You embrace our way of thinking and acting, in accordance with the following principles. Since 2011, GoodBarber offers the technology to easily create an app, without technical knowledge. ## Who we are We are as diverse as the apps our users create; we are curious, inspired and open. We proudly work for users spread around the world and we keep cultivating and sharing our passion for digital and technology in our home, Corsica — where it all started. All of us work on improving GoodBarber and our products — that help our customers find new ways and new solutions to do things differently and with a broader reach. ## Our vision The **democratization of technology** is what inspires us. Nowadays smartphones are the universal remote to interaction. In spite of geographical distance, common interests and values bring people together through the Web and Apps. We want people to get their place in the web and app universe, to have the tools and the opportunity to freely express themselves by sharing information, building and exchanging with their community or selling products. ## Our purpose We want people to be able to **intuitively and autonomously** build their own native or progressive web app, regardless of their technical skills. Furthermore, by taking part in the democratization of technology, we want to inspire and serve future generations. ## Our mission **Making technology accessible to all** is the reason why we exist. We achieve it by providing an intuitive and comprehensive App Builder that allows users with no tech skills to have access to web and app technology, so they can create their own apps according to their own needs. Furthermore, we facilitate the work of app agencies that use our technology to provide their services. We are there every step of the way, accompanying and assisting users in their creation process and beyond. Besides this, we understand the importance of facilitating and empowering others, which is why we also act as an Incubator Hub to create new educational and economic opportunities to anyone who wishes. > "Behind every app there is an idea, a concept, a project, sometimes a business, or a passion, or a will of enhancing technological or social innovation. Our mission is to make it happen." ## Our values ### Users value We develop, design and improve our technology focusing on users' experience, in order for it to be intuitive, performant, affordable and competitive.

It offers **evolving guidelines** for a consistent design language, ensuring efficiency and scalability. It establishes common design principles and patterns while allowing flexibility and customization when needed. Ultimately, it helps streamline app development and create beautiful and functional apps. The Design System is organized into three parts: - **Foundations**: core principles for cohesive and consistent template construction across all platforms. - **Atoms**: essential components that guarantee visual consistency and streamline workflow. - **Components**: reusable elements as building blocks for cohesive and user-friendly interfaces. ## Why these design guidelines? GoodBarber, a no-code app builder launched in 2011, empowers users to create stunning native apps or Progressive Web Apps effortlessly. In the early days of GoodBarber, UX design wasn't fully understood, making app development challenging without consistent guidelines. This journey led to the GoodBarber Design System, offering comprehensive guidelines and best practices to achieve **visual consistency, streamline development**, and ensure a **consistent user experience**. By sharing its design principles, GoodBarber empowers users to achieve consistency, efficiency, and scalability in their app development, enhancing the overall quality of the apps created with the technology. - **Developers** have access to the technical specifications of the pages and components: their size, their positioning, their behaviors and their properties. - **Designers** can rely on a set of spacing rules, font sizes, image ratios or color distribution for the creation of new pages. ## Objectives - Streamline template creation and production by implementing construction principles. - Ensure visual consistency between the pages of an app across different platforms. - Guarantee a smooth and optimal user experience. ## What is a good design? ### Good space management In design, "white" space, also known as negative space, plays a crucial role in creating a clean, uncluttered design by separating and highlighting elements. Additionally, it aids in establishing a hierarchy and guiding the user's eye to key information. Ensuring visual consistency across pages involves using **recurring spacing** values and aligning elements using a grid for a fluid reading experience. ### Clear hierarchy Achieving **good contrast** between text levels is crucial for an organized and readable layout. GoodBarber uses the **golden ratio** to establish size ratios between headings and body text, ensuring aesthetic appeal and functionality. Typography techniques such as weight, color, and spacing enhance contrast and guide user attention, resulting in a visually organized and easy-to-read layout. ### Good font and color management **Restricting the number of fonts** and colors enhances clarity and avoids confusion in design presentation. Users choose from preset themes with a defined set of fonts, facilitating aesthetic coherence and user customization. Utilizing **four main colors** ensures an efficient information hierarchy, with strategic allocation for brand identity and interactive elements. > This framework makes it possible to apply an efficient default design to apps, but GoodBarber also allows advanced users to customize their product in a very precise way, well beyond the basic recommendations. --- # GoodBarber App Builder: The ultimate CMS dashboard Source: https://www.goodbarber.com/dashboard/ The ultimate dashboard for your mobile apps: the best tool on the market to create and manage high-performing mobile apps, without compromise. ## An intuitive interface for everyone GoodBarber offers an ultra-ergonomic interface that guides you step by step.

