9 October was all about building things with AI. In this batch: six AI website and app builders, design and inspiration tools, a set of open-source skills and templates for coding agents, two video resources and a cross-platform proxy client. Features and pricing change, so check each tool's own page before you commit.

AI builders for websites and apps

Readdy builds working websites from a description, and you can chat or click any element to edit it. It comes with a backend for real functions, templates, SEO and AI search tools, hosting and code ownership, plus white-label options for agencies. Wegic also works through chat, designing and building portfolios, landing pages, shop and community pages, with templates and hosting included. Durable is made for service businesses. It creates a website with AI in about 30 seconds and throws in SEO tools, a simple CRM and AI marketing tools. All three are free to start, but more advanced use and custom domains need paid plans.

Same.new and Anything go further, into apps. Same.new's agent writes the code for a website or web app, runs it and keeps a project history, so you can roll back changes before you deploy. Anything builds mobile apps, websites and internal tools in real code, and you can add AI models and 40+ integrations. Both are free to start with usage limits, and the code they generate still needs testing and review before real use. 10Web is a different beast. It generates WordPress sites and online stores and hosts them on managed WordPress hosting, with white-label builders and an API for agencies. It's a paid service, and WordPress comes with its own upkeep.

Design tools and inspiration

UX Pilot turns a prompt, a sketch, screenshots, PDFs or a PRD into wireframes and polished UI screens. You get several looks to compare and can export to Figma or code. It runs on credits, and the small free allowance goes fast. Refs.Gallery is a free, hand-picked gallery of more than 2,200 real websites, updated weekly and browsable by style or type. It's for inspiration only, not templates. Heroicons Animated is a free, MIT-licensed set of 316 animated Heroicons for React, which you add with the shadcn CLI or copy directly.

Taste Skill is a free, open-source set of skill files that teaches coding agents like Cursor, Claude Code and Codex better design taste, so the interfaces they produce look less generic. termcn takes the shadcn approach to the terminal: free, open-source terminal UI components for React command-line apps built on Ink and OpenTUI, with tables, charts, spinners and lots of colour themes.

Skills and templates for your coding agents

App Store Screenshots Generator is a free, open-source skill that scaffolds a Next.js screenshot editor with device frames, 18 visual styles and a library of headline copy. It exports every size the App Store, Mac App Store and Google Play ask for. You still have to capture the app screenshots yourself. img2threejs rebuilds an object from one reference image as a code-only Three.js model, with no mesh files. The results are approximations, not exact scans.

Ix parses a repository into a local graph of symbols, calls and imports. That way you, and agents like Claude Code and Codex, can ask what a piece of code touches and what breaks if it changes, through commands or MCP. OpenDots by CopilotKit is an open-source template for persistent AI agents that work across text, calls and Slack, with approval steps before sensitive actions. It's an early-stage, self-hosted template that needs CopilotKit Intelligence, so it's better suited to developers than to anyone wanting a ready-made assistant.

Video tools

Shotreel turns screenshots, images or short clips into smooth, looping showcase videos from 70 motion templates. It runs in your browser, so your files aren't uploaded. Templates and 720p export are free with no watermark, HD and 4K export need Pro, and exporting needs a free account. Awesome Seedance is a free, open-source collection of Seedance 2.0 video prompts grouped by style, most of them shown with the clip they produced. It's only useful if you have access to Seedance 2.0, and it includes sponsored links to paid API services.

A network tool

ProxyBridge is a free, open-source proxy client for Windows, macOS and Linux. It sends the apps you choose through an HTTP or SOCKS5 proxy, or blocks them from the network, and comes with a GUI and a CLI. It needs admin rights and system-level network access. Fake download sites have been reported, so only download it from its GitHub page or official site.
