Cloud coding agent that turns a plain-language change request into a tested pull request on your GitHub repository.

## Overview

Buildful is a hosted coding agent for students, freelancers, founders and small teams. You describe a change in plain words, and it returns a tested pull request on your GitHub repository; UI changes are tested in a real browser and recorded.

Tasks can also come in from Slack and Linear. Each task is routed to an open-weight model to keep costs low. Buildful was formerly called FactoryKit.

New users get 3 free tasks. Pro costs $10 a month for 1,000 tasks, and Team costs $40 a month for 3,000 tasks.

**Who it is for:** Students, freelancers, founders and small teams.
