A Virtual Software Company powered entirely by AI.
⚡️ From idea to production — a hierarchical multi-agent team of AI specialists (PM, BA, UI/UX, Dev, Tester, DevOps) auto-builds your software. Zero coding. Zero management. Deploy-ready.
Built on ZeroClaw — the Rust-first autonomous agent runtime.

Describe your idea. The AI team takes over — analyzing, designing, coding, testing, and deploying.
No coding skills. No team management. Just results.
Virtual Software Company · Hierarchical Multi-Agent · Zero Management · Isolated Sandboxes · Deploy-Ready
ZeroBuild is a Virtual Software Company powered entirely by AI. Through a Hierarchical Multi-Agent System, you provide a raw idea in natural language, and ZeroBuild automatically assembles a team of AI specialists — Project Manager, Business Analyst, UI/UX Designer, Developer, Tester, and DevOps Engineer — that coordinate to automate the entire software development lifecycle and deliver a production-ready product.
Think of it as hiring an entire software team, but it's all AI — and it costs pennies.
What you can build:
- 🌐 Web applications — Next.js, React, Vue, static sites
- 📱 Mobile apps — React Native, Flutter, Ionic
- ⚙️ Backend services — APIs, microservices, serverless functions
- 🛠️ CLI tools & scripts — Python, Node.js, Rust utilities
- 🎮 Games & interactive apps — WebGL, Canvas, game prototypes
- 🤖 Automation & bots — Scrapers, workflows, integrations
- And anything else you can describe...
Core values:
- 🚀 Idea to Code in minutes — Shrink development time from months to hours
- 🤖 Zero Management — No coding skills, no team management; the Orchestrator (CEO/Master Agent) handles all task delegation and supervision
- 💰 Ultra-low cost — Replace expensive engineering teams with API token costs
- 🏭 Full SDLC automation — Requirements → Design → Code → Test → Deploy, all automated
Key capabilities:
- 🏢 Hierarchical multi-agent factory — Orchestrator (CEO) spawns specialized sub-agents (BA, UI/UX, Dev, Tester, DevOps) with dedicated contexts and permissions
- 🔄 Cross-agent collaboration — BA writes PRD → UI/UX creates design spec → Dev implements → Tester validates → automatic fix loops until perfect → DevOps deploys
- 🏗️ Plan-before-build workflow — Agent proposes a structured plan; you confirm before any code is written
- 🔒 Isolated sandboxes — Every build runs in an isolated local process sandbox; host credentials and filesystem stay untouched
- 🌐 Live preview URLs — Get public HTTPS links to running web apps
- 🚀 GitHub connector — Connect your GitHub account via OAuth to create repos, push code, open/comment on issues, manage PRs, post inline code reviews, and reply to discussions — all from chat
- 🧠 Intelligent model routing — Automatic model recommendations based on task type
- 💬 Multi-channel support — Use Telegram, Discord, Slack, or CLI — your choice
# 1. Clone and bootstrap
git clone https://github.com/potlock/zerobuild.git
cd zerobuild
./bootstrap.sh
# 2. Build the release binary
cargo build --release
# 3. Onboard with your API keys
./target/release/zerobuild onboard --interactive
# 4. Start the gateway
./target/release/zerobuild gatewayThen message your bot: "Build me a REST API for a todo app" or "Create a mobile app for tracking expenses"
See the full Setup Guide for detailed instructions.

Local Process Sandbox ← Isolated Build Environment
• Temp directory with cleared environment (no credential leaks)
• Scaffolds projects, installs dependencies
• Runs dev servers on localhost with live preview URLs
Dual-mode architecture: ZeroBuild operates in two modes:
- Single-agent mode (default) — One unified agent handles conversation, planning, coding, and deployment
- Factory mode (opt-in) — The Orchestrator (CEO/Master Agent) spawns specialized sub-agents with dedicated contexts and permissions, coordinating the full SDLC: analysis → parallel build → dev-test iteration loops → deployment
See ARCHITECTURE.md for the full multi-agent design.
- Describe — Provide your idea in natural language (any language, any channel)
- Plan — The Orchestrator (CEO) analyzes feasibility and proposes a plan
- Confirm — You approve the plan (or request changes)
- Spawn — The Orchestrator creates specialized sub-agents (BA, UI/UX, Dev, Tester, DevOps) with dedicated contexts
- Build — Agents collaborate autonomously:
- BA writes requirements (PRD) → shared with all agents
- UI/UX, Dev, and Tester work in parallel
- Dev-Tester auto-fix loop runs until all tests pass
- Deploy — DevOps agent deploys the finished product (live URL + GitHub repo)
- Iterate — Request changes; the team re-engages and rebuilds
