Bungee Labs has released a service called Bungee Connect an on-demand service that helps developers build rich internet applications that can be hosted by Bungee.

The service includes wizards to simplify specific workflows for developers and it supports the ability to import code from different projects, style sheets and APIs. The service aims to slash the time and costs associated with the entire application life cycle.

“It’s time to stop developing ‘here’ and running ‘there.’ Today, most applications are coded in one environment, then tested in another, and redeployed to yet another for production,” said David Mitchell, Bungee’s Founder and CTO.

Developers can use Bungee without charge to develop software, to collaborate with colleagues and to test applications. They are charged only when end users run an application that was built using Bungee. Charges range $2 to $5 per month per user for a heavily used business productivity application or fractions of a cent per e-commerce transaction.
