Knack Builder Season

The apps that run your year start now.

Every year around this time, teams stop planning and start building. Internal tools. Customer portals. Workflows that finally replace the spreadsheets.

To celebrate, we’re launching the Builder Season Challenge. Build something with Knack. Show us what you created.
The best apps win cash prizes and a featured spotlight.

Prizes up to $1,000.

Build your app in minutes — not months

Getting started with Knack is fast, flexible, and completely code-free. Whether you have a fully formed idea or just a starting point, you can go from concept to a working app in minutes.

Three simple ways to start building:

Start with AI
Describe what you want to build, and we’ll generate your app — including database structure, workflows, and pages.

Start from a template
Choose from proven use cases like portals, CRMs, intake workflows, and internal tools — then customize to fit your needs.

Start from scratch
Prefer full control? Begin with a blank app and build exactly what you need from the ground up.

14-day free trial — no credit card required

The Builder Season $1k Challenge

Think you’ve built something great?

Enter the Builder Season Challenge and show us what you’ve created. We’re looking for apps that are practical, creative, impactful, cleverly built, or just plain fun.

First place wins $1,000, $500 for second and $250 for third

Your app could solve a real operational problem, power a team workflow, manage customers, or even be a personal productivity tool. There’s no single “right” type of build. If you built it, we want to see it.

The Shift from Planning to Execution

This is when teams realize they need systems, not workarounds

Builder Season is when ideas stop living in spreadsheets—and start running real workflows.
But what’s next? And how do you go from Idea to App? Check out our guide to help you start gaining momentum: “From Idea to Live App in 30 Days – the typical roadmap for building”
