Choose around what you want to make.
For a personal tool you can shape on your phone
Build Me An App is designed for this. Start with a tracker, small game, journal or focused tool. Describe it by voice or text, test the preview, and ask for changes. You can choose the AI model, adjust your app’s icon, and revisit earlier versions.
For a website or a shared development workflow
Look at the web, collaboration and deployment features in the other builders’ documentation. If your project depends on a particular integration or team workflow, check that requirement before you subscribe.
For an app you can take further yourself
New AI apps made in Build Me An App are Expo (React Native) projects. Download the source ZIP to work on them outside the app. Android APK builds work today; iPhone builds and direct store submission are still to come.
What a Build Me An App plan includes
- Maker — $19 USD/month: 300 AI credits and 4 build credits each month.
- Studio — $49 USD/month: 900 AI credits and 8 build credits each month.
One Android build uses one build credit. AI usage depends on your model and requests. Credits refill at the start of each calendar month. Google Play manages Android subscriptions, and local prices may differ.
Existing apps remain usable after your plan ends. New apps and AI changes require an active plan. See plans and billing details.