Example: ask "Schedule a push for tonight to announce the summer sale" and the assistant schedules the push notification. ## What is MCP? MCP stands for **Model Context Protocol** — an open standard that lets AI assistants connect to external systems in one structured, predictable way, instead of copying information back and forth. GoodBarber didn't invent the protocol. They built **a server that speaks it** — so your assistant can work with your app much like you do from the back office, only through natural language. Flow: Your AI assistant (asks in plain language) → GoodBarber MCP (one well-defined connection) → Your GoodBarber app (content, shop, actions). Examples: add a product to your shop, schedule a push notification, update an article in your CMS. Everything is scoped to your app and does only what you allow. ## What does GoodBarber MCP do? It connects AI assistants and agent workflows to your app's **content, shop and everyday actions**. Ask your assistant to carry out a task, and it does it on your app after you sign in. Every action is **scoped to your own app** — an assistant only ever does what you allow. ## What you can do with it ### Manage your shop Add products, set variants and prices, and organize your collections — without leaving the conversation. ### Handle orders Look up an order, check its status, update shipping and keep fulfillment moving. ### Run marketing Schedule a push notification campaign or create a promo code in seconds. ### Update content Publish or edit articles and events, and manage the media inside your app. ### Customer insights & analytics Find a customer, check loyalty status and review downloads, page views and session time. ## Who it is for - **Developers**: Plug your GoodBarber app into the assistants and agent tooling you already use. - **Product and marketing teams**: Run everyday tasks — content, campaigns, catalog — by conversation, with no back office required. - **Agencies and resellers**: Operate the apps you manage for clients faster, and build assistant-driven workflows on top. - **Advanced builders**: Explore AI-native, agent-driven ways to run and grow your app. ## Why it matters - **A real differentiator**: Few app builders are agent ready. GoodBarber ships an open-source MCP server and 44 ready-to-use Skills. - **Less busywork**: Hand repetitive tasks to an assistant and keep your hands on the decisions. - **Agent workflows**: Chain actions together, from content to commerce, inside the assistant you already use. - **New integrations**: One standard connection opens your app to a growing ecosystem of MCP-aware tools. ## Frequently asked questions **What is GoodBarber MCP?** GoodBarber MCP is a Model Context Protocol server from GoodBarber. It lets AI assistants connect to your GoodBarber app and carry out tasks — managing content, shop, orders, marketing and customers — through natural language, scoped to your own app. **Which AI assistants can I use?** Any MCP-compatible assistant. GoodBarber MCP works with Claude and ChatGPT today, along with other MCP-aware clients and agent tools. **What can I do with it?** You can add and update products, organize collections, handle orders, schedule push notifications, create promo codes, publish articles and events, and review your app's stats — just by asking your assistant. **Is it secure?** Yes. You sign in before anything happens, and every action is scoped to your own app — an assistant connected to your app cannot reach anyone else's. You stay in control and can disconnect at any time. **How do I connect it?** Add GoodBarber as a connector in your AI assistant, point it at the GoodBarber MCP endpoint at https://mcp.goodbarber.dev/mcp/sse, and sign in. A step-by-step guide for Claude is available at https://www.goodbarber.com/connect-claude-app/ **Is it included in my GoodBarber plan?** GoodBarber MCP is part of the GoodBarber platform — there is no separate MCP subscription. All you need is a GoodBarber app and an MCP-compatible AI assistant. **What is the difference between the MCP server and the 44 Skills?** The MCP server is the live connection your assistant uses to act on your app. The 44 Skills are ready-made, open-source recipes that wrap common GoodBarber workflows so assistants can run them out of the box. They work together: the Skills call the MCP server. The Skills are published on GitHub, and resellers can rebrand them. ## Where to go next - Connect Claude step-by-step guide: https://www.goodbarber.com/connect-claude-app/ - GoodBarber Skills on GitHub: https://github.com/goodbarber/goodbarber-skills - Explore GoodBarber AI: https://www.goodbarber.com/ai/ - Blog: "Your GoodBarber app is now AI-agent-ready: 44 Skills for Claude Code, Cursor and any MCP client" - Blog: "Your app is an AI backend: why agent-ready beats building AI agents" --- # GoodBarber Connector for Claude — Manage Your App by Chat Source: https://www.goodbarber.com/connect-claude-app/ Manage your GoodBarber app from Claude: edit products, prices and stock, create articles and events, and send push notifications — all in plain language. ## Connect your GoodBarber app to Claude Your whole GoodBarber back-office, controlled by conversation. List and edit products, update prices and stock, publish articles and events, and send push notifications to your audience — all in natural language. This connector works with **Claude.ai (web), Claude Desktop, and Claude mobile**. Example: "Increase the price of the 'Corsican honey' product by 5 euros, then send a push to announce it." Claude finds the product, updates the price, and sends a push notification after confirmation. ## Requirements Two accounts are all you need to get started. ### A GoodBarber account With at least one app. - Works with any app — Shop, CMS, Community or Membership features all supported. - The connector is scoped to a single app — the one tied to the API key you use. ### A Claude account Free, Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise. - Some Claude plans may limit the number of custom connectors — check Anthropic's current plan details. - On Team / Enterprise, adding a connector at the organization level may require Owner permissions — see your Claude admin settings. ## Setup — add the connector Connecting takes about a minute. No developer setup required. 1. **Open Connectors in Claude**: In Claude, go to Settings → Connectors (or Customize → Connectors). 2. **Add a custom connector**: Click "Add custom connector". 3. **Paste the GoodBarber MCP server URL**: `https://mcp.goodbarber.dev/mcp/sse` 4. **Leave the OAuth fields empty**: Leave the OAuth Client ID / Secret fields empty — GoodBarber registers your client automatically (Dynamic Client Registration). 5. **Click Add**: The GoodBarber sign-in screen appears. 6. **Enter your API key and authorize**: On the GoodBarber sign-in screen, enter an API key from your GoodBarber back office. Each key is tied to one app — that's the app Claude will manage. Authorize access. 7. **You're done**: GoodBarber tools are now available in your Claude conversations. Your session is scoped to the single app tied to your API key. The tools you see depend on the services enabled on that app (Shop, CMS, Community, Membership). ## Usage — example prompts Once connected, just ask Claude in plain language. Open-source skills for Claude are available at https://github.com/goodbarber/goodbarber-skills ### Catalog & products - List my latest products with their price and stock. - Show me the details of [product name]. - Increase the price of [product name] by 5 euros. - Create a new product called [name]. ### Content (CMS) - List my latest articles. - Create a published article titled [title] announcing [message]. - Create an event on [date] called [name]. ### Orders & customers - Show me my recent orders and their shipping status. - Mark order #[id] as shipped. - List my customers. ### Marketing - Send a push notification to my customers to announce [message]. Claude asks for your confirmation before any sensitive action — creating, updating, deleting, or sending a push. ## What you can do The exact set of tools available depends on the services enabled on your GoodBarber app. | Area | Capabilities | |---|---| | Shop | Browse, create and edit products, manage prices and stock, view and update orders and shipping, view customers, send push notifications. | | CMS | Create and edit articles, events, photo galleries and videos. | | Community / Membership | View active subscribers, send push notifications. | ## Security & privacy Your connection is private, scoped to a single app, and revocable at any time. - **OAuth 2.1 with PKCE**: Authentication uses OAuth 2.1 with PKCE. Your GoodBarber API key is never shared with Claude. - **Scoped to a single app**: Each connection is scoped to a single app — Claude can only access the app you authorized, never other GoodBarber accounts. - **Revoke any time**: You can revoke access at any time from your GoodBarber account, or by removing the connector in Claude. - **Privacy Policy**: https://www.goodbarber.com/privacy/ ## Support Need help connecting or using the GoodBarber connector?

