Real questions from real people (and our answers that hopefully don’t put you to sleep).
Getting Started
Do I need to know how to code?
Do I need to know how to code?
Nope! That’s the whole point. If you can describe what you want in plain English (or broken English, we don’t judge), you can build an app.
How fast can I build an app?
How fast can I build an app?
Most apps take 2–5 minutes. More complex ones with lots of integrations may take up to 10. Still faster than figuring out a traditional tool.
Can I change my app after it's built?
Can I change my app after it's built?
Absolutely. Just tell CREAO what you want to change:
“Make the buttons blue” ✅
“Add a search bar” ✅
“Make it look like Instagram but for cats” ✅
“Make the buttons blue” ✅
“Add a search bar” ✅
“Make it look like Instagram but for cats” ✅
Is my data secure?
Is my data secure?
Yes. We use bank-level encryption, automatic backups, and all the security best practices. Much safer than that spreadsheet called
PASSWORDS_FINAL_v2_REAL.xlsx.How is CREAO different from Bubble or Webflow?
How is CREAO different from Bubble or Webflow?
Other tools are like IKEA—you still have to assemble everything yourself. CREAO is like having a personal builder who makes exactly what you describe. No missing screws, no leftover parts.
How It Works
Where does my app live?
Where does my app live?
In the cloud. We handle all the hosting on enterprise-grade infrastructure. Your app gets a URL instantly and can scale from 1 to 1 million users.
Can I download my app's code?
Can I download my app's code?
Yes. Pro users can export everything—code, database structure, and more. You own your app.
What happens to my data?
What happens to my data?
Your data = your data. We don’t look at it, sell it, or train our AI on it. It’s encrypted, backed up, and only accessible to you.
Can I use my own domain?
Can I use my own domain?
Custom domains are coming soon. For now, your apps use our subdomain.
Do my apps work on phones?
Do my apps work on phones?
Yep. Every app is responsive by default—no extra work required.
Integrations
Do I need accounts for integrations?
Do I need accounts for integrations?
Yes, but you’ll just use your existing ones (Gmail, Slack, etc.). No new accounts needed.
Is connecting to other services secure?
Is connecting to other services secure?
Very. We use OAuth, the same standard used by “Sign in with Google.” Your passwords never touch our servers.
Can I add or remove integrations later?
Can I add or remove integrations later?
Yes. Add them anytime with a quick prompt, or disconnect in one click.
What if the service I need isn’t listed?
What if the service I need isn’t listed?
Pro users can connect to any API. If it has an API, CREAO can talk to it. And we’re always adding new integrations—let us know what you need.
Plans & Credits
When do my credits reset?
When do my credits reset?
Every month on your billing date. Just like a subscription service.
What uses credits?
What uses credits?
Building new apps and major changes use credits. Testing and using your apps are free.
What happens if I run out of credits?
What happens if I run out of credits?
Your existing apps keep working. You just can’t build new ones until credits refresh or you upgrade.
Can I downgrade or cancel?
Can I downgrade or cancel?
Anytime. No contracts, no hidden strings. Your apps keep running even on the free plan.
Is the free plan actually useful?
Is the free plan actually useful?
Yes. You can build real apps with real integrations. The only limit is how many you can build per month.
