STOA's verdictRating 5.9 out of 10
If your small team runs Macs on macOS Tahoe with Apple Silicon, Glaze is the fastest way to build custom desktop tools without writing code or hiring a developer.
The standout advantage is local-first apps that access your files and OS — something browser builders like Lovable cannot do. Budget for Pro at $20/month once your free credits run out, and know that Windows/Linux teammates are out until those platforms ship.

Glaze lets a small team build its own Mac desktop tools without hiring a developer, but it only runs on macOS Tahoe with Apple Silicon today, which limits who can use it.
