Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | Base44 | Hostinger AI Builder | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 6.3 | 5.5 | Base44 — Pick Base44 if you are not a developer and want auth, a database, payments and hosting handled for you; pick Lovable if you are a developer who will want to read the code. |
| El Crítico | 5.8 | 4.5 | Base44 — Backend, database, auth and hosting all live inside Base44, so leaving means rewriting the half of the app you never saw; code editing and GitHub on paid plans are the only door out. |
| El Profesor | 5.8 | 4.8 | Base44 — Model choice on Builder and above spans Claude Sonnet 5, Claude Opus 5, GPT-5.6 and an in-house Base 1 for which no evaluation is published. |
| La Inversora | 7.3 | 6.8 | Base44 — Wix paid about $80M for Base44 in June 2025, and the buyer already sells websites to small businesses, so distribution is settled and the pricing page is Wix's to tune. |
| La Jefa | 5.5 | 4.5 | Base44 — Sixty Elite seats is $9,600 a month for 1,200 credits each, Enterprise is custom, and SSO-enforced workspaces exist, which is more than most builders on this board can say. |
| El Hacker | 4.0 | 3.3 | Base44 — A hosted MCP server at app.base44.com/mcp with 13 tools including run_command, write_file and create_checkpoint, over OAuth; not on the free or Starter plans, no BYOK, nothing to fork. |
