Accepted Answer

Unlike visual builders that output proprietary code, GenMB generates clean, exportable HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, or TypeScript code. You get full source code ownership with zero vendor lock-in. GenMB is also conversational—describe what you want in plain English instead of dragging and dropping elements. You can export your code and host it anywhere.

Question 34

How is GenMB different from ChatGPT or Claude for coding?

Accepted Answer

GenMB is purpose-built for complete app generation, not just code snippets. It provides live preview, database provisioning, Code Healer, Visual Editor, Agent Mode, 50+ integrations, one-click deployment, version history, and subdomain hosting—all integrated. You get a working, deployable full-stack app with a database, not just code to copy and paste.

Question 35

Are GenMB-generated apps good for SEO?

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

The Schema Designer is a visual tool for designing your app's database structure. Define tables, columns, types, and relationships through a drag-and-drop interface. The AI uses your schema to generate type-safe database queries, CRUD operations, and form validation — eliminating manual schema-to-code translation.

Question 44

Can I connect external data sources to my app?

Accepted Answer

Yes. GenMB supports data connectors for Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, and REST APIs. Configure a connector in the Integrations panel, and the AI generates code to read, write, and sync data between your app and the external source. Each connector handles authentication, pagination, and error handling automatically.

Question 45

Does GenMB support vector databases and semantic search?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Vector DB service provides pgvector-backed semantic search with automatic text chunking, embedding generation, and similarity queries. Use it to build RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) applications, semantic search engines, or AI-powered content recommendations. Available on Pro and Business plans.

Question 46

What is Code Healer and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Code Healer is GenMB's automatic error detection and repair system. After every code generation, it validates the output for syntax errors, broken imports, undefined references, and runtime issues. When errors are found, it iteratively analyzes root causes and applies fixes — up to 15 rounds for single-file apps, 25 rounds for multi-file projects. It also runs OWASP security scanning and auto-remediates critical findings.

Question 47

How does GenMB choose which AI model to use?

Accepted Answer

GenMB uses a multi-tier AI provider system. Fast tasks like intent detection and title generation use Gemini Flash for speed. Complex tasks like code generation, refinement, and healing use advanced-tier models (Gemini Pro or GPT). Each model has a 2-deep fallback chain that crosses provider boundaries — if one model fails, the system automatically falls back to an alternative.

Question 48

Can I build an AI chatbot into my generated app?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Enable the AI Chatbot service in the capabilities panel, and GenMB generates a fully functional chat interface with AI responses powered by GenMB's backend. The chatbot SDK handles conversation history, streaming responses, and custom system prompts. Available on all plans.

Question 49

Does GenMB support image and video generation?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Image AI service generates images from text prompts within your app. Video AI (Pro and Business plans) generates short videos using Sora 2. Both services are accessed through SDKs injected into your generated code — no API key management needed on the client side.

Question 50

What security vulnerabilities does GenMB scan for?

Accepted Answer

The security scanner checks for OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities: XSS (cross-site scripting), SQL injection, exposed API keys and secrets, CORS misconfigurations, insecure direct object references, SSRF (server-side request forgery), and more. Scanning runs in ~50ms with no LLM dependency, and findings are auto-remediated through Code Healer.

Question 51

How does GenMB protect my API keys and secrets?

Accepted Answer

API keys configured in the Integrations panel are stored encrypted in Firestore using industry-standard encryption, never exposed in generated client-side code. When your app runs, SDK calls route through GenMB's proxy layer which injects credentials server-side. Your keys never appear in the browser's network tab or source code.

Question 52

What are GenMB Workflows?

Accepted Answer

Workflows are visual automation pipelines that connect triggers (webhooks, schedules, events) to action nodes (AI processing, API calls, data transforms, email). Build them in a drag-and-drop node editor with 10+ node types. Use pre-built templates for common patterns like scheduled reports, AI classification, and data sync.

Question 53

Can workflows run on a schedule?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Schedule Trigger node supports cron-based scheduling — run workflows every minute, hourly, daily, weekly, or with custom cron expressions. Scheduled workflows execute server-side with automatic retry on failure. Available on Pro and Business plans.

Question 54

What is MCP and how does GenMB support it?

Accepted Answer

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard for connecting AI tools to external services. GenMB exposes an MCP server with 7 tools (list apps, get app details, generate code, refine code, etc.) that work with Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible clients. You can also connect external MCP servers to your GenMB apps. Authenticate via API keys with the genmb_sk_ prefix.

Question 55

How do team workspaces work?

Accepted Answer

Workspaces let multiple users collaborate on shared apps. The workspace owner invites members who can view, edit, or manage apps based on their role. All members see the same apps, versions, and deployments. Workspace billing is centralized under the owner's subscription.

Question 56

Does GenMB support SSO (Single Sign-On)?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Business plan includes SSO configuration for your organization's domain. Once configured, all users with your email domain are automatically authenticated and provisioned into your workspace without individual account setup.

Question 57

What are Backend Agents?

Accepted Answer

Backend Agents are server-side AI agents that run in isolated Cloud Run sandboxes. They can execute Python code, call APIs, process data, and respond to webhooks — all without client-side code. Build them by describing the agent's behavior in natural language. GenMB generates the agent code, deploys it, and provides a callback URL for integration.

Question 58

What is the Assistant Widget?

Accepted Answer

The Assistant Widget is an embeddable AI chat interface you can add to any GenMB app. It provides a floating chat button that opens a conversational AI assistant trained on your app's context. Users can ask questions, get help, or trigger actions. Configure the assistant's personality, knowledge base, and capabilities in the Assistants panel.

Question 59

Can GenMB build native mobile apps?

Accepted Answer

GenMB builds Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) that install on iOS and Android home screens, work offline, and feel like native apps. PWAs support push notifications, offline caching, and full-screen display. For truly native iOS/Android apps with hardware access, you would need React Native — GenMB focuses on PWAs which cover most mobile use cases without app store requirements.

Question 60

Do GenMB apps work on mobile devices?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All generated code uses responsive design via Tailwind CSS, so apps automatically adapt to phone, tablet, and desktop screens. With PWA enabled, users can install your app to their home screen for an app-like experience with offline support.

Question 61

Can I sync my GenMB app with GitHub?

Accepted Answer

Question 62

Do I own the code GenMB generates?

Accepted Answer

Yes, 100%. All generated code belongs to you with no licensing restrictions, attribution requirements, or royalty fees. Export it as ZIP, sync to GitHub, or deploy anywhere. Use it for personal projects, client work, or commercial products. There is no vendor lock-in.

Question 63

What is GenMB Code?

Accepted Answer

GenMB Code is an AI-powered coding assistant (Pro feature) that provides precise, file-level edits within your app. Unlike chat refinement which regenerates code, GenMB Code makes targeted modifications — fixing a specific function, updating a component, or adding a feature — with execution plans you can approve or reject before changes are applied.

Question 64

Can I import designs from Figma?

Accepted Answer

Yes. GenMB supports Figma import — paste a Figma frame URL and the AI converts your design into working code. It preserves layout structure, spacing, typography, and colors. Works best with well-organized Figma files using auto-layout. Available on all plans.
