Description
Most AI builds break around feature four because nothing ever defined the product. Codalio starts there. Describe your idea in plain English and it writes a validated PRD and spec: user flows, data model, user stories and acceptance criteria. It then generates code against that spec, writes the tests from the same criteria, and traces every change back to a requirement before the merge. Codalio Cloud takes you 95–98% of the way to production grade. Start with a free PRD.

Could you build this?
Partial The front-end and prompt chaining to generate PRDs are vibe-codeable, but creating an automated factory that outputs validated, compiling, and fully tested multi-file code requires a robust execution sandbox and agentic feedback loops.
What it would actually take: Architecture requires an orchestration engine (LangGraph or custom state machine) coupled with containerized sandboxes (e.g., Docker, Firecracker, or E2B) to run linters, compilers, and test suites. The hard part is building deterministic AST parsing, self-healing code generation loops that resolve test failures iteratively, and context-window management across large software specifications.

Same idea, different domain