Additional push notifications can be purchased for $10 per 100K. Extra push notifications purchased are carried over month after month until they are used up. ### How many apps can I create with my subscription? 1 subscription = 1 project.

Secure storage of your data is included. ### What happens if I cancel my subscription? Your app will no longer function. To reactivate it, simply resubscribe. As long as you have a history of at least 1 month paid subscription, your project will be stored for one year, beyond which it will be permanently deleted. ### App Store Submission You can publish your app on the App Store yourself, or GoodBarber can take care of it. In that case, the iOS version of your app is built and submitted by the GoodBarber team under your Apple Developer Account, after a thorough review for compliance with App Store guidelines. This step is billed $50 for 5 credits (initial submission + 4 updates), with a commitment to complete the assessment within 72 business hours. --- # Shopping App pricing - eCommerce app builder prices and plans Source: https://www.goodbarber.com/pricing/ecommerce/ Sell online with an amazing app. Every plan starts with a 30-day free trial.

The purchase of a One-time License gives you access to the current version of GoodBarber and its updates for a period of 10 years. The One-time License is a one-time payment allowing you to create an unlimited number of apps. Included are native iOS & Android apps, PWAs and all extensions, even paid ones. ### What are the advantages of One-time License? You pay once and enjoy GoodBarber for 10 years. The license price is locked in, so you'll never pay more. For a long-term perspective, buying a license saves money compared with a recurring subscription, and gives access to all GoodBarber features, including paid extensions. ### What methods of payment are accepted for the One-time offer? Wire Transfer or direct debit. ### How many apps can I create with my Reseller account and at what price? You can create an unlimited number of apps from a dedicated management interface. The subscription is at a set price, allowing you to create 10 or 10,000 apps if you wish. Additional costs apply to distribute iOS apps on the App Store. ### Are there any additional costs for iOS? The reseller subscription allows an unlimited number of iOS apps. However, you must create an Apple developer account under the name of each client to publish their app on the App Store ($99/year). GoodBarber does not charge additional fees for iOS apps distributed outside the App Store via the Apple Developer Enterprise Program. If GoodBarber handles an App Store distribution request, a verification fee of $50/app applies (1st publication + 4 updates). ### Are there any additional costs for Android? Unlimited Android apps. You must create a Google Publisher account under the name of each client to publish on Google Play ($25 one-time fee). If you publish the app yourself, GoodBarber charges no fee. If the GoodBarber team handles the publication, there is a $50 fee (initial publication + 4 updates). ### Does the reseller offer white label apps? Yes, the White Label option is included in all Reseller subscriptions. Except for the Alpha Project, the GoodBarber brand won't appear on any apps nor any back office. ### Is it possible to build extra features on top of GoodBarber? Yes, for both content and eCommerce apps. As a Reseller, you can use "Custom code" sections to develop specific features (requires HTML, JavaScript, CSS skills). You can also access your app's hidden settings file for advanced design customization, set up automations via public APIs or no-code tools (Zapier and Make extensions connect apps to thousands of services like Gmail, Excel or Mailchimp), import content from other platforms via custom feeds, or rely on GoodBarber's team of experts for custom developments. ### How do I get help building my apps? Contact the support team via a ticketing system, directly from the back office of each app. As a Reseller, you also have access to an online training program with an Account Manager. ### How to organize and manage my apps? Resellers have access to a dashboard listing all their apps, where they can create new apps and view the publication status of each app on the different platforms (Web, Android and iOS). ### How do my clients manage their apps? You give your customers access to their app backend, choosing exactly which sections they can contribute to and which to restrict: sending push notifications, monitoring stats, creating ad campaigns, publishing content. ### Can I replace an existing app on the Stores with an app created with GoodBarber? Yes. Once you've built your app with GoodBarber, submit an update for that app to the Store. You (or your client) must own the Apple Developer and Google Publisher accounts used to publish the original app. End users simply update the app on their smartphone (no need to re-download). ### How should I price the apps I create? GoodBarber does not intervene in the business relationship between you and your client and takes no commission on your sales. You sell at the price you want. Account for app creation, regular updates, change requests during the year, and do market research on your target audience and competitors. ### What is the Alpha Project? When you create your reseller account, you must choose one project that becomes the leading project of your agency, called the alpha project. It cannot be modified after the creation of the agency and is never published. Its primary purpose is the billing of your agency (your Reseller subscription is attached to this project). The alpha project is not white label. ### Do you have a public API? For Shopping apps, a public API is available for inventory management, order management, shipment tracking and product catalog, enabling automation of clients' logistical tasks. ### Can I connect GoodBarber to Zapier? Yes. Zapier connects your clients' apps to several thousand external services and automates repetitive operations between GoodBarber apps and other tools (for example, a new user registered in a client's app can automatically be created in the client's Mailchimp account, and vice versa) — without writing a line of code. ### Do you provide custom developments? GoodBarber Service+ can develop custom modules for eCommerce apps: synchronize the product catalog with an external catalog, open new sales channels (Facebook/Instagram, Google Shopping), receive white label notifications (or SMS) for each order, issue invoices for offline payments, and connect your app via API with external tools. ### How to start testing the Reseller Account?

