v13.5 is out – New User Interface, New Calendar, 5x Faster & more

Posted by Eugenio on 8 Jul 2026

Dear users,
yesterday I launched version 13-5 "Levanto" of our nocode lowcode platform, DaDaBIK. Thank you to everyone who joined us for the live on Youtube!

For those who missed the live streaming, you can catch the replay here.

DaDaBIK v13.5 is now officially available for download, here are some of the new features.

New Graphical User Interface

DaDaBIK v13.5 introduces a new, modern and experimental UI, quite different from the classic DaDaBIK interface. It is disabled by default, so you can decide when to enable it through a configuration setting.

Here is a preview of the new UI:

A much faster engine

DaDaBIK v13.5 introduces a new and much faster version of the internal permission-checking engine, a core component that DaDaBIK runs frequently behind the scenes while users browse and interact with the application.

If your application has a large number of tables and fields, this can significantly improve performance. In some cases, opening a data grid page can be 5x faster.
 

Advanced error handler

DaDaBIK now includes an advanced optional error handling system. You can track errors with detailed context and store or receive them through different channels, including file, database and email notifications.

Here is a preview of the new Error Console:

Improved Calendar view

The Calendar view has been significantly improved. In addition to the existing month grid view, DaDaBIK now supports week, day and list views.

Together with other calendar-related improvements, this makes it much easier to manage more complex scheduling, booking and event-based applications directly inside DaDaBIK.

Here is a preview of the week view:



And these are just some of the new features included in DaDaBIK v13.5.

DaDaBIK 13.5 also includes additional improvements, changes and bug fixes. For the complete list, see the change log

Turn Messy Excel files into Web Apps in 1 Click (Brand New AppifyText.ai Feature)

Posted by Eugenio on 12 May 2026

Dear users,
AppifyText.ai, the AI agent that creates DaDaBIK applications, now has a brand new feature: you can transform an Excel file into a Web application (DaDaBIK) in one click.



I’ve just published a YouTube video where I show how to convert an inventory management Excel file into a complete Web application.

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.
