Show HN: Pipo360 – Generate production-ready back end APIs in 60 seconds with AI
Hi HN ,
I got tired of writing the same boilerplate over and over — DB setup, auth, routes, security — every time I built a backend.
So I built Pipo360 — an AI-powered tool that generates production-ready backends in under 60 seconds, from just a plain-text description.
How it works:
Type what you need
“Create a task management API with user auth and MongoDB”
Hit Generate
Get real, exportable code
Auth (JWT)
Database schema
CRUD routes
Deployable to Vercel, AWS, etc.
No templates. No lock-in. Just code that works.
Why it’s different:
Built with Gemini AI + human supervision (to ensure real prod-quality output)
Exports to MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite
Secure by default (JWT, RBAC, etc.)
Supports no-login backend previews
Try it live (No signup needed):

Would love feedback:
What backend would you try first?
What would make it better for your workflow?
Would open sourcing part of it be useful?

- kleiba 1y agoAren't you worried that this functionality will just be available in one of the regular AI IDEs in one of their next updates?
- hilti 1y agoLooks interesting but I don‘t understand the pricing. Why the monthly plan if I deploy to my computing resources?
- the_plug 1y agoUnlimited backend generations (vs. limited free gens) AI-powered enhancements to evolve your code Access to the in-browser editor, project management, versioning Future features like team collab You’re free to deploy anywhere — Vercel, AWS, your own VPS, etc. The plan is about giving you a complete dev experience, not locking you in. Open to feedback — would love to hear what pricing model you'd prefer!
- klez 1y agoIn some parts of Italy, the name will make people's inner 12-year-old giggle. It sounds like a childish name for "penis". Do what you will with this information.
- makapuf 1y agoAlso, in French, pipeau is a kind of flute. "Playing flute" meaning bulshitting. Do what you will with this information.
- the_plug 1y agoLuckily, at Pipo360, we’re doing the opposite: cutting through BS and giving devs real, working backends in 60 seconds. No flute-playing here. Just code. French devs — we see you
- gardenhedge 1y agoThis reply was 100% generated by chatgpt. It always gives me that style. "No <X> here. Just <Y>"
- the_plug 1y agoNo prompts here. Just a dev building fast and figuring it out in public
- averageRoyalty 1y agoYou literally have em-dashes in your reply and original post. You are following the very standard "No X, no Y - just Z" ChatGPT speech pattern. You are either lying or you've learnt english from ChatGPT.
- gardenhedge 1y agoVery rude to continue to lie about it

- can16358p 1y agoSo, the initial demo is nice but I'm wondering at what level of complexity does it start "breaking"/hallucinating and not start producing anything useful. Having said that, tools like this are the future for sure!
- the_plug 1y agoGreat question — and totally fair. Right now, Pipo360 handles CRUD-heavy apps, user auth, and DB integration across 16 frameworks + 14 DBs really well. But yes — when you ask for complex, multi-service architectures or deeply custom business logic, the AI can still hallucinate or need refinement. We're actively working on grounding and constraints to improve that. That said, we've shipped: Live code editing AI refinement (on top of generated code) Full project management So if it doesn't get it right 100%, you can still tweak it in-browser instantly. And you're absolutely right — this is the future. Our goal: take you from boilerplate to 80% of a usable backend in 60 seconds or less. Would love to know what you’d want it to build — happy to test its limits with you.
- rco8786 1y agoGenuine question, was this reply generated or in any way augmented by AI?
- the_plug 1y agonah , i have taken time to write it nothing much
- averageRoyalty 1y ago100% AI written for sure. You can tell by the final call to action, the em-dashes and the nauseating "always agree with the user" style of response.
- the_plug 1y agoHey HN Just wanted to share a big update on Pipo360 since the original post — thanks to your feedback, it's evolved from an AI backend generator into a full dev workspace. Here’s what’s new: 16 frameworks supported (Express, Django, Spring Boot, Rails, etc.) 14 databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, etc.) AI-powered code enhancement (edit & improve generated code) Full in-browser code editor Project saving, loading, and 1-click export Real-time sync across sessions We’re working on 1-click deploy, team collaboration, and API testing next. Try it here (no signup required): https://pipo360.xyz https://pipo360.xyz Would love your thoughts: What features would make this serious enough to replace Firebase/Supabase in your workflow? What part still feels “AI toy” vs “real dev tool”? Where do you think it will break or fall short at scale? Appreciate everyone who tried it out and gave feedback — this is being built with you, not just for you.
