See what users are saying about Dyad across social media and community platforms.

Dyad completely changed the way I build web interfaces. What I love the most is how intuitive and fast it is — it feels like having a design and dev partner that truly understands my ideas.

I built a poker game with Dyad. It worked very well. Will is working very diligently to add enhancements and fix bugs to make Dyad an even better tool. Best of all, it's local. Thank you for creating this application and sharing it with all of us.

Will, youre a genius. This is better than 95% of the other things I have tried, and ive tried them all. going back 25 years haha. youre really on to something here.

I fall into the category of a non-developer who likes to tinker with AI, and this project is amazing. Very well done, and I've already offered to help if I can be of any.

(Translated from French) Honestly I was expecting a bolt.diy... but nothing to do with it, it's so much more user friendly ^^ your project is incredible!!! Thank you

Not a question, not a complain. I just wanted to thank the team that is building dyad, Will Chen et all. You have provided an excellent product that is easy to use and understandable. You also have provided excellent and prompt support for all the problems I have encountered so far. I am very happy to be using your software. Thank You!!!

I'm ready to go all in on Dyad now that my v0 subscription just ended. Definitely planning to grab the Pro version soon. This is hands down the most powerful tool I've ever used, and it's still in its early days. Open source, AI agnostic, runs locally... feels unreal. 🫡

I do use this tool regularly. Although Dyad seems to be in its early stages right now, the open-source nature combined with its attractive design keeps me interested because it allows programmers and designers to express their ideas freely. It's a great tool, thank you, Dyad.

(Translated from Portuguese) Great app, I recommend it better than many paid ones out there.

Why I created Dyad...

Will Chen, Creator of Dyad

"I created Dyad as a free, local, and open-source alternative because I believe builders should feel like true owners—not renters—of their app-building platform. Dyad eliminates artificial limits and provides a fully capable app builder you can use freely from start to finish. Dyad app will always remain free, open-source, and powerful."

- Will Chen, Creator of Dyad
