FAQ - Anything
Building
How do I create a new page, component, or element?
Ask the agent for it. Say something like “add a settings page” and it creates it automatically.
How do I add AI to my app?
Describe what you need. For example: “Let users enter a health goal and have AI review it.” The agent handles the rest.
Can I add databases?
Yes. Ask for any feature that needs data storage and the agent builds it. You can also ask for additional databases. Learn more about databases.
How do I connect to an external API?
How do I add user accounts to my app?
Use the built-in User Accounts feature. Just say “add sign up and login.”
Can I build apps from my phone?
Yes. Connect your phone number in Settings on your dashboard and Anything gives you a number to text. Describe what you want and the agent builds it. Requires a Pro plan or higher. See Text to build.
What language does Anything write in?
React and Next.js (JavaScript). You don’t need to know this to use Anything, but it’s useful if you want to export or customize code.
Can I export the code?
Yes. Go to the Code tab and click Download to get the full project.
AI models
Which AI models does Anything use?
A mixture of models from Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI (GPT), Google (Gemini), Moonshot (Kimi), and open source. Different tasks, modes, and steps use different models to get the best result. You can override the default with the model switcher.
Do I own the code Anything generates?
Yes. You own all the code and content generated in your projects. See our Terms of Service for details.
Hosting and publishing
Can I host my app on Anything?
Yes. Most users host on Anything. Click Publish in the top right to go live. Your app scales automatically. Contact us about Business or Enterprise plans if you need more.
How do I publish to iOS or Android?
Both are available. See the mobile apps guide to get started.
How do I verify my Apple Developer Account?
Follow our step-by-step guide to check that your account is active and ready.
Payments
How do I collect payments?
Anything integrates with Stripe for web apps and RevenueCat for mobile apps. Say “add a $20/month subscription with Stripe” and the agent sets it up.
Can I accept crypto payments?
Yes. Stripe supports stablecoin payments for subscriptions, with over 400 compatible wallets. You can also pay for your Anything subscription with crypto.
Plans and account
What's the difference between Pro and Max?
Building requires a paid plan. Pro ($19+/mo) gives you monthly credits, private projects, custom domains, and payments. Max ($199+/mo) adds autonomous agents that test and fix your app in a real browser. See plans for details.
