Documentation
Everything you need to scope an idea, design it, build a full stack app, and get matched with Elite Tech talent.
Not sure where to start? Ask about anything in these docs and get a direct answer.
Afren turns an idea into working software and connects you with Elite Tech talent to take it further. You describe what you want; our AI scopes it, designs it, builds a full stack app, and gives you a live preview you can share the same day.
These docs cover both sides of Afren: founders and teams who build and hire, and talent who get verified, matched, and paid. Use the menu on the left to jump to what you need, or ask the assistant above.
Sign up
Choose to join as a founder or as talent. You can sign in with Google or GitHub, or with an email and password.
Verify your email
Confirm your address so we can keep your projects, matches, and payouts secure.
Set up your profile
Founders add a company and what they want to build. Talent add skills, experience, and availability so we can match you well.
Start on the home page by describing your idea in plain language.
Describe the idea
Write what you want to build. A sentence is enough to start; more detail gives a sharper scope.
Review the scope
Afren returns a structured plan: the product summary, core features, the pages you need, and the skills the build calls for.
Adjust and confirm
Tweak anything that is off, then confirm. The scope becomes the shared brief for the design, the build, and any talent you hire.
Every scope maps to the skills it needs, so we can suggest the right people.
From your confirmed scope, Afren surfaces vetted Elite Tech talent whose skills fit the work. You can review profiles, see verification status, and reach out to the people you want on the project.
You are never locked in. Build the first version with AI, then bring in talent to extend, harden, or take ownership when you are ready.
Turn the scope into real screens before a line of code is written.
Generate designs
Pick a brand colour or let the AI choose, then generate Figma style screens with component specs for each page in your scope.
Play the prototype
Open the interactive prototype and click through your screens like a real app. Buttons and links move between screens so you can feel the flow early.
Iterate
Regenerate with new preferences until the direction is right. The approved designs feed straight into the build.
Afren writes the frontend and backend, then verifies the build for you.
Choose your stack
Select a frontend and backend from the supported stacks, then generate. Afren produces the full project, file by file.
Automatic verification
The build runs in a sandbox that compiles the code, fixes errors, and rebuilds until it is green, so you get a working app, not a draft.
Open the live preview
The preview goes live the moment the app builds. It runs on realistic sample data, so it works even before the backend is wired to real services.
Change anything by describing it in words.
Every build gives you a live preview link and the full source. To make a change, tell Afren what you want in plain language, for example make the hero dark or add a settings page. The edit runs through the same verify loop and refreshes the preview.
Download the complete project as a zip at any time and take it anywhere.
Ship the app to your own cloud when you are ready.
Connect your account
Deployment uses your own AWS and GitHub credentials, so you keep full ownership of the code and the infrastructure.
Deploy
Afren pushes the code to GitHub and deploys it, then gives you the live URL and the region it runs in.
Create a talent profile
Add your skills, experience, and availability. This is what founders see and what we match against.
Verify your identity
Afren uses AI assisted checks on your ID and CV so founders can trust who they are hiring. Verification is quick and keeps the network high trust.
When a founder confirms a scope, Afren matches it to talent whose skills fit. If you match, the brief can reach you directly. Keep your skills and availability current to get the most relevant work.
Some roles include a short AI led pre interview so founders can move fast with confidence. It is a focused conversation about your experience; the transcript and evaluation help you stand out for the right briefs.
Build
Collaborate with the founder on the project you were matched to, using the scope and designs as the shared source of truth.
Wallet and payouts
Track what you earn in your Afren wallet and get paid for the work you deliver.
Do I own the code?
Yes. You can download the full project at any time and deploy it to your own AWS account with your own credentials.
Do I have to hire talent?
No. You can build entirely with AI. Talent is there when you want people to extend or own the work.
What if the build has an error?
The sandbox verify loop fixes build errors automatically and only hands you a version that compiles.
