# ronda

> Edit your web app in plain English. ronda turns natural-language requests into precise code changes, runs them in a live sandbox running your real dev server, and ships them as GitHub pull requests your team reviews and merges.

ronda lets non-engineers safely change a real web application. You connect a GitHub repository, describe the change you want in plain English, preview it live, and open a standard pull request. There is no rewrite and no new framework to adopt. AI app builders generate throwaway projects from scratch; ronda edits the codebase you already ship. ronda is bring-your-own-key (you use your own Anthropic API key and pay Anthropic directly) and can be driven from Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, or any MCP-capable agent.

Pricing: the Free plan ($0) includes 1 project, 1 sandbox at a time, and 1 collaborator. The Starter plan ($9/month) includes 5 projects, 5 sandboxes per project, and unlimited collaborators. Both plans are bring-your-own Anthropic key. No credit card is required to start.
