Softgen + Bilt
Softgen builds web apps. Bilt builds native mobile apps
Softgen generates web applications with AI. When you need real native iOS and Android apps, Bilt is purpose-built for mobile — same prompt-based workflow, native output.
The mobile gap
Softgen generates web applications quickly. But native mobile apps require native toolchains and device APIs that web builders can't provide.

“We were doing the whole design-to-code pipeline manually. Bilt just... skips the middleman. Prompt goes in, native app comes out. It's genuinely weird how much faster everything moves now.”
