AppifyText.ai v3 is here - Edit your app with AI

Posted by Eugenio on 4 Feb 2026

Dear users,
AppifyText.ai v3 is out: Iterative AI Editing is finally available for everyone.

Until now, with AppifyText.ai you could create a full DaDaBIK web app from a single prompt.
Now you can also refine your app step by step using additional prompts, with the app updating live in seconds.

Want to:
• change fields or modify forms?
• add dashboard elements?
• restyle your app?
• add formulas?
• add simple automations?

Just describe it. The app updates in seconds.
As usual, you can then import the app into your DaDaBIK installation.


 

New CRM Video

To show the full potential of this new release, I’ve published an updated version of the “Create a custom CRM” video, one of the most popular on the channel.

This time, we build the CRM using prompts only. You can watch the video here

Launch on Product Hunt

We’ve also launched AppifyText.ai v3 on Product Hunt

Your upvotes (it takes just one click) to the launch or comments to the post would be incredibly helpful.

As usual for PH launches, your support is crucial in the very first hours because to be featured or become "Product of the Day," we need to gather as many upvotes as possible during launch day.

Thanks in advance for your support and thanks to all the beta testers for their valuable feedback!

You can try AppifyText v3 now here:

Ad maiora!

v13.3 is out - Introducing DaDaBrain AI: query your app data in natural language

Posted by Eugenio on 20 Jan 2026

Dear users,
I am glad to announce DaDaBrain AI, a new DaDaBIK feature that lets your users query your application data using natural language, while keeping full transparency and control.

Your end users can now ask questions like:

“How many sales did we have last month?”
"Who is our top-spending customer in Italy?"
“Which products are not selling at all?”

without knowing SQL and without manually building reports. In plain English, Italian, German, Spanish (and in many other languages).


I've published on YouTube a video where I discuss all the details of the new DaDaBrain AI feature

Watch the video to see DaDaBrain AI in action and understand how it fits into your DaDaBIK applications.

I built the same app in Airtable and Appifytext — here’s what I found

Posted by Eugenio on 13 Nov 2025

Dear users,
I have published a new 20-minute deep-dive video that I think you’ll find interesting.

In the video:
I build the same Client Portal application in both Airtable and AppifyText.ai + DaDaBIK.

Then I compare the two experiences — their strengths, limitations, pricing, and flexibility.

Watch the full comparison here:

You’ll see:

• Why Airtable’s cloud-only model can be limiting for companies with data or security constraints


• How pricing grows quickly as you add users, tables, and records


• How DaDaBIK + AppifyText can give you the same simplicity — with full control and affordable costs (10x cheaper)

I’d love your thoughts — especially on the Cloud vs On-premise debate.

Thanks as always for being part of the DaDaBIK community.

v13.2 is out: iCalendar export and sync with Google Calendar, Apple Calendar & more

Posted by Eugenio on 29 Oct 2025

Dear users,

What’s New in v13.2?

For your calendar views, you now have two additional buttons: "iCal" and "'Generate iCal URL".

iCal Button

The "iCal" button allows you to export your data (events, meetings, ... ) by generating an iCalendar (.ics) file. The generated file can be imported into any calendar application that supports the iCalendar format (e.g., Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, Home Assistant, etc.).

Generate iCal URL button

The "Generate iCal URL" button creates a unique URL that provides the same iCalendar feed but can be subscribed to by external calendar clients. This means that other applications can stay synchronized with the DaDaBIK calendar view (including any filters applied when the URL was generated).

This opens the door to many new use cases and integrations. For example:

1) Managing project timelines in DaDaBIK while keeping your personal calendar automatically updated.

2) Integrating DaDaBIK with home automation systems (e.g., triggering smart actions based on scheduled events).

3) Creating shared event calendars on your own DaDaBIK-powered internal tool for teams or communities

There is a dedicated chapter in the documentation, you can see all the details there.

Demo

If you want to see the "iCal" button in action, you can check our ERP DEMO, in particular the meetings table.

The "Generate iCal URL" feature, instead, is not enabled in the online demo.

This "iCal" export button is available in DaDaBIK Enterprise and Platinum, the "Generate iCal URL" button in the Platinum edition only.

DaDaBIK 13.2 also contain other improvements, changes and fixes (also security-related). As usual, for the complete list, check the change log

You can buy your new license here

You can upgrade your existing license (for free, if you are in your free upgrade period or you have an active subscription) from the upgrade page.
Best,

v13.1 is out: Support for PHP 8.4, new PDF buttons, improved Google auth & more

Posted by Eugenio on 10 Sep 2025

Dear users,
DaDaBIK v13.1 is now available!

This update includes the official support for PHP 8.4 and some additional improvements.

What’s New in v13.1?

PHP 8.4

DaDaBIK now officially support PHP 8.4. To use it, you need ioncube loader v14.4.x (we recommend the latest version, currently v14.4.1).

Improved PDF buttons

It is now possible to assign a specific PDF template (or more than one) to each table/view to use it by default when users click the PDF button, also assigning a specific button label. Further info in the manual, chapter "Assign a specific template to a table/view".

Moreover, if no custom PDF templates are available in the templates folder, the PDF button now immediately generates a PDF using the default template instead of opening the template menu.

Improved Calendar View

The first version of the Calendar view did not handle lookup fields: if, for example, you had an appointments table and for each appointment you stored a lookup id_customer field, the calendar showed the raw id value, now it shows the corresponding linked fields (e.g. first and last name).

Improved Google authentication

Google authentication now identifies users by their Google account ID ("sub") instead of their email address. While Gmail addresses are unique and not reused, Google accounts can also be created with non-Gmail addresses. These external addresses may change or even be reassigned to other users so relying on email alone could therefore cause issues (see the change log for details and contact us before upgrading if you want to migrate existing Google users).

DaDaBIK 13.1 also contain other improvements, changes and fixes (also security-related). As usual, for the complete list, check the change log