Here are our honest comparisons against the main no-code and AI platforms on the market. ## In short: which alternative should you choose? **For a native mobile app, published on the App Store and Google Play with built-in push, e-commerce and user accounts, GoodBarber is the direct path** — everything is included, with no third-party services to assemble. Mobile builders, web platforms and AI generators each answer a different need. The difference comes down to the actual output. ## GoodBarber vs the alternatives: the big picture The last column shows what each tool is designed for. | Platform | Native iOS & Android apps | Built-in push | Mobile e-commerce | Data in Europe | Designed mainly for… | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | GoodBarber | Compiled Swift + Kotlin | Up to 250,000/month | 22 gateways, 0% commission | EU servers | Native mobile apps, non-technical teams | | **Mobile no-code tools** | | | | | | | Adalo | Via native build | Via its own system | Partial | — | Mobile apps on a data-driven canvas | | Thunkable | Native claimed (disputed) | Via native features | No e-commerce | — | Block-based mobile apps, makers & education | | **Web & business platforms** | | | | | | | Bubble | Web / wrapper | Via plugins | Via plugins | — | No-code web apps, technical profiles | | Glide | Web & PWA | Removed in Dec. 2024 | No e-commerce | — | Internal web tools from data | | **AI app generators** | | | | | | | Base44 | AI-built web app | No native push | No e-commerce | — | All-in-one AI-generated web app | | Emergent | Generated full-stack app | No native push | No e-commerce | — | Full-stack prototyping by AI prompt | | Rork | Generated React Native | No native push | No e-commerce | — | AI mobile app generation | A summary comparison — every row is expanded, sourced and nuanced on its dedicated page. ◐ = partial / depending on configuration. New comparisons are added regularly. ## All comparisons, by category Grouped by tool type — the factor that changes the comparison the most. ### Mobile no-code tools - **GoodBarber vs Adalo** — A visual canvas driven by a database. The real question: scalability and total cost as the app grows. (https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/adalo/) - **GoodBarber vs Thunkable** — Block-based assembly inherited from MIT App Inventor, with a recent AI layer. The real question: the nature of the native output and long-term operation. (https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/thunkable/) ### Web & business platforms - **GoodBarber vs Bubble** — A web-first no-code platform aimed at technical profiles. GoodBarber targets the native mobile app for non-technical teams. (https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/bubble/) - **GoodBarber vs Glide** — Turns spreadsheets (Sheets, Airtable, SQL) into internal web tools. GoodBarber publishes real native apps on the stores. (https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/glide/) ### AI app generators - **GoodBarber vs Base44** — Generates an all-in-one web app with AI. GoodBarber produces a structured native app, published and built to last. (https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/base44/) - **GoodBarber vs Emergent** — Generates a full-stack app in minutes. GoodBarber is built to keep it running over time. (https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/emergent/) - **GoodBarber vs Rork** — Generates mobile apps (React Native) with AI. GoodBarber adds the full infrastructure: hosting, stores, back office. (https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/rork/) ## Where to start, based on your project Not sure which comparison to read first? Start from your need. - I'm coming from a spreadsheet or an internal tool → GoodBarber vs Glide - I'm hesitating with a powerful no-code web platform → GoodBarber vs Bubble - I'm comparing two mobile no-code tools → vs Adalo or vs Thunkable - I generated an app with AI and want to go to production → vs Base44, vs Emergent or vs Rork - I want a native app published on the stores → this is where GoodBarber stands out the most consistently - I manage several client apps (agency) → the Reseller program ## What GoodBarber brings, whatever the competitor Beyond each comparison, four constants come up against every platform. ### Real native apps A Swift + Kotlin binary, not a WebView.

It depends on what you want to produce. For a native mobile app published on the App Store and Google Play, with built-in push, e-commerce and user accounts, GoodBarber covers the whole need in a single subscription. If your project is a web app or an internal tool, platforms like Bubble or Glide are designed for that. Compare on your expected output (native app vs web) and on total cost, not just the entry price. ### Does GoodBarber create real native apps? Yes. GoodBarber compiles natively to Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android) from the back office — not a web wrapper. Apps are published on the App Store and Google Play, with a submission assistance service (GBTC) if needed. ### How much does GoodBarber cost compared to the alternatives? GoodBarber starts at €360/year (€30/month equivalent) — hosting, database, CMS, analytics and PWA included. Native iOS + Android output is available from €660/year (€55/month) with the Premium plan. The right comparison is total cost of ownership: GoodBarber includes in the subscription what other tools bill separately. ### Can you migrate to GoodBarber from another platform? Yes. Your data and content can be imported via the API and the CMS. The interface structure has to be reconfigured because architectures differ, but the back office is designed to make this step quick for non-technical teams. Each comparison page details the specific migration points. ### Are these comparisons neutral? We write honest comparisons: every competitor has use cases where it's the right choice, and we say so. Every claim is backed by verifiable data. The goal is to help you choose the tool that fits your project. ## Ready to build your native app? Start for free — no credit card.

