Design it visually, or describe it and let the AI agent build it for you
A visual table designer with typed fields, choices, lookups and a relationships designer. Schema changes are safe migrations with a backup taken before every change.
Forms are generated for you, then customised in a visual form designer — sections, field order, labels, control types and required/read-only rules. Records can carry file attachments.
A SQL editor plus a visual query builder for saved, exportable queries — and a report designer with grouping, totals and page setup that outputs polished PDF and Excel.
A step-by-step automation builder: open forms, run queries and reports, export files, send email, set and validate fields — fired from record changes, schedules or menu clicks.
Describe the app you need in plain English. The agent creates the tables, relationships, sample data, forms, queries, reports, menu and automations for real — streaming each step live.
Keep folders of Markdown, Word, PDF and PowerPoint files inside your project, vector-indexed locally — so Ask AI answers questions with citations from your own documents.
An import wizard maps CSV and Excel columns to your fields, previews rows and validates every record — rejected rows come back with the reason. Export data, queries and reports just as easily.
Summary tiles and charts, a hierarchical menu builder, and a Run mode that turns your project into a clean end-user app driven by the menu you designed.
Save a run-only copy with its own title, icon, colours and dark mode — optionally password-protected, which encrypts the entire bundled payload. Recipients run it; they can't redesign it.
Anyone who needs a structured data app without standing up a database server or commissioning custom software — see the example use cases for your world
Engagement trackers, proposal pipelines, deliverable registers — and read-only apps you can hand to clients in their own branding.
See use cases →Customers and orders, quotes that become jobs, stock with reorder reminders, and a simple front-counter app for staff.
See use cases →Community grants management, asset and maintenance registers, resident requests and venue bookings — with audit logging built in.
See use cases →Donor and donation registers, volunteer rosters, membership lists and grant acquittals — free software, private supporter data.
See use cases →Asset registers, onboarding trackers, risk and compliance registers, and contract renewal reminders — no IT project required.
See use cases →Collections, club records, research data, home projects — if it fits in tables and deserves better than a spreadsheet, BPA1 Personal can build it.
Get it free →Your whole app — data, forms, queries, reports, documents — is a single .bpa1 file you open, copy and share like a document
Everything runs locally against SQLite. No cloud account, no sync service, no server to stand up — and nothing for anyone else to see.
One .bpa1 file holds the database, metadata, attachments and documents. Copy it, back it up, email it, put it on a USB stick — it just works.
Inside, the metadata is plain JSON and the data is a standard SQLite file — portable, inspectable and version-control friendly.
Automatic backups before every schema change, audit logging, soft delete, restore and database compaction are built in.
BPA1 Personal is free on the Microsoft Store. Optional AI features use your own OpenAI API key, so you stay in control of that too.
Tell the AI Agent what you need — "track community grant applications from submission to payment" — and watch it create the tables, sample data, forms, queries, reports, menu and automations, step by step, for real. You bring your own OpenAI API key; it's stored as a user setting, never inside your project.
