Bilt’s AI agent builds your app through a conversational interface. Describe what you want, and the AI writes the code, structures the project, and updates the live preview — all in real time.Documentation Index

How it works
Every Bilt project has a chat interface. You type instructions in plain English; the AI interprets them and modifies your app. Each message triggers a workflow — the AI plans the changes, writes or modifies code, rebuilds the app, and updates the live simulator. You see progress in real time with status updates and a thinking indicator.What you can ask
The AI handles everything from high-level app descriptions to specific UI tweaks:| Type | Example |
|---|---|
| Create from scratch | ”Build a workout tracker with daily logs and progress charts” |
| Add features | ”Add a settings page with dark mode and notification preferences” |
| Change design | ”Make the header gradient blue-to-purple and increase the font size” |
| Fix issues | ”The save button doesn’t work on the edit screen — fix it” |
| Connect services | ”Connect to Supabase so users can sign up and save data” |
| Prepare for launch | ”Add an app icon, splash screen, and get ready for App Store submission” |
Attachments
You can attach screenshots and images to your messages. Use this to show the AI a design you want to match, a bug you’re seeing, or a reference from another app.Workflow controls
Each AI response is a workflow that you can control:- Pause — Stop the current build while keeping progress
- Resume — Continue a paused workflow
- Cancel — Stop and discard the current workflow
- New message — Start a new workflow with different instructions
Session history
Your full conversation history is saved. You can scroll back to see what the AI built, what you asked for, and how the app evolved. Each session tracks the tools used, status changes, and results.Tips for better results
- Be specific about what you want — “add a profile page with avatar, name, and email fields” works better than “add a profile”
- Iterate in small steps — build the core flow first, then refine
- Reference what exists — “on the home screen, add a search bar at the top”
- Describe the user experience — “when the user taps a recipe, show the full recipe with ingredients and steps”