(https://www.goodbarber.com/create/) --- # GoodBarber vs Adalo (2026): native apps, scalability and total cost compared Source: https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/adalo/ Native iOS & Android apps vs a database-driven no-code canvas: two approaches, two scalability ceilings. GoodBarber starts from a mobile experience to configure; Adalo starts from a data schema to model — and that difference at the entry point defines everything that follows. **GoodBarber** - Native iOS & Android apps (Swift + Kotlin) - Native push, 0% e-commerce, CMS, user accounts - 190+ extensions, CSS/HTML, AI Extension Builder - Hosting + database in Europe — all included **Adalo** - Multi-screen visual canvas + Postgres Collections - App Store & Google Play publishing (declared) - Hosting and database included - Limited scalability beyond ~5,000 users If you're building an app for thousands of users with monetization, native push and a long-term lifecycle, **GoodBarber meets these criteria from the base subscription**. If you need a fast visual prototyping tool around a database, Adalo is worth evaluating. ## GoodBarber vs Adalo: feature by feature Both platforms target projects without developers — but their internal architecture determines what you can build, how far you can go, and what you'll have to add separately. | Feature | GoodBarber | Adalo | What it means for you | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Native iOS & Android app | Compiled Swift + Kotlin binaries | Declared — runtime not publicly specified | GoodBarber publishes real native binaries; Adalo's output type isn't disclosed | | Progressive Web App | Included from the Standard plan | Included | Both cover the PWA use case | | Getting started without data modeling | Guided setup — extensions, CSS/HTML or an AI prompt as needed | Collections schema (Postgres) to define before building | GoodBarber starts from the experience; Adalo from the data schema | | Push notifications | Included, segmented, up to 250,000/month | Included (via "Announcements & Notifications") | Both offer push — GoodBarber natively integrated, Adalo through its notifications system | | Hosting & database | Included in all plans, data hosted in Europe | Included (Postgres via Collections) | Both include hosting; GoodBarber hosts in Europe — a concrete point for GDPR | | In-app purchases (StoreKit / Google Play Billing) | From the Premium plan (native Apple + Google flow) | Third-party IAPHUB integration required | GoodBarber natively integrates the store billing flow; Adalo delegates to an external service | | Mobile e-commerce with 0% commission | 22 gateways, 0% GoodBarber commission | E-commerce path via IAPHUB only | GoodBarber takes nothing from your revenue; Adalo depends on a third-party service | | Store publishing assistance | GBTC service — 91% recovery rate on Apple rejections | Not offered | GoodBarber can handle your App Store and Google Play submissions | | Production scalability | Infrastructure designed for growth | Degradation reported above ~5,000 users | For a growing project, the scalability question should be asked before choosing | | Data hosted in Europe | All data on EU servers | US-based servers (St. Louis, MO) | A concrete gap for projects subject to GDPR or targeting a European audience | | AI-ready (MCP server) | Manage your app through AI agents (Claude, Cursor…) | Not available | GoodBarber apps can be driven by any MCP-compatible assistant | | Components & extensions | 190+ extensions, one click from the back office | Marketplace with 50+ additional components | Both offer extensibility — GoodBarber with a catalog 3× larger | ## Three differences that change everything ### 1. Prototype canvas vs production infrastructure Adalo is built around a multi-screen canvas where you assemble views, wire actions and connect Postgres Collections. It's a powerful approach for the validation phase: you watch the app take shape screen by screen, database included. User reviews confirm the tool is valuable for MVPs and functional prototypes. But that same model shows its limits as the user base grows. Degraded performance above ~5,000 active users is documented in third-party reviews — a structural constraint that impacts projects aiming for growth. GoodBarber is built for the full lifecycle: launch, daily operation and scaling, without taking the team out of its back office. One download every 4 seconds — across 152 countries, since 2011. ### 2. Monetization: native flow vs third-party integration To monetize a mobile app through the stores — subscriptions, digital purchases, premium content — the technical standard is Apple StoreKit for iOS and Google Play Billing for Android. These flows handle billing, receipt validation and end-to-end store compliance. GoodBarber natively integrates both flows from the Premium plan. Adalo delegates this feature to IAPHUB, a third-party integration you configure and maintain separately. It's not a detail: every added layer is a dependency, a potential cost, and a friction point if store conditions change. For an app whose business model relies on in-app monetization, this architectural difference is structural. 0% GoodBarber commission on mobile e-commerce transactions — 22 gateways, online and offline payment. ### 3. Customization ceiling — with or without a starting point Adalo offers a flexible canvas: you start from scratch and assemble the blocks you choose. That freedom is real — and it comes with its flip side: every screen, every transition, every data binding is your responsibility. GoodBarber works differently. Navigation, content structure, push notifications, user accounts and e-commerce are pre-built and ready to configure. From that structured base, the customization ceiling stays very high: design tokens, CSS/HTML injection, 190+ extensions, and the AI Extension Builder (in Beta) that lets you create any custom section from a prompt — the generated code plugs straight into the GoodBarber APIs and ships in the native app. You don't start from scratch, but you can go very high. 190+ available extensions — plus the AI Extension Builder to create your custom sections from a prompt. ## The real cost, beyond the sticker price Adalo's price doesn't cover everything: publishing natively and selling in the app require **developer accounts, integrations and higher plans**. Here's what's included on each side. ### GoodBarber — from $30/month $30/month (billed annually): - Hosting and database (data in Europe) - CMS and back office - Push notifications (10,000/month) - Built-in analytics - PWA output - 0% commission on e-commerce transactions Native iOS + Android apps — from $55/month: - Native iOS + Android output (Swift + Kotlin) - Native in-app purchases (Apple StoreKit / Google Play Billing) - User authentication, loyalty, booking - 20 extensions included - App store submission assistance (GBTC) ### Adalo - Hosting and Postgres database included - Visual canvas and Collections in the subscription - Apple ($99/year) and Google ($25) developer accounts on you - In-app purchases via IAPHUB (separate third-party subscription) - White-label available from the Team plan ($128/month billed annually) - Scalability beyond ~5,000 users to validate depending on usage Adalo's current pricing is available at adalo.com/pricing. GoodBarber includes **hosting, push, analytics and store support** in its subscription. With Adalo, in-app monetization and publishing require additional subscriptions and setup. ## Which platform is right for you? ### Choose GoodBarber if… - You want a real native iOS and Android app published on the stores - Your app targets end users