# Quick questions before your first build

By Steven Van · 2026-10-05

Users can select multiple answers, write their own, or skip; store prompts, prompt gallery picks, and plan mode go straight to building.

A first prompt that leaves out what an app does or who it is for now triggers clarifying questions in [Base44](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/base44>) before the AI chat starts building.

## Answer or skip

The AI asks a few quick questions, with multi-select answers where options can combine. Users can pick one or more answers, write their own, or skip. It then builds from the information provided.

## Prompts that go straight to building

Store prompts, prompt gallery picks, and plan mode bypass these questions and go straight to building, according to the [October 5 announcement](<https://docs.base44.com/changelog/product#october-5-2026>).
