There’s a new kid on the block that’s doing something pretty audacious. [Spawned](https://spawned.com) launched on [Product Hunt today](https://www.producthunt.com/products/spawned) and it’s already sitting at 4.7 stars with nearly a hundred reviews. That kind of traction on day one doesn’t happen by accident, so I had to check it out.
The pitch is simple but bold: describe what you want to build in plain English, and Spawned’s AI builder (powered by Claude Opus under the hood) generates a production-ready web app in minutes. Not a wireframe, not a prototype — an actual deployable product with 70+ component types, professional design packs, and no placeholder junk. You can even import from GitHub, Figma, or a URL to get started. The free tier gives you 100 AI prompts without needing a credit card, which is enough to actually test whether this thing delivers.
But here’s where it gets interesting. Spawned isn’t just a builder. The moment you hit publish, your project goes live on their built-in explore page — complete with upvotes, comments, trending rankings, and daily leaderboards. It’s basically a discovery platform baked right into the dev tool. The team’s reasoning makes sense too: founders spend weeks building something, get a brief spike of launch-day traffic, then watch 90% of it disappear because distribution was never part of the plan. Spawned tries to solve that by merging the build and launch phases into one workflow.
And then there’s the crypto angle. You can optionally attach a Solana token to your project on a bonding curve, letting early supporters buy in cheap and ride the growth. Builders earn 0.30% on every trade. It’s not mandatory — you can totally ignore the token stuff and just use it as a builder plus launchpad — but for those who want to experiment with community-driven funding, it’s right there.
The tagline says it all: “Build like Lovable. Launch like Product Hunt. Grow like nothing else.” Whether Spawned can actually pull off that triple threat remains to be seen, but the early reception is hard to ignore. If you’re the type who’s always got three side projects half-finished, this might be worth a spin. You can follow their updates on [X @spawnedcom](https://x.com/spawnedcom) or just head to [spawned.com](https://spawned.com) and start building.