rather than internal use - You expect growth beyond a few thousand active users - You need in-app monetization without dependence on third-party services - Your team wants to run the app day to day from a structured back office without developers - GDPR compliance and hosting data in Europe matter to your business - You want custom features without hiring — the AI Extension Builder lets you create them from a prompt - You're an agency managing several client apps (Reseller program) ### Choose Adalo if… - You're quickly prototyping a data-driven app to validate a concept or present an MVP - Your project is driven by a founder or small team comfortable with data modeling - Your target user base stays below a few thousand active people - You don't need native in-app monetization right now ## Frequently asked questions ### Is GoodBarber better than Adalo? It depends on your project phase and growth needs. GoodBarber is built for mobile apps in production — with infrastructure that scales, native in-app monetization and integrated store assistance. Adalo excels at validation phases: its visual canvas and Postgres database let you build a functional prototype quickly. If your goal is an app published on the stores, operated daily and meant to grow, GoodBarber is the most direct route. ### Does Adalo produce real native iOS and Android apps? Adalo states it publishes to the App Store and Google Play from a single project, but doesn't publicly specify whether its apps are compiled in native Swift/Kotlin or produced via a hybrid framework. GoodBarber compiles natively to Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android) from the same back office — real binaries, with full access to OS features and native performance. ### How much does GoodBarber cost compared to Adalo? GoodBarber starts at $360/year ($30/month equivalent) — hosting, database in Europe, CMS, analytics, PWA and push included. Native iOS + Android apps are available from $660/year ($55/month) with the Premium plan, native in-app monetization included. Adalo offers a Starter plan at $36/month (or $28.80/month billed annually), but in-app monetization requires IAPHUB on top, and Apple/Google developer accounts are on you. The right comparison is total cost of ownership, not the subscription line alone. ### Is GoodBarber limited in customization compared to Adalo? No. GoodBarber starts from a structured base — pre-built navigation, push, CMS, e-commerce — and exposes a very high customization ceiling: design tokens, CSS/HTML, 190+ extensions, and the AI Extension Builder (in Beta) to create custom sections from a prompt. You don't assemble the blocks from scratch, but you can go as far as a project demands — without hiring a developer. ### Can you migrate from Adalo to GoodBarber? Your content and user data can be imported through GoodBarber's API and CMS. The interface structure will need to be reconfigured — the two platforms have fundamentally different architectures. The GoodBarber back office is designed to make this transition fast for non-technical teams: the most common app structures are ready to configure without custom development. ### Is GoodBarber suitable for building community or loyalty apps? Yes. User authentication, messaging, segmented push, loyalty cards, coupons and punch cards are included in the Premium plan. These features are pre-built and configurable from the back office — without third-party integration. GoodBarber has been building for these use cases since 2011. ## Ready to build your native app? Start for free — no credit card. Your app, published on the App Store and Google Play, with everything included. (https://www.goodbarber.com/create/) --- # GoodBarber vs AppSheet (2026): consumer app vs internal business tool compared Source: https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/appsheet/ Consumer mobile app vs internal data-driven business tool: two no-code tools that answer two different questions. AppSheet builds internal tools from your business data. GoodBarber publishes consumer apps under your brand in the stores. The real question isn't "no-code or not", it's: who is the app for? **GoodBarber** - Native iOS & Android apps under your brand (Swift + Kotlin) - Push to external users, 0% e-commerce, editorial CMS - 190+ extensions, CSS/HTML, AI Extension Builder - Hosting in Europe + database + stores — one subscription **AppSheet** - Google's no-code tool for internal business processes - Deep Google Workspace integration - Data source required before you can build - No public store listing under your brand If your app is for customers who download it from the stores, GoodBarber is the direct path. If it's for your internal teams and your data already lives in Google Sheets, AppSheet is worth a serious look. ## GoodBarber vs AppSheet: feature by feature AppSheet assumes authenticated colleagues in an organization; GoodBarber, anonymous customers in a public marketplace. The table below starts from that divergence. | Feature | GoodBarber | AppSheet | What it means for you | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Native iOS & Android app | Compiled Swift + Kotlin binaries, store listing under your brand | Container app (AppSheet brand) or private APK/IPA | Only GoodBarber publishes an independent app under your name, with your icon and your store page | | Progressive Web App | Included from the Standard plan | Not documented as a native output | If you also target the web, GoodBarber generates the PWA from the same back-office | | Target user | Consumer — anonymous users, public downloads | Internal — authenticated members, private distribution | This is the founding difference: who the app serves determines everything else | | Setup without technical skills | Guided setup — deep customization via extensions, CSS/HTML or AI prompt | Fast, but a database must exist first | GoodBarber starts from the experience; AppSheet starts from the structured data schema | | Push notifications (consumer users) | Segmented campaigns to your external end-users | Internal authenticated users only | To re-engage customers who downloaded your app, GoodBarber's push covers this case — AppSheet doesn't | | Editorial CMS back-office | Purpose-built for non-technical editors | Content lives in connected spreadsheets | Publishing an article or guide doesn't mean editing a spreadsheet | | E-commerce / checkout | Included, 0% commission, 22 payment gateways | No built-in module | To sell in-app, GoodBarber covers the full flow; AppSheet has no catalog and no checkout | | Hosting & database | Included, data hosted in Europe | Included (Google Cloud), native DB or connected external source | Both include infrastructure; GoodBarber hosts in Europe — a concrete point for GDPR | | Store publishing assistance | GBTC service — 91% recovery rate on Apple rejections | Not applicable (no consumer listing) | Apple rejects ~42% of first submissions; our team can handle that process for you | | Google Workspace integration | Partial — no native Sheets/Drive connection | Deep — Sheets, Drive, Gmail, Calendar, Docs | If your organization runs on Google Workspace, AppSheet plugs in without friction | | Field operations (barcode, NFC, GPS, offline) | Partial via extensions | Native — inventory, inspections, signatures, photos | For mobile data capture in field environments, AppSheet has real depth | | Pricing model | Per app — €30/mo entry, €55/mo for native | Per user ($10/user/mo Core) or $50/mo/app | Per-user pricing becomes unworkable the moment thousands of anonymous users arrive | ## Three differences that change everything ### 1. Consumer app under your brand vs internal app in the AppSheet container AppSheet distributes its apps inside its container app (published under the AppSheet brand) or as a private APK/IPA for internal distribution — an approach designed for defined teams within an organization. It is not the right tool for an app that customers discover and download from the stores. GoodBarber compiles to Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android): your app publishes independently, under your name, with your icon and your own store page. Our GBTC service handles the Apple review process — a process that rejects approximately 42% of first submissions. 