About More Magpie
MoreMagpie is an AI-powered discovery and build-planning companion for non-tech founders. Describe what you want to build in plain English and discover software, frameworks, hardware and specialist techniques you didn't know existed. Explore different approaches, compare costs and limitations, and understand how technologies work together, all without confusing jargon. Then get a practical build-ready plan for Codex, Claude, Lovable or your preferred AI coding assistant.
A NOTE FROM THE FOUNDER
I started building MoreMagpie because I kept running into the same problem every time I built something with AI. I'm not a developer. I don't have a coding background. I'm just someone with a ridiculous number of ideas who discovered that tools like Codex and Claude could actually help me bring them to life. And honestly, that's been incredible. But I quickly realised there's a massive difference between being able to build something and actually understanding how to build it. I'd describe an idea, AI would start throwing technical terms, frameworks and libraries at me, and half the time I'd have absolutely no clue what any of it meant. I'd approve things, hope for the best and end up with something that worked. Then I'd see someone else building something similar, only theirs looked better, felt smoother or did things I hadn't even considered possible. And I'd think, how the hell have they done that? Was it a different framework? Some specialist software? An animation library? A technique I'd never heard of? The problem was, **I didn't even know what to search for, let alone what to ask my AI coding assistant.** That's where MoreMagpie came from. I wanted to create something for people like me. Non-technical founders, creators and everyday people who have the ideas and now have the ability to build them, but don't necessarily understand the huge world of technology available to them. Something where you can describe what you're trying to achieve in plain English, discover software, tools, techniques and approaches you didn't know existed, understand what actually works together and make better decisions about your build. Not another AI coding assistant. A companion that helps you get more out of the one you're already using. And importantly, I want it to explain everything without making you feel like you need a computer science degree to understand it. I'm building MoreMagpie because I genuinely need it myself. And I reckon there are a lot of other
