Hey Product Hunt! This is Kevin, one of the co-founders of Orchids 👋
Today we're excited to introduce Orchids, the first AI Full Stack Engineer.
Orchids sets state-of-the-art on UI and full stack capability, having ranked #1 on UI Bench and Design Arena - beating Devin, Lovable, Cursor, Bolt, Replit, and v0.
Orchids is capable of implementing frontend, backend, database, auth, and payments out of the box with absolutely no third party integrations required.
We truly believe this is the next step forward in helping anyone build software and look forward to seeing what you make :)

@kevinlu12 I’m a paid user. I have been trying to publish my app and I keep getting these errors, that it seems orchid can’t fix. When I comment it fix, the same error occurs. While Orchid is telling me it’s “fixed”. Is there a support email? Or how can talk with someone
If it builds an app would it be able to do both iOS and Android versions? How easy would it be to manage?
Congratulations on the launch! I’m curious - what is truly unique about Orchids? There are already hundreds of full-stack AI coding platforms like Emergent, Lovable, Bolt V2, and many others that offer end-to-end coding assistants. Many of these already have even AI Agents offering super powers. So then, what sets Orchids apart in a meaningful way?
Also, Curious about the 'better on all benchmarks' statement. Benchmarks can be biased if only certain tasks or scenarios are chosen. How were the tests conducted, and how do they compare across a full spectrum of real-world coding tasks?
Orchids sounds incredible—an AI full stack engineer that can build apps and websites just through chat feels like the future of development. Do you plan to support custom integrations with existing dev tools or frameworks?
I've been using Orchids for a month now, special thanks to the free credits! I'm building really cool web apps, and it' really easy to use and much more efficient than other web-based vibe coding tools. But it sometimes lacks when I give it to make enterprise-level apps. But still better. I'll give it a solid 7.5/10.
How is your product different from Emergent and Lovable?
Tried Orchids a few days ago, am actually quite impressed with it. Helped me prototype a new UX to show the team in the span of a day.
I have a website which included MySQL databases. Does Orchid support that? Thanks.
I'm impressed I tried the same prompt I gave cursor and spent hours tweaking last week and this product did a better job at first try!
Super cool, congrats. I tried it once before and encountered a few bugs, but I’ll definitely give it another go and compare it to Lovable again! 🤙
Congrats on the launch! Can Orchids generate and deploy directly, or does it just output code?
Testing it now - curious to know how does it compare to @Lovable ?
I'm sure some will disagree, but lovely background music on the launch video! All the best on the launch. I'll tinker with the product shortly 🔥
Love seeing tools that aim to go beyond chat and actually build production apps. Congrats on shipping!

Who hunted Orchids?
Orchids was hunted by Kevin Lu. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it.
