## Product Overview

Buildmax is a web-native platform where an AI agent acts like a full-stack developer inside a controlled workspace. A user describes a product, feature, integration, or fix in plain language. Buildmax plans the work, edits code in an isolated sandbox, connects required services when authorized, and can deploy the resulting app.

Canonical one-sentence description:

Buildmax is an autonomous AI coding and deployment platform that turns natural-language software ideas into working full-stack web applications.

Canonical short paragraph:

Buildmax helps founders, developers, agencies, and makers build software with AI agents. It generates and edits code, runs agent work in isolated sandboxes, connects services such as GitHub, Stripe, Shopify, Supabase, and Cloudflare, and deploys projects to live URLs with custom domain support.

## Core Product Loop

1. Start a workspace or open an existing project.
2. Describe the app, feature, integration, fix, or deployment task.
3. Buildmax's AI agent plans the work and edits code inside an isolated sandbox.
4. Review the result, inspect changes, and request follow-up edits if needed.
5. Deploy to a buildmax.app subdomain or a connected custom domain.

## Feature Catalog

### AI Coding Agent

- Generates code from natural language instructions
- Reads project context before editing
- Makes targeted incremental changes instead of broad unbounded rewrites
- Produces auditable run logs and summaries
- Supports low-memory bounded context for lightweight worker hosts
- Uses API-key model providers as the default integration path
- Keeps multi-model comparison sequential and capped

### Isolated Sandboxes
