Ada AI (Beta)

Ada is currently in beta and may not yet be available in your Adalo Builder. We're actively improving her capabilities, and your feedback helps shape what comes next.

Getting Started

Ada is Adalo's built-in AI assistant, designed to help you build and manage your apps faster, right from the Builder. Whether you're adding screens, styling components, or working with data, Ada can handle it through simple, natural language prompts.

Ada lives inside the Adalo Builder in the bottom left corner. To use her, simply click the icon and type what you'd like to do in plain language. No code or technical syntax required. Ada will interpret your request and make changes to your app in real time.

Tips for Getting the Best Results

• Be specific. Include the screen name and component you're referring to (e.g., "Change the title on the Home screen" rather than "Change the title").

• Use natural language. Write prompts the way you'd explain something to a teammate.

• One thing at a time. Ada works best with focused, single-action requests.
