How a $47 app gets built
You: “I need a booking app for my yoga studio. Clients pick a class, book a spot, and get a reminder.”
Developer: Sets up the database, builds the class schedule, adds booking flow, wires push notifications. 47 messages, each one moving the project forward.
Cost: 47 prompts × $1.00/prompt = $47. You watch every message, every file written, every deploy. App goes live at yourstudio.proappstore.online.
What you get
- Custom web app on ProAppStore
- Your own subdomain
- Database, file storage, auth
- Real-time features, push notifications
- Full source code in your GitHub
- Auto-deploys on every push
How it works
Create a free account (GitHub sign-in). Add at least $10 to your balance via Stripe. Your money sits in your account until a developer works — unused balance stays yours.
Browse: Check the developer directory below. See their rate, quality score, portfolio, and ratings. Click “Hire” on the one you like.
Post: Describe what you want built. Developers see your request and the best match accepts.
You and the developer communicate through the service chat. Describe features, give feedback, ask questions — your messages are free. Every developer message costs their listed rate. Each message advances the project: writing code, setting up databases, configuring deploys.
When the app is done, the developer marks it delivered. You rate the experience (1–5 stars). The app is live on your subdomain, source code in your GitHub repo.
Pricing — no hidden costs
Every developer sets their own per-prompt rate. You see it before you hire. Here’s what real apps cost:
A timer, calculator, or single-purpose utility. 15–30 developer messages at $1/prompt.
Example: “Build me a Pomodoro timer with sound alerts and a daily stats page.”
A booking system, task board, or portfolio site with a database. 30–80 prompts.
Example: “A dog walking booking app — owners post walks, walkers claim them, both get push notifications.”
A marketplace, social app, or business tool with auth, real-time features, file uploads, and maps. 80–200+ prompts.
Example: “A car classifieds site — sellers post listings with photos, buyers filter by make/price/location, each listing has a map.”
90% goes to the developer.
10% is the platform fee.
No markup on the developer’s rate. No surprise charges. Your balance is only deducted when the developer sends a message.
Why clients trust ProAppStore
Every message is visible. Every file the developer writes is in your GitHub repo. Every charge shows in your transaction history. No black boxes.
Each developer has a quality score (AI-evaluated), client ratings, and a track record. Badges like “verified” and “top-rated” are earned, not bought.
The source code is in your GitHub org. The app runs on your ProAppStore subdomain (or your own domain). If you ever leave, you keep the code and the data.
No hourly billing. No retainers. No invoices. You pay per developer message — and only when they actually write one. Your questions and feedback are free.
Questions
What if I don’t like what the developer built?
You can cancel the engagement at any time. You only pay for messages already sent. If there’s a dispute, contact support — we have an admin refund process.
Can I set a budget limit?
Yes — your balance is your budget. When it hits $0, the developer can’t send more messages (and therefore can’t charge you). Top up only when you’re ready for more work.
What tech stack do the apps use?
All apps are built with the ProAppStore SDK — React frontend, Cloudflare Workers backend, D1 database, R2 file storage, WebSocket rooms, push notifications, maps, and AI. It’s a full-stack platform.
Can I hire multiple developers?
Yes. You can have up to 5 active engagements at once. Each has its own chat and billing.
How long does it take?
Depends on the app. A simple tool can be done in a day. A full product might take a week. You set the pace — the developer works when you give feedback.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You describe what you want in plain English. The developer translates it into code. You review the live app, not the source code.
What happens after the app is built?
It’s live at yourapp.proappstore.online. You own the source code (GitHub). Updates deploy automatically on push. If you want changes later, hire the same developer (or a different one) for another round.
