AI glossary A–Z
Everything you need to know to get started.
The key terms around AI and 4everyone — explained briefly and in plain language.
- AI (Artificial Intelligence)
- Software that takes on tasks that would otherwise need human thinking — like understanding language and building software.
- API
- An interface two programs use to talk to each other and exchange data, with no human in between.
- Application (App)
- A finished program that does a specific job for you — a checklist, a booking tool or an internal dashboard.
- Backend
- The invisible part of an application that runs calculations, stores data and executes the logic in the background.
- Cloud
- Programs and data run on servers on the internet instead of your own device, so they're reachable anywhere.
- Database
- An orderly digital store where your application keeps information and finds it again at any time.
- Deployment (publishing)
- The step that takes your application online and makes it usable for your team or your customers.
- Frontend
- The visible part of an application — everything you and your users see and operate on screen.
- Hosting
- The place where your finished application runs permanently and stays reachable. With 4everyone it's included.
- Interface (UI)
- The surface you use to operate an application — buttons, fields, menus and views.
- LLM (language model)
- An AI that understands and produces human language. It's the core that turns your description into software.
- Model
- The trained “brain” of an AI. It has learned from many examples and applies that knowledge to your task.
- No-code
- Building applications without writing code yourself. That's exactly what 4everyone enables.
- Prompt
- Your instruction to the AI in plain language. The clearer the prompt, the better the result.
- Token
- The smallest billing unit of AI usage. Your starter token pack is the credit for building.
- Workspace
- Your working area in 4everyone, where you talk to the AI, create projects and watch applications take shape.
Common questions
What beginners often ask
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You describe your goal in plain language and the AI does the rest. Programming knowledge is not required.
What if I don't know anything about AI?
That's completely fine — this page is made for you. You learn everything step by step, and we're with you for your first project.
Can I break something?
No. You can freely experiment, change things and undo them. Nothing goes public until you want it to.
How long until my first result?
Usually just a few minutes. You describe your idea, send it off, and shortly after you see a first working draft.
