From Idea to App in Minutes
Launched in June 2025, Vibecode is a game-changing iOS app that lets you turn natural language prompts into fully functional mobile apps. You simply type (or speak) your idea—like “Create a habit tracker with daily reminders and a pastel color scheme”—and Vibecode’s AI instantly generates it for you.
It’s not just a tech demo. The platform has already powered 40,000+ apps in just weeks, from productivity tools to creative projects.
Backed by Big Names
The hype isn’t unfounded. In August 2025, Vibecode raised $9.4 million in seed funding led by Alexis Ohanian’s Seven Seven Six, with backing from tech giants and top VCs. The vision is clear—make app creation as easy as making a TikTok video.
This is part of a bigger trend dubbed “apps as content”—where building an app becomes something everyday creators can do, not just professional developers.
The 5-Minute Demo That Stunned Developers
Co-founder Riley Brown recently went viral for creating an iPad app in just 5 minutes. No code, no complex tools—just natural language prompts and a sleek Vibecode interface. The upcoming “Upload to App Store” feature will let creators publish instantly, turning ideas into public apps in record time.
