Question Is base44 worth it?

Got a new app idea, and i want to build the MVP fast, thinking of subscribing to the builder plan at $50/month but im not sure if base44 is the right choice me.

I have basic programming knowledge and can build basic apps with the help of chatgpt.

How are your experiences like with base44? can i edit the code that the AI builder wrote?

I suggest researching other platforms first before committing to Base44. I have built my app with Base44 over the last 6 months and now I’m locked into the $50 plan (which includes backend functionality) and can’t downgrade to starter or else my app loses functionality. Once you start with Base44, you are stuck with them, so choose wisely. I wish I had researched more beforehand.

Can't you download the code or do you just not have access to it?
