvarado Hi Jesse! Sorry about that. You can always use the video chat in the website or email us at support@yourvone.com. With the early access paid plan you get to design and ship one app. If you have any questions, you can email the support email and Keith will help you out OR even better, book a demo with him: bitly.com/keith-vone
@yourvone @thejeremyredman Thanks for the fast support! Much appreciated, congrats on the launch and looking forward to seeing V.One grow :)
I recommend V.One highly as I have used it myself and have had several students use the platform and love it!
?makers I need something like this to make an events app. The one I had before was really nice but then features started dropping off and support wouldn't answer emails so I canceled. One of the most important things is being able to edit on the fly w/out having to send an update to Apple/Google. Is this possible?
@garrett_mickley Yeah, let's talk! You can send us an email at support@yourvone.com and we'll continue the conversation there OR schedule a demo with Keith: https://bit.ly/vone-keith
