RorkShips, with caveatsChat-to-app builder aimed squarely at the App Store.
Replit MobileShipsAgent-built Expo apps with a guided submission walkthrough.On free tier, Rork is $0 — design mode only, 35 design credits/mo, max 5/day and Replit Mobile does not publish it. On cheapest paid plan, Rork is $20/mo (Rork Pro) and Replit Mobile is $20 per month (Replit Core). On cheapest plan that reaches ios, Rork is $200/mo (Rork Max) and Replit Mobile does not publish it. On what the plan is metered in, Rork is Credits, reset monthly and Replit Mobile is $20 a month towards top models. StoreReady sells neither of these and takes no referral fee on either — it scores them. Every figure was read off the named company's own page on or since 2026-09-18; the URLs and the dates are at the foot of this page, and a job re-fetches each one on a schedule and fails when a figure is no longer on the page it came from.
The rows in brighter ink are the ones the two companies answer differently.
You want to describe an iOS app and have one exist, and you are prepared to pay for that rather than assemble it. Rork Max is the only tier in this table that generates native SwiftUI — plus iPad, Apple Watch and Vision Pro targets — from a chat, and the App Store is the stated destination of the product rather than a thing you bolt on afterwards.
Free tier. $0 — design mode only, 35 design credits/mo, max 5/day
"Free — Design your app for free. $0". The one platform line under it is "Design mode: explore app designs"; "Build mode: turn designs into working apps" first appears on Rork Pro.
Cheapest paid plan. $20/mo (Rork Pro)
100 credits a month. The platforms on this tier are iPhone apps with SwiftUI, Android apps with Kotlin + Compose, and web.
Cheapest plan that reaches iOS. $200/mo (Rork Max)
⛔ This is the row that decides it, and it is ten times the price Rork leads with. Neither the free tier nor the $20/mo Pro tier produces an iOS app: "iOS apps with SwiftUI", iPad, Apple Watch and Vision Pro all first appear on Rork Max.
What the plan is metered in. Credits, reset monthly
35/mo on Free with a 5-a-day cap, 100/mo on Pro, 1,000/mo on Max — and Max sells credit packs at 1K, 2.5K, 5K and 10K.
The app is really a full-stack product and the mobile shell is the least of it. Replit is the only entry here that gives you the database, the deploys, the collaborators and the agent on one bill: Core at $20 carries "$20 towards most powerful models", "plan mode" and "unlimited workspaces", and Pro adds "10 parallel agents" and "up to 15 collaborators". It is no longer the free option, which it was until 2026-09-18.
Free tier. Not published
replit.com/pricing lists Core at $20 ("$18 / month, billed annually"), Pro at $100 ($90) and Enterprise at Custom. No $0 plan appears on it. The free Starter tier this row carried until 18 September 2026, "Free daily Agent credits" and "Publish up to 1 project", is off the page. What the page still calls free is a usage mode inside Core: "up to 30 hours of chat on free mode" and "up to 60 projects on free mode".
Cheapest paid plan. $20 per month (Replit Core)
$20 monthly, $18 billed annually. Replit Pro is $100 a month, $90 annually.
Cheapest plan that reaches iOS. Not published
Replit's pricing page prices projects, credits, collaborators and agents. No tier on it names iOS, the App Store, or a mobile build — the publishing it describes is deployment on Replit.
What the plan is metered in. $20 a month towards top models
Credit-denominated rather than per seat. Core includes $20 a month towards the most powerful models and Pro $100; the page sells larger monthly blocks at $215, $425, $825 and $2,000.
