Nativeline is the first AI platform that builds native apps for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, all in one place. Other tools stop at iPhone. Most output web wrappers. Nativeline builds real native Swift for every Apple platform. Mac apps with menus and multiple windows. iPad apps that use the full screen. iPhone apps that feel like they belong. Choose your platform. Describe your idea. Ship to the App Store. The Apple ecosystem. Unlocked.
Hey Product Hunt, Kane here, founder of Nativeline.
Here's the problem with AI app builders right now:
❌ Most only build for iPhone
❌ "iPad support" = stretched iPhone app that looks like garbage
❌ Mac apps? Basically impossible. Too complex, no one touches it
❌ And most of what they output is web wrappers anyway, not real native apps
Meanwhile:
→ Mac apps are incredibly valuable. Menu bar tools, productivity apps, SaaS utilities. But actually building one? Xcode feels like a cockpit. AppKit confusion. Most people give up.
→ iPad has a massive screen and real power. But every AI tool treats it like a big phone.
So we built Nativeline to fix this.
✅ Choose your platform, iPhone, iPad, or Mac
✅ Describe your idea in plain English
✅ Get real native Swift, not a web wrapper
✅ Ship to the App Store
Mac apps with real menus and windows. iPad apps designed for the full screen. iPhone apps that feel right.
One platform. The Apple ecosystem.
Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback.
I've been working on building full-stack editing apps. Perhaps I should give IOS dev a try too! :) Super cool product, I can't wait to see how you guys grow this out!
The speed to MVP here looks incredible. Being able to build for iPhone, iPad, and Mac all in one go through a conversation could save weeks of development time. I’m curious—once the app is built, can we fully export the project files to continue working in Xcode if needed?
This is awesome! I know exactly what I am going to build - a multi-platform MCP Server inspection tool!
Congrats on the launch. The positioning is super clear and I love the focus on real native Swift instead of web wrappers.
Building for iPhone, iPad, and Mac in one flow is a big promise, and the “watch it build in real time” angle is very compelling. Excited to see how you handle the last-mile details like App Store submission, signing/provisioning, and keeping the generated code maintainable as the project grows.
wow, this is super interesting - Apple always keeps it products so locked down and difficult to work with, I'd love to use this site if it means I can do everything by proxy to get onto their ecosystems.
Super excited to share Nativeline with everyone today! Been several months in building, testing, and iteration. Let me know what you think!
Just started using Nativeline and I'm loving it, the build process is super simple and easy to learn as someone who's never made a mobile app.
Question - I haven't gotten to the deployment though, how's the process for taking the app from the platform to live on the app store?
Everytime I think about how fast @kanepanderson has been evolving this platform I get shivers. lol. this is giving even more advantage than Xcode with their agentic coding built in. and even more so if you are not a developer....yet want to get your feet wet. this is quite simply the best onramp into that world I've found. And yes...I've tried them all. lol.
Now doing mac apps, and iPad....each with their appropriate styling and behaviors while leveraging the latest APIs and frameworks form Apple, mean that I am able to move really fast. and in this day ..with the speed of the software industry... this is my nitro.
