You’ve built something impressive with AI tools like Lovable or Bolt, or you have a strong idea — but turning it into a reliable product that can handle real users, growth, and complexity feels overwhelming.
Prototypes that worked perfectly in the demo suddenly break under real traffic. Technical debt and messy code slow you down. Cloud and AI token costs quickly spiral out of control. Security and compliance risks keep you up at night. And you constantly feel stuck between the desire to move fast and the need for things to actually work properly.
You don’t want to hire a full engineering team yet, but you also don’t want your vision to stall.
Hal9 builds and scales AI products with trusted AI experts and cost-effective AI agents
Talk with us to import your vibe-coded demo or click build to let our AIs generate your demo. They’ll narrow the scope to focus on the core experience, break your product down into clear stages, propose the best technology stack, and build the frontend. All for free.
Use credits to create or scale your AI product. Credits can be used to build with AI agents or AI experts, and to run your demo using AI compute, AI storage, and AI tokens — with support for all major LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, and more).
As your startup grows, scale with us. Purchase additional credits as needed, or enroll in our plans . Our plans have helped dozens of founders successfully scale their products and are the best option for serious startup teams.
Our AI platform builds powerful AI products: anything from chatbots and agents to API services powering AI-first websites, mobile apps, and extensions. Our experts can drive the process by writing Python code and guide model-agnostic AI agents to write code themselves. We ensure privacy, security and reliability by running each product in its own isolated Kubernetes pod.
Create AI solutions from prompts, craft the right prompts with us, and watch your first demo come to life in seconds.
Our platform can run in any cloud or on your own data centers, and your content can run securely in isolated runtimes powered by Kubernetes.
Large Language Models are evolving rapidly, and we support all of them with proper token management and auditing.
Building complex solutions requires changing code, which is why everything we do is powered by Python code and the best open-source libraries.
Hal9 can create automated workflows leveraging AI where it provides the most value. We've developed agents exposed as APIs that generate advanced reports, audits, and file processing. For example, our case studies with Propio and Greenny explain how Hal9 can automate financial reporting and carbon footprint audits that are performed in seconds and not weeks.
Hal9 can create websites which leverage AI for: content, backoffice processes, recommendations, and so much more. Every existing or new website can use an AI redesign. For example, you can try the Hal9 Roadmap Generator which uses AI built by the Hal9 Platform to deliver an AI roadmap even before we start working together.
Hal9 can create mobile applications that fully leverage AI. It can use AI to access all the hardware sensors from your phone to provide new mobile experiences. For example, Zoo Mobile Guide is a mobile app designed to be used in specific venues, and leverage your location and voice to provide personalized guided experiences.
Hal9 can create AI APIs that interact with other software products. An example of this is the Reply Chrome Extension that delivers fast, AI-crafted replies to social media messages. Powered by Hal9 Platform, which provides a robust API to the custom-built Chrome Extension.
Thirteen named founders shipped AI products with Hal9 in under 30 days. See the consistent pattern — what scope discipline, hybrid builds, and full IP ownership look like in practice.
Michael Seibel's MVP advice is perfect for SaaS but needs one critical addition for AI. Learn the AI MVP validation framework that saves founders $200K+ in rebuilds.
Why your AI prototype built with Lovable or Replit isn't 90% done. The difference between a prototype and a product is the backend.
Every founder building an AI product is choosing among four paths. Here is the honest framework for picking the right one — with structural fits and failure modes for each.
Most AI startups don't fail because the tech doesn't work — they fail because the economics don't. Learn the four paths founders have and why the $2K/month model changes the math.
The phrase 'autonomous AI platform' is overused. Here is what it specifically means at Hal9 — and why the architecture is the reason founders get to $2,000/month instead of $200,000.
The three roadmap mistakes that kill AI MVPs — and the three-step framework Hal9 uses with every founder to get scope right in week one. Includes a link to the free Hal9 Roadmap Generator.
Serious startups budget $2K / month and beyond. Includes everything you’ll need: compute, tokens, storage, website embedding, API support, consulting hours to launch your solution, and autonomous AI processes that lower development costs.
How do I know this will actually work?
Dozens of founders are already scaling their products with Hal9. Plus, you can cancel any month directly from our website. If you’re not satisfied for any reason, we’ll refund your most recent payment.
How can this be so price competitive?
Hal9 is building fully autonomous AI development to handle design, building, iteration, hosting, and scaling. Our goal is for experts to only guide the AI, not code it from scratch. This approach slashes human hours and development time, delivering high-quality, reliable, and scalable AI solutions at a fraction of traditional costs.