91% recovery rate on apps rejected by Apple on first submission — handled by our GBTC team (last 12 months). ### 2. Push, CMS, e-commerce: operating a consumer app, not just automating a workflow AppSheet excels at mobilizing a process: forms, triggers, data sync inside Google Workspace. But push there is reserved for internal authenticated users, content lives in spreadsheets, and there is no product catalog or checkout flow. Running a consumer app sits outside its scope. GoodBarber includes these three layers natively in one subscription: segmented push campaigns to your external end-users, a CMS designed for non-technical editors, and a full e-commerce checkout. This is the daily work of operating an app, not just launching one. 0% GoodBarber commission on mobile e-commerce transactions — 22 payment gateways, online and offline. ### 3. Deep customization — without modeling a spreadsheet first AppSheet imposes a starting constraint: a data source must exist before you can build a single screen. Every piece of content — text, image, logic — lives first in a spreadsheet or connected database. That's coherent for structured business data; it's a drag for a branded visual identity and editorial content. GoodBarber ships a formalized design system — the first app builder to structure a real no-code design system. From that foundation you customize at every level: design tokens, CSS/HTML injection, 190+ extensions, and the AI Extension Builder (in Beta) that builds any custom section by prompt — the generated code connects to GoodBarber's APIs and ships in your native app. The ceiling is high: you don't have to structure a data schema to reach it. 190+ extensions available — plus the AI Extension Builder to create your sections by prompt. ## The real cost: what's in the price The subscription price doesn't tell the whole story — especially when the two tools don't bill by the same unit. ### GoodBarber — from €30/month €30/month (annual billing): - Hosting and database (data in Europe) - CMS and editorial back-office - Push notifications (10,000/month) - Built-in analytics - PWA output - 0% commission on transactions Native iOS + Android apps — from €55/month: - Native iOS + Android output (Swift + Kotlin) - In-app purchases (Apple StoreKit / Google Play Billing) - User authentication, loyalty, booking - 20 extensions included - Store publishing assistance (GBTC) - Unlimited number of end-users ### AppSheet $10/user/month (Core): - Core plan included in most paid Google Workspace accounts - Cost grows with each user — 200 people = $2,000/month - Publisher Pro ($50/mo/app): without consumer push, e-commerce, or store listing under your brand - Branded APK/IPA redistribution required every 18 months AppSheet's current pricing is available at about.appsheet.com/pricing. AppSheet's per-user pricing is predictable for a defined internal team. For a consumer app with thousands of anonymous users, GoodBarber's per-app subscription covers the whole stack — push, CMS, e-commerce, stores — without billing per user. ## Which platform is right for you? ### Choose GoodBarber if… - You want a consumer app published under your brand on the App Store and Google Play - Your app serves anonymous external users — customers, not employees - You manage content, push, and e-commerce from a back-office, not a spreadsheet - Your app includes e-commerce and you want 0% commission - You want custom features built by prompt (AI Extension Builder) - GDPR compliance and data hosting in Europe matter - You want your entire stack in one subscription - You're an agency managing multiple client apps ### Choose AppSheet if… - You're building an internal tool distributed privately within your organization - Your organization runs on Google Workspace and you read/write to Sheets, Drive, or connected databases - Your use case involves field operations: inventory, inspections, barcodes, NFC, GPS, offline - Your user base is a defined, authenticated group where per-user pricing stays manageable ## Frequently asked questions ### Is GoodBarber better than AppSheet? It depends on who uses your app. AppSheet is built to mobilize an internal business process — inspections, inventory, CRM — for an authenticated team, especially in a Google Workspace environment. GoodBarber is built to publish a consumer mobile app under your brand, operated daily by a non-technical team with push, CMS, and e-commerce. If your users are customers who download your app, GoodBarber is the direct path. ### Can AppSheet publish an app to the App Store and Google Play under my own brand? Not through the standard workflow. AppSheet apps are distributed inside the AppSheet container app (under the AppSheet brand) or as a private APK/IPA for internal distribution. Publishing an independent consumer app under your own brand in the stores is not AppSheet's designed use case. GoodBarber compiles natively to Swift and Kotlin and publishes your app under your name, with your icon and your store page. ### Does AppSheet support push notifications for a consumer app? AppSheet's push is designed for internal authenticated users, not for the anonymous external users of a consumer app. If your app needs to send promotional or editorial campaigns to customers who downloaded it, AppSheet doesn't cover this case. GoodBarber includes segmented push to your end-users from the Standard plan. ### How much does GoodBarber cost compared to AppSheet? GoodBarber starts at €360/year (€30/month equivalent) — hosting in Europe, CMS, analytics, PWA, and push included. Native iOS + Android apps are available from €660/year (€55/month) with the Premium plan, for an unlimited number of end-users. AppSheet bills per user ($10/user/month at Core): predictable for a small internal team, unworkable for a consumer app with thousands of anonymous users. The right comparison is total cost of ownership, not the base subscription line. ### What's the difference between AppSheet and GoodBarber for e-commerce? AppSheet has no built-in e-commerce or payment module: no product catalog, no checkout flow. GoodBarber includes a full e-commerce layer with 0% commission on transactions and 22 payment gateways in every eCommerce Apps plan. For an app that sells to its users, that's a structural difference in architecture. ### Can you migrate from AppSheet to GoodBarber? Your content and data can be imported via GoodBarber's API and CMS — including from an export of your spreadsheets. The app structure will need to be rebuilt: AppSheet starts from a data schema, GoodBarber from an experience to configure. GoodBarber's back-office is designed to make this step fast for non-technical teams. ## Ready to build your native app? Start for free — no credit card. Your consumer app, published under your brand on the App Store and Google Play, with everything included. (https://www.goodbarber.com/create/) --- # GoodBarber vs Base44 (2026): AI-generated web app vs operable native app, compared Source: https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/base44/ A web