UI Bakery:
For Developers,
By Developers
We’re proud to be a profitable, bootstrapped company that hasn’t taken any VC funding to date. Sometimes, we even find it hard to believe!

It all started in 2018. At the time, our team was deeply involved in several popular open-source projects, including ngx-admin, Nebular, and UI Kitten. We earned our keep by providing services and customizations for clients, but most of those requests revolved around the same core elements - forms, tables, and charts. That got us thinking: what if we could build a product that empowered our clients to create their own applications?
"Before jumping in, we wanted to test the idea ourselves. So, we built a prototype to streamline project delivery for our clients."
This was the spark that ignited UI Bakery. After two years of internal development and validation, we realized the potential stretched beyond our team. In 2020, we launched UI Bakery publicly, gathered initial feedback, and landed our first clients.
The Journey to UI Bakery 2.0
Initially, UI Bakery was designed with our own needs in mind, which made it a tool that only we could use effectively. While we knew we had something powerful, it needed refinement to be useful to a broader audience. This realization led to a crucial pivot in early 2021. By the end of that year, we launched UI Bakery 2.0 — a more accessible and versatile platform tailored for building internal tools, customer portals, and dashboards.


Building a Sustainable Business
In 2022, UI Bakery became its own legal entity. By mid-year, we reached a significant milestone: $10,000 in MRR. But the real turning point came in December 2023, when UI Bakery became profitable!


Our momentum continued into 2024. In March, we launched the UI Bakery AI App Generator—a new tool powered by artificial intelligence. Just two months later, in May, we surpassed $1 million in ARR.
Why Not Open Source?
We’re strong advocates of open-source and actively support projects like HTMX and Codemirror. However, our past experiences with open-source monetization presented some challenges. With UI Bakery, we set out to build a sustainable business model from the start, one that would support ongoing development. While open-sourcing UI Bakery (or parts of it) is something we may explore in the future, our current focus is on delivering a powerful, reliable platform for our developer community.
Meet UI Bakery heroes
We started as a small team of just 1 manager, 2 developers, and 1 designer. Today, we’ve grown into a close-knit group of talented individuals, each bringing unique expertise and deep knowledge to our product. Every team member plays a vital role in shaping UI Bakery, and together, we’re building something we’re truly believe in.
