Introducing BuildShip

We at the Rowy team also launched a new product called BuildShip 🎉

BuildShip is a low-code visual API, scheduled jobs, backend cloud functions builder - in workflow style right from the browser and ship them instantly with a single click (no long build waiting time, that Rowy users complain!).

BuildShip pairs really well with Rowy and is stack-agnostic! So it works with any database like Firestore, Supabase, Postgres and you can build cloud functions for them on data changes and CRUD operations in no-code style. We've prebuilt integrations with AI models from OpenAI, Replicate, and hundreds of third-party tools.

Best part? If any integration is missing, creating a node connector with AI is a breeze. Give BuildShip a try from here or join our low-code Discord to learn more about BuildShip and Rowy.
