Vibecode’s AI analyzes your idea, creates a polished product concept, suggests an app name, prepares App Store metadata, defines key features and screens, and recommends the best project package for your idea. Whether you want a simple SwiftUI utility, a polished productivity app, a tracker, a business tool, or a mobile game, Vibecode helps you turn your idea into a clear development request. HOW IT WORKS 1. Describe your idea Type or record your app concept in natural language. You can describe a simple tool, a full product, or a game idea. 2. Get an AI product brief Vibecode creates a professional description, App Store-style metadata, keywords, feature list, suggested screens, product scope, and recommended package. 3. Choose your package Select the project level that fits your idea: • Basic — simple SwiftUI project • Standard — SwiftUI project with app icon and screenshots • Pro — larger project with backend/API integrations if needed 4. Track your order After purchase, your project appears in My Apps. You can track status updates as your project is prepared. 5.
