Noloco is a platform for building web and mobile apps, with a built-in database, user authentication, API integrations, and mobile publishing. It supports web, Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. The Free plan costs nothing and includes unlimited team seats, 50 active clients, 2,000 records, and 30 AI credits per month. Build is listed at $79 a month, billed monthly, with 10 team seats, 1,000 active clients, 25,000 records, and 250 AI credits per month. Enterprise has no listed price and includes unlimited records and custom team and client seats. Noloco’s pricing note also says paid access starts at $65/mo on an annual basis and mentions a 14-day trial; the listed Build plan is billed monthly. Noloco is made by a company founded in 2021 and headquartered in Dublin, Ireland.

Noloco combines app-building tools with a built-in database and mobile publishing across five platforms. Its free plan has defined client, record, and AI-credit limits, while paid options include monthly Build pricing and an unpriced Enterprise plan.

Noloco suits teams looking to build web or mobile apps with database, authentication, and API capabilities. Its free tier may suit those starting with up to 50 active clients and 2,000 records.

Overview

Noloco is a no-code app builder with a database, authentication, API integrations and mobile publishing. It is a strong fit for teams making internal or client-facing apps that need those capabilities together, but its free audience and record limits make it less suited to apps that must scale without a paid plan.

Key features

A built-in database gives teams a place to manage app records alongside their apps: Free allows 2,000 records, while Build raises that ceiling to 25,000. Authentication and API integrations add support for controlling user access and connecting services. Mobile publishing broadens Noloco beyond browser use, though the platform list also includes Windows, macOS, iOS and Android; the product is therefore relevant to teams serving users across desktop and mobile environments.

AI credits are metered monthly: Free includes 30 and Build includes 250. That higher allowance is useful for teams that expect to rely on AI features, but it is still a quota to factor into ongoing use.

Pricing

Noloco is freemium and offers a 14-day trial. Free costs nothing, billed monthly, and includes unlimited team seats, 50 active clients, 2,000 records and 30 AI credits per month. It is the sensible starting point for a small app or evaluation, but the client and record caps constrain growth.

Build costs $79 a month, billed monthly, and includes 10 team seats, 1,000 active clients, 25,000 records and 250 AI credits per month. It is the practical step up for a broader client audience and more data, but the ten-seat team limit is a trade-off from Free’s unlimited team seats. The pricing note also gives a paid starting price of $65/mo (annual); that annual starting figure is distinct from the monthly Build price.

Enterprise has custom pricing, unlimited records, and custom team and client seats. It is aimed at organizations whose record needs exceed Build’s ceiling or that need seat counts tailored to their use. Its seat terms are custom rather than fixed.

Platforms

Noloco supports web, Windows, macOS, iOS and Android, and offers mobile publishing. That range suits teams that need to publish beyond a browser, while the built-in database, authentication and API integrations make it possible to assemble an app around data and user access in one product.

Who it's for

Choose Noloco for internal tools or client-facing apps when a team wants app-building, data storage and mobile publishing in one package. Free is a reasonable fit for a small user base with modest data needs; Build suits teams that need room for up to 1,000 active clients and 25,000 records. Look elsewhere if the fixed Build team-seat limit or Free caps do not fit, or if a published custom-priced Enterprise plan is not a workable route to larger needs.

Pros and cons

• Pro: A built-in database, authentication and API integrations reduce the need to assemble those app capabilities from separate products.
• Pro: Mobile publishing and support for five platforms give teams several ways to reach app users.
• Con: Free stops at 50 active clients and 2,000 records, so a growing app may need to move to paid sooner than its team-seat needs would suggest.
• Con: Build limits teams to 10 seats, and its 250 monthly AI credits remain capped.
• Con: Enterprise uses custom pricing, so its cost cannot be compared with a fixed published price.

Alternatives

Consider Joget instead if a free tier limited to three users is a better fit, or if Linux and self-hosted platform support matter. Retool is another freemium option, with a Team plan priced at $10 a month and separate builder and internal-user charges.

Zoho Creator may suit a solo user who can work within its free plan’s one-user, one-app and 1,000-record limits. Choose Google AppSheet if per-user pricing is preferable: Starter is $5 a month per user and includes five AppSheet databases with 2,500 rows each. Caspio is a paid alternative with no free plan.

Claris FileMaker is another paid option, while DronaHQ has a paid Starter plan at $140 a month with unlimited users, apps and connectors. Quickbase offers a 30-day free trial with Business Plan features and is worth considering if that trial structure better suits an evaluation.

Verdict

Noloco is a sensible choice for teams building data-backed internal or client apps that benefit from built-in storage, authentication, API integrations and mobile publishing. Its clearest advantage is bringing those capabilities together across desktop and mobile platforms; its main drawback is the jump from Free’s small caps to a monthly Build plan with only 10 team seats. Choose it if that balance fits your audience and team, and look elsewhere if your seat or scale requirements do not.
