Vybe raises $10M to make vibe-coding work within companies
Look inside every fast-growing company, and you'll see internal operations glued together with rigid SaaS, old school spreadsheets, and manual hacks. From admin consoles to onboarding workflows, and performance reviews to content calendars, these fragile tools slow teams down, break easily, and are hard to evolve. Meanwhile, engineering teams are stretched thin, so building or maintaining internal tools never makes it to the top of the backlog.
Vibe-coding is changing the game: using natural language and AI to build software has emerged as a powerful new way to create software faster, even by non-developers. But so far, vibe-coding has mostly proven useful for prototyping, landing pages, or small games. It falls short when you want to build secure, data-connected, team-ready apps that can actually run your business processes. We built Vybe to change that.
Now you can vibe-code secure, connected internal apps
Vybe lets anyone inside a company build secure internal apps connected to their real data — no engineering time required.
The simplicity of ChatGPT: Describe what you want in natural language, and Vybe generates real production-grade software.
Data-connected: Securely hook into Postgres, Salesforce, Jira, Redshift, MySQL, and many more.
Team-ready: Auth, roles, and deployments are all baked in from the start.
Secure: Our security layer is not vibe-coded and can't be modified by AI.
Templates: Remix apps based on the best practices of top operators.
The result is that operations teams, PMs, RevOps, HR, and other non-technical builders can finally ship the tools they need — securely, collaboratively, and without waiting in line.
Over the last few months, we've been in closed waitlist mode with over 1,000 sign-ups and hand-onboarded over a dozen teams to pressure-test Vybe on real, production-grade apps:
-
One CEO told us that running his whole customer success operation through Vybe is saving him ~2 days/week.
-
Another ingested millions of rows from their warehouse to build BI-like internal views, something that would've broken typical vibe-coding platforms.
-
A company replaced their BI tool (Metabase and Looker) altogether with Vybe. They plugged their redshift data warehouse and just started prompting to see important charts like MAU, DAU, drop-off funnel etc.
Today we're opening sign-ups. No more waitlist.
Remix apps from world-class operators
We're also launching a first set of remixable templates co-created with operators, so teams can start with real-world best practices:
-
Lenny Rachitsky’s 3‑Step Performance Review System by Lenny Rachitsky — A comprehensive framework that turns performance reviews into structured, high‑impact conversations that synthesize data, narrative and clear growth goals.
-
Mathilde Collin’s 3‑Tiered One‑on‑One Framework by Mathilde Collin — Structures one‑on‑ones into weekly, monthly and bi‑annual cadences to tackle tactical blockers, employee happiness and career development in a disciplined way.
-
Social Listening & Feedback Triage System by Vincent Nallatamby — Converts unstructured social feedback into a triage workflow and prioritizes items based on engagement signals, so product teams can close loops quickly.
-
The 7Cs Framework for Build vs. Buy Decisions by Sue Nallapeta — A rational framework that strips ego from software acquisition by scoring build‑vs‑buy choices across dimensions like core capability, cost, complexity, competence and cohesion.
-
Centralized Customer Feedback Hub by Jonathan Parisot — Unifies support tickets, emails, reviews, surveys and interviews into a single pane, enabling leaders to correlate issues with sentiment and prioritize roadmaps using multi‑source validation.

Our belief is that in the next decade, most internal software will be vibe-coded by teams working with AI: engineers and operators together. Vybe is built for that collaboration. Long term, we aim to make personal software a reality by allowing anyone to generate their dream custom app.
Thank you to our early customers, team-members and investors for believing in us.
