Newly

AI agent that builds and ships native iOS and Android apps from a plain text idea.

The read

Newly focuses exclusively on native mobile apps, using an AI agent to handle design, backend infrastructure, and store submission in minutes rather than months. Every project ships with full React Native and Expo source code, so there is no vendor lock-in. A free plan allows users to build and preview on a simulator, with paid plans starting at approximately $25 per month for shippable binaries. The platform is narrowly focused on mobile, so it is not useful for teams that also need a companion web app.

Where it shines

  • Generates 100% owned React Native and Expo source with no lock-in
  • AI agent handles simulator testing and App Store submission workflow
  • Sole focus on native mobile means deeper tooling than generalist builders

Worth knowing first

  • Free plan is preview-only and a paid subscription is needed to ship to stores
  • No web app output, which limits teams building cross-platform products

Provisional. This score is read from the product's public capability, not from the one-prompt rebuild the fully reviewed entries went through, so treat it as a placing rather than a verdict.
