"No-code" platforms have expanded software development capabilities to a broader audience. With Vision App Maker, teams already design data models, interfaces, and complete business processes in a visual studio — no compiling, no configuration files, no source code. The next leap is not just a faster studio. It is a different way of working: describing what you want in plain language and letting an AI co-pilot help you configure it.

Vision App Maker now includes a conversational AI co-pilot, built directly into the integrated administration and configuration studio. It is not a chatbot bolted onto the side of the product — it is an assistant embedded where the work happens, designed to help a configurator turn intent into a working application.

From idea to a working application

It is tempting to think of an AI assistant as a tool for one narrow task. The ambition here is broader. The co-pilot is meant to support the configuration of an entire application, across the building blocks a configurator works with every day:

• The data model — the entities, fields, and types that describe your domain.
• The interfaces — the views and screens users interact with.
• The processes — the workflows and the steps that move work forward.
• The business rules — the logic, conditions, and validations that make the application behave correctly.

You describe a requirement the way you would explain it to a colleague, and the co-pilot helps you shape the corresponding configuration — from a rule on a single field to the logic that ties a whole process together. The configurator stays in the flow of expressing intent, instead of translating that intent, by hand, into technical detail.

Context-aware, grounded in your platform

What makes the co-pilot genuinely useful is that it understands what you are configuring. It reads the configuration of the functionality in front of you — the entities, fields, types, and services already defined — so its suggestions fit your actual application, not a generic template.

On top of that, it uses semantic search across the existing corpus of configuration and rules, surfacing relevant patterns that you or your colleagues have already built. Instead of starting from a blank page, you start from the collective knowledge already inside your platform.

Validated before it reaches you

AI suggestions are only helpful if you can trust them. Before a proposal is ever shown to the configurator, it is validated syntactically and checked for dependencies against the execution engine. In other words, the co-pilot does not just generate plausible-looking text — it proposes configuration the engine can actually understand and run.

A conversation, with you in control

The interaction is conversational by design. The co-pilot asks clarifying questions, shows intermediate steps, and presents the result as a highlighted fragment you can review. Crucially, nothing is written automatically: the proposal is yours to accept and take into the configuration. The human decides; the AI assists.

Access is secured as well — available only to authenticated users, on a per-session basis — so this capability sits safely inside your governance model.

AI everywhere, on your own infrastructure

The co-pilot is one expression of a broader principle: AI is available across the entire platform, not isolated in a single feature. AI capabilities can be configured from the integrated administration and configuration component and used where work actually happens — inside interfaces, inside the studio configuration experience, and inside workflows, at any step of a process.

Why it matters

The result is a shorter path from idea to working application. Configurators move faster, make fewer errors, and lean on validated, context-aware suggestions instead of memorizing technical syntax. Expertise becomes more accessible without giving up oversight — because every proposal is reviewed by a person before it goes live.

"No-code" opened the door. The AI co-pilot walks you through it — one conversation at a time.
