| You want… | Starwisp | Chat builders (Lovable, Bolt, v0) | Coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor) | Boilerplates (ShipFast, Makerkit) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Idea to native iPhone + Android builds, unprompted | Yes, to testing tracks | Mostly web only | Code only; you wire the rest | You build the app |
| Fastest first look at an idea | No. Setup needs about 8 accounts. | They win. Minutes, in a browser. | Fast if you code | Slower |
| Own the code and accounts | Yes, all of it | Varies; hosted platforms can lock you in | Yes | Yes |
| Control over every line | You review pull requests | Limited | They win. You drive. | They win. You write it. |
| Cost model | One payment plus your API bill | Credits or subscription | Subscription or API | One payment |
| Mature community and support | New product, small team | They win. | They win. | Established |
| Security checks built into the pipeline | A gate stage, not a guarantee | Reported exposures exist | Up to you | Up to you |
Pick something else if…
- You only need a web prototype today. A chat builder is faster.
- You want to write the code yourself. A coding agent or a boilerplate fits better.
- You can't open vendor accounts or wait through Apple, Google and Twilio setup.
- You need Flutter, native Swift/Kotlin, multi-language listings or a non-Supabase backend. Not supported yet.
