About x1

x1 is an AI app builder for iPhone apps that deliberately refuses the one-shot prompt-to-app pattern. Instead it runs a structured workflow: you answer a short set of questions and x1 produces a product plan mapping the screens, features and flows the app needs; you shape brand, style and screen design in a visual canvas; then features are built step by step rather than generated in a single pass. The reasoning is that one-shot generators produce a demo that cannot be extended, whereas a plan you can inspect and revise survives contact with a second and third iteration. The back half is the part most AI app builders skip entirely — launch preparation, covering App Store listing copy, screenshots, monetisation and analytics — which is where a first-time solo builder usually stalls. Output is React Native, and every paid plan lets you export the source as a ZIP and keep it, which materially limits lock-in: if x1 stops being useful, the codebase leaves with you. Preview runs on your own phone through Expo Go, private betas ship through TestFlight, and submission to the App Store is supported directly. Pricing is credit-metered so the cost of each AI action is visible before you commit, and the free tier grants 100 non-expiring credits with no card, enough to validate an idea and generate a plan before deciding.
