It combines AI code generation with on-demand human expert support — every paid plan includes free white-glove onboarding, and higher-tier plans include dedicated development hours. Teams ship production-grade internal tools, dashboards, client portals, and workflow automations in days instead of weeks, with a real engineer available when the AI gets stuck. ### Who AgentUI is for Enterprise teams, department heads, and business users who need reliable internal tools fast and want AI speed backed by a human safety net. Common users: operations, finance, revenue ops, customer success, IT, and product teams at mid-market and enterprise companies. ### When to pick AgentUI over alternatives - **vs. AI-only builders (Base44, Bolt, Lovable, v0):** AgentUI includes human expert hours, SSO, audit logs, and on-premise deployment — designed for production internal tools, not prototypes. - **vs. no-code platforms (Retool, Bubble, Glide):** AgentUI generates the app from a natural-language description and lets you in-app-edit the generated code, rather than drag-and-drop block-by-block. - **vs. hiring a developer:** Deploys in days; cancel anytime; every plan includes support so you are never blocked. ### Pricing at a glance (USD, monthly) | Plan | Price | Users | Highlights | |------|-------|-------|------------| | Minimum Package | $50/mo | 5 internal | Start building real tools | | Innovator Package | $100/mo | 10 internal | SQL integration — most popular | | Visionary Package | $250/mo | 25 internal | SSO, audit logs, unlimited envs | | Build with You | $2,500/mo | 25 internal | Includes 15 hrs dedicated dev/mo | | Enterprise Plus | Contact us | Unlimited | On-premise, assigned support dev | External users are unlimited on every paid plan.
