Mainely Code Buildroom—LITE EDITION

If you can dream it, we will help you Build it.

More headroom. Autopilot included in the direction.

More room to grow. More local AI engineering. LITE EDITION is next, with further upgrades following the FREE EDITION model expansion.

What we are announcing

Built to go further.
Worth looking forward to.

LITE is planned for the Microsoft Store before September ends. Its upgrade work follows the expansion of FREE EDITION to 3B, 4B, 7B, and 8B model options.

Exact supported models, final features, hardware requirements, and pricing will be published with the release. Follow the release news here as the next edition takes shape.

You can start now without buying ahead. FREE EDITION is available on the Microsoft Store. Use the current release while the next editions are being prepared.

The mission does not change

“Make state-of-the-art AI accessible, usable, and approachable for Everyone.”

Autopilot across the family

LITE gets code with direction, too.

Autopilot is being brought to FREE, LITE, and ADVANCED. LITE carries the same governed path forward with capabilities and limits matched to its release.

Across every Buildroom edition

Code with direction.

Autopilot is the governed Windows execution layer being brought to FREE, LITE, and ADVANCED. It keeps the visible app, exact action, authorization, and expected result in view before work runs.

Release-specific capability. Autopilot is planned for LITE, but exact Windows controls, model support, hardware requirements, and availability will be published with the LITE release.

The Buildroom family

Three editions. One ambition.

Start free. Grow when you are ready.

Clear answers. No fine-print maze.

A few things
worth knowing.

Does LITE include Buildroom Autopilot?

Autopilot is being brought to all Buildroom editions, including LITE. Exact Windows controls, limits, model support, hardware requirements, and availability are release-specific and will be published with the LITE release.

When are LITE and ADVANCED coming?

LITE and ADVANCED are in active development. Their public availability, final capabilities, hardware requirements, and pricing will be announced only when their respective release qualification is complete. The current Microsoft Store product available today is Buildroom—FREE EDITION 1.8.5.

Can I buy LITE or ADVANCED here now?

No. We are not taking payment or advertising a finished paid edition on this website. Final prices, supported models, hardware requirements, and purchase details will accompany the respective launches.

Will it work on my computer?

Buildroom is a Windows desktop app. Check the current Microsoft Store system requirements before installing. Model performance depends on available memory, processor, graphics hardware, and workload. Supporting an 8B model does not mean every PC can run it comfortably.
