v0 generates UI components. Bilt generates native mobile apps
v0 by Vercel creates beautiful React components from prompts. But components aren't apps — and web components don't run natively on phones. Bilt builds complete native mobile apps from a single prompt.
The mobile gap
v0 excels at generating web UI components. But a mobile app needs more than components — it needs native navigation, device APIs, and app store deployment.

Feature comparison
Built for native mobile
Complete apps, not just components
v0 gives you components — Bilt gives you a complete, working mobile app. Navigation, backend, authentication, and deployment all included.
iOS simulator in your browser
Preview your app on a real iOS simulator streamed to your browser. No Mac or Xcode required. Test the full native experience.
One-click App Store publishing
Publish to the Apple App Store and Google Play with automated build pipelines. Go from prompt to published app in minutes.
Instant backend & APIs
v0 generates frontend only. Bilt generates your frontend and spins up databases, authentication, and APIs automatically.
“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.”
