I never once thought of leaving Bubble. And today, I'm even more confident about that decision. 🚀
When AI coding tools started gaining attention, some of my colleagues encouraged me to explore other platforms. Their argument was understandable: why spend hours building visually when AI can turn prompts into working software?
But Bubble had already given me much more than a way to build apps. It helped me understand product development, UI design, databases, workflows, application logic, and how to turn ideas into functional products.
I stayed, kept learning, and kept building.
Then came the Bubble AI Agent. That alone felt like a dream coming true. And now, we have Bubble AI Agent 2 and Bubble MCP. Honestly, this is the kind of progress I've been hoping to see.
What's exciting about Agent 2? 🤖
Agent 2 brings improved accuracy and reliability, handles more complex builds and edits, and makes it easier to iterate on your app with an integrated preview. You can ask for changes and see the results without constantly switching between editor tabs.
And then there's Bubble MCP! 🔥
Bubble MCP allows you to connect an external AI agent directly to your Bubble app, so you can build and edit your app from the AI tool you already use.
Here's how I connected Bubble to Claude:
Open Claude and go to Customize → Connectors.
Click + and search for Bubble MCP.
Click Connect.
Sign in to your Bubble account and approve the requested permissions.
Open a chat, click + → Connectors, and turn on Bubble MCP.
Select or identify your Bubble project and give Claude your first prompt.
And you're ready to start building!
Here's something important to know 👇
Bubble MCP is not limited to Claude!
According to Bubble's official documentation, you can also connect other supported AI tools, including:
ChatGPT by OpenAI
Codex by OpenAI
Claude and Claude Code
VS Code with GitHub Copilot
Other compatible MCP clients
For ChatGPT, you'll need to enable Developer Mode, create a custom MCP server connection, enter Bubble's MCP server URL, and authorize your Bubble account using OAuth. The setup differs slightly depending on the tool you're using.
Bubble MCP is currently in beta and doesn't consume your Bubble AI credits, although your AI provider's own usage limits still apply.
My experiment 🎥
I connected Claude to Bubble through MCP, selected my project, and tested it with a prompt to add a new How It Works page and a few UI elements.
The video below shows the result of Claude + Bubble MCP + Bubble.
For me, this goes beyond a new feature. Bubble has played a huge part in my growth as a developer, and these updates make me even more excited about what lies ahead.
I never regretted staying with Bubble. And now, I'm even more confident about continuing to build with it.
Bubblers, have you tried Agent 2 or Bubble MCP yet? What has your experience been like?👇
From prompts to products, the possibilities keep growing. 🚀
Thanks to @Bubble Team.

I ran a session with my team on how to build a team of AI agents, and how to treat them so they actually deliver.
What we've seen running this setup on client work:
→ Agents running 24/7
→ 3B+ tokens in 6 days
→ A 2-week milestone done in 3 days
The 5 things I taught the team:
Treat agents like teammates, not software.
Give them a clear goal, the right context and tools they're comfortable with.
Tell them the goal, never the solution.
Let the agents propose the options. You make the call.
Talk to one agent, not ten.
A central PM agent takes the goal and coordinates the rest.
Solve today's problem.
Don't build the perfect agent on day one. Start small and let the team grow with the work.
Don't be the bottleneck.
Review at milestones, not every task.
For clients, this changes the pace. My job is understanding the problem and making the decisions. The agents handle the execution.

Cool AI work
For me, it’s cultural context. AI can generate references, but it can’t fully replicate lived experience. As a South African creative, so much of my work relies on instinct, memory, language and the nuances of how we actually experience our culture.

AI Chatbot App — 40% Engagement Lift for a Customer Support Tool
Project description:
The client needed an AI chatbot app built from the ground up — no existing design, no reference, just a goal: make it feel human, fast and easy to use. I designed the full experience in Figma — mapping user flows, building wireframes, then crafting a clean high-fidelity UI with a smooth onboarding screen, contextual quick-reply chips and a minimal visual language that keeps focus on the conversation. Delivered with handoff-ready specs and a reusable component library.
Result:
→ +40% user engagement
→ −25% response time
→ Improved customer satisfaction
Wowwwww I like the aesthetics
