Bilt

What is Bilt?

Bilt is a mobile app builder that translates written descriptions into production-ready React Native applications. Instead of writing code or configuring a development environment, users describe features in natural language and watch their app take shape in a cloud-streamed iOS simulator inside the browser. The platform handles everything from UI and backend logic to Supabase integration, GitHub syncing, and App Store submission, making it usable by non-technical founders and professional developers alike.

Key Features

• Natural Language App Building

  Describe features in plain English and Bilt's AI writes and updates the underlying React Native code in real time.

• Live Cloud iOS Preview

  A streamed iOS simulator runs directly in the browser, so changes appear instantly without Xcode or a Mac.

• One-Click Publishing

  Apps can be submitted straight to the App Store or Google Play, with signing, builds, and distribution managed automatically.

• Backend and GitHub Integration

  Connect a Supabase backend for auth, database, and real-time data, or sync the codebase to a GitHub repository.

• Full Source Code Export

  Users retain complete ownership and can export the clean React Native codebase at any time with no platform lock-in.

• AI Agent and MCP Access

  Tools like Claude, Cursor, and OpenClaw can build, iterate, and deploy apps programmatically through Bilt's MCP API.

Use Cases

• Startup MVPs : Founders can ship a working iOS app from an idea without hiring developers or learning to code.
• Rapid Prototyping : Product and design teams can create realistic, shareable prototypes to validate ideas and gather feedback in minutes.
• Developer Scaffolding : Developers can generate app scaffolds with AI and then export the code to continue refining it in Xcode.
• Internal Tools : Teams can build dashboards and operational utilities quickly without dedicating engineering resources.
• Agent-Driven App Creation : AI agents can autonomously build, manage, and deploy apps end-to-end via natural language through the MCP interface.
