Loved by builders
Rated 4.9/5 by developers and founders using BYOB to move from idea to shipped product.
Built for shipping
The parts that usually slow you down are already here.
BYOB handles product planning, implementation, preview, testing, database work, and deployment from one focused interface, with coding-agent access and production analytics when you want to keep working from your own terminal.
This part is hands-on. The cards drift until you touch them. Drag to rearrange, or press and hold one to feel it push back.
Agent integrations
Give Codex, Claude Code, or Antigravity scoped access through BYOB CLI or Agent MCP. Your agent reads context, edits code, tests previews, and deploys from your terminal.
Git history and diffs
Every change lands as a commit. Inspect history, compare diffs, and see exactly what changed since the last deploy.
Inbox in every project
Every project ships with an inbox. Collect messages, leads, and feedback from your app without wiring a third party.
Email sending built in
Send magic links, OTP codes, and transactional mail from your own sender address. Resend-backed, no SMTP setup.
Google and magic-link login
Offer Continue with Google plus passwordless email codes. Sessions and callbacks are handled.
Custom domains and SSL
Point your domain at BYOB with guided DNS checks. Certificates are automatic.
Visual editing
Click any element in the live preview and describe the change. Copy, spacing, color, behavior.
AI testing agent
Run full-site or feature checks and get implementation-level feedback you can apply in one step.
Version rollback
Step between saved states or redeploy a known commit when an experiment goes sideways.
One-click deploy
Builds publish to production hosting in one step. Deploys can auto-save the project state first.
Deployment analytics
Worker traffic, errors, CPU timing, subrequests, and custom-domain status from the workspace.
Supabase aware
Connect Supabase and BYOB reads schemas, drafts migrations, and generates types that match your app.

For a Tokyo retail business, BYOB builds a Japanese-first storefront with bilingual product pages, mobile checkout and seasonal collections you can update yourself. It is designed for customers who expect precise product detail, clear consumption-tax pricing at 10%, and payment options such as PayPay alongside major credit cards.
Why Tokyo retail rewards a Japanese-first website
Tokyo customers are accustomed to shops that explain every product clearly, in Japanese, before they commit. A site translated awkwardly from English can feel transactional, while a native Japanese storefront signals that you take the local market seriously. Retailers in Shibuya, Ginza and Nakameguro use their websites to preview new arrivals, describe materials and care instructions, and answer the small questions staff would handle in person. BYOB gives you editable pages and product templates so that level of detail stays current, without a developer for every seasonal edit.
Neighbourhoods that shape Tokyo retail demand
Tokyo is a city of retail districts, and each has its own rhythm. Harajuku and Shibuya draw trend-led, younger shoppers; Ginza and Omotesando attract luxury and gift buyers; Shimokitazawa and Koenji suit independent and vintage labels. If your physical shop sits in one of these areas, your website should name the neighbourhood, show a map and reflect the same taste as your window display. Customers often discover a brand online, check whether the shop is near their commute, then visit. Clear location pages and opening hours turn that online interest into foot traffic.
Seasonal rhythm and Japan's gift-giving culture
Japanese retail moves with the calendar. New Year brings fukubukuro lucky bags, summer calls for ochugen gifts, and winter for oseibo, while cherry-blossom and holiday campaigns create short, intense demand windows. A Tokyo storefront needs to swap banners, bundles and product collections quickly; if every change requires a developer, the moment passes. BYOB lets you schedule and publish seasonal sections yourself, keep a clean archive of past campaigns, and reuse layouts. That rhythm matters for both large department-style sellers and small neighbourhood shops that rely on a handful of well-timed promotions each year.
Payments, consumption tax and a calm checkout
Tokyo shoppers expect a smooth checkout with familiar options. Credit cards remain common, while PayPay and other QR-code wallets have become a normal part of daily payments. Prices on a Japanese retail site are usually shown tax-included, and consumption tax currently sits at 10%, so your product pages should make the final amount obvious rather than surprising buyers at the last step. Keep the basket simple, support mobile wallets where you can, and write confirmation emails in Japanese. A checkout that mirrors what customers already use in stores removes hesitation and reduces abandoned baskets.
Building trust before the first visit
In Tokyo, trust is earned through consistency: accurate stock information, polite copy, genuine reviews and a visible address. A storefront that lists a real phone number, clear returns policy and staff profiles feels more credible than a generic template. Many shoppers compare your site with your Google and map listings, so keep opening hours and holiday closures aligned. Photography matters too; clean, well-lit product images suit the local preference for understated presentation. BYOB's editable pages make it easy to add policy pages, testimonial blocks and a short brand story that reassures first-time customers.
Publishing product stories without a developer
Tokyo retail is detail-driven, and that detail changes constantly: restocks, collaborations, limited runs and care guides. When content lives in a locked template, small updates queue up and go stale. BYOB gives you a visual editor and reusable sections so a shop owner or single marketer can add a new collection, adjust a size chart or rewrite a product description the same afternoon. You can keep a Japanese master page and an English version for visitors from abroad, then link the two. The goal is a storefront that stays as current as your shelves.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a Japanese-language website to sell in Tokyo?
It is strongly advisable. Most local customers browse and buy in Japanese, and a native-language storefront improves both trust and conversion. You can keep a separate English version for tourists and expatriates, but the Japanese site should be the primary experience.
Can I accept PayPay on a Tokyo retail site?
You can, although QR-wallet integrations depend on your payment provider and business setup. Many Tokyo retailers combine a card processor with PayPay or similar wallets. BYOB lets you describe and link whichever options you enable and keep the checkout messaging consistent.
How should I display consumption tax at 10%?
Japanese shoppers generally expect tax-included prices, so show the final amount clearly on product pages and in the basket. If you list pre-tax figures, label them explicitly. Consistent rounding and a visible total reduce confusion at checkout.
Is a.jp domain important for a Tokyo shop?
A.jp domain can reinforce local credibility, especially for a business with a physical Tokyo presence. It is not strictly required, but pairing a local domain with a Japanese-language site and a real address reads as more trustworthy to nearby customers.
How do I handle seasonal collections like fukubukuro?
Plan the layout in advance, prepare product bundles and banners, then publish on a schedule. A reusable template lets you open and close the promotion without rebuilding pages, and you can archive past campaigns for reference the following year.