app generated in conversation with an AI, or a native app built to last. Base44 — acquired by Wix in June 2025 for $80 million — is a prompt-driven app generator: you chat with an AI, and the platform produces a working web application. GoodBarber compiles real native iOS and Android apps, publishes them on the stores, and gives your team the back-office to keep them alive over time. **GoodBarber** - Native iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) binaries, published on the App Store and Google Play - Structured back-office: CMS, push, accounts, e-commerce, analytics - Flat subscription from $30/month — hosting and quotas included, no credits - 190+ extensions, CSS/HTML, AI Extension Builder (Beta) **Base44** - Responsive web apps — no native iOS/Android binary - Conversational building: you describe, the AI generates, you re-prompt - Message-credit + integration-credit pricing ($16 to $160/month) - No native push, no in-app purchases, no pre-wired mobile navigation If you want to quickly generate an internal web tool or an MVP that lives in a browser, Base44 was built exactly for that. If your project needs to exist as a native app on your users' iPhone and Android, with push, in-app purchases and a non-technical team running it, GoodBarber is the right call. ## GoodBarber vs Base44: feature by feature What each platform includes, and what it changes for your project. | Feature | GoodBarber | Base44 | What it means for you | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Native iOS & Android app | Swift + Kotlin binaries compiled from the back-office | Web app opened in the browser — the "mobile version" goes through add-to-home-screen | On a user's iPhone, the Base44 icon opens a website; the GoodBarber icon opens a real native application | | Progressive Web App | Included, generated from the same configuration | Responsive website, can be added to the home screen | Both work in the browser — GoodBarber isn't limited to it | | Native push notifications | Included, segmented, up to 250,000/month depending on plan | Not natively supported at this stage | On Base44, true iOS push (badge, sound, background delivery) isn't available — a major engagement channel missing on mobile | | In-app purchases (StoreKit / Play Billing) | Integrated, configurable in the back-office | Not supported | If you sell subscriptions or digital content in the app, Apple and Google mandate their billing circuit — Base44 doesn't wire it | | Prompt-based creation | AI Extension Builder (Beta) to generate custom sections in a structured app | Core of the product — the whole app is built by conversation with the AI | Both leverage generative AI — Base44 to build from scratch, GoodBarber to extend an already structured base | | Back-office for daily operation | CMS, push, accounts, e-commerce, analytics — dedicated visual interfaces | Editing mainly via the chat box; data structure inferred by the AI | Updating a listing, segmenting a push or processing an order: with GoodBarber it's a click; with Base44 it's often a new prompt | | Hosting & database | Included in every plan, flat price | Included, but usage counted in "integration credits" (2,000 to 50,000/month) | GoodBarber: identical bill every month. Base44: integration consumption limits what the app can do before having to move up a plan | | User authentication | Accounts, social login, loyalty, chat, segments | Authentication available from project launch | Both cover this need — GoodBarber adds the ready-to-use marketing building blocks (segments, loyalty, coupons) | | Store-publishing support | GBTC service — 91% recovery on Apple rejections | "Web view" logic for the stores, no native pipeline | Base44 wasn't built to pass Apple review as a native application; GoodBarber was, and our team handles the submission | | Mobile e-commerce | Catalog, cart, 22 payment gateways, 0% GoodBarber commission | To be built in the web app, with no pre-wired circuit | To sell in the app, GoodBarber gives the full engine; Base44 leaves you to assemble it from the AI and integrations | | Deep customization / code | CSS, HTML, 190+ extensions, AI Extension Builder (Beta) | In-app code editing from paid plans, GitHub from Builder onward | Both let you touch the code — GoodBarber within a structured base, Base44 within a fully generated web app | | Pricing model | Flat subscription: $30/month (PWA) to $135/month (Pro) | Credits: $16/month (100 messages) to $160/month (1,200 messages), free plan at 25 messages | The Base44 bill depends on your prompt iteration pace; GoodBarber's is known upfront | | Data hosted in Europe | All data on EU servers — GDPR-native | Wix infrastructure (Israeli group, hosting mostly outside the EU) | For a regulated sector or a European market sensitive to GDPR, data sovereignty changes the case | | Ideal profile | Media, brands, retail, agencies, services that need to operate the app daily | Solo founders, internal teams, prototypers who want a web tool delivered in hours | The right choice depends on the final deliverable — an AI-driven business web tool, or a native app published on the stores | ## Three differences that change everything ### 1. An icon that opens a website, or a real app on the iPhone It's the question people avoid when talking about generative AI: what, concretely, ends up on your user's phone? Base44 produces a web application. Excellent for an internal tool or an MVP you can show an investor tomorrow, it's added to the home screen via the browser — its "app" mode on the stores relies on web-view logic, with no native push notifications or in-app purchases in the Apple/Google sense. GoodBarber compiles to Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android from your back-office, and our GBTC team can take over the submission all the way to publication. It's a different kind of object, with a different kind of presence on the phone — and a different level of user trust. One download every 4 seconds on GoodBarber native apps, since 2011. ### 2. A team that runs the app daily, without going back through the conversation Base44 puts the AI at the center: you describe, the AI generates, you re-prompt to fix or enrich. For the build phase, it's fast. But once the app is in production, every content adjustment, every label fix, every new push segment goes — by design — through the same conversational channel and consumes message credits. The data structure itself is inferred by the AI, which makes fine-grained editing less predictable. GoodBarber separates two moments. Creation happens in the back-office, with the AI Extension Builder for custom sections if needed. Operation — publishing an article, sending a push to a segment, adding a product, reading the day's sales — goes through dedicated screens, designed so an editorial, marketing or sales team can act without depending on a prompt or a counter. A back-office interface available in 16 languages — for local teams operating in their own language. ### 3. A platform backed by Wix, or a platform built for the mobile app since 2011 Base44's acquisition by Wix in June 2025, for $80 million in cash, is a strong signal about the product's trajectory: resources, distribution, integration into Wix's Vibe Coding ecosystem. It's a web trajectory — Wix's historical DNA. GoodBarber has a different DNA: since 2011, the object built is a native mobile application, published on the stores. That translates into an end-to-end iOS and Android pipeline, a back-office optimized for multi-app and teams, and native mobile features — segmented push, geofences, in-app purchases, vertical business modules — that aren't integrations added afterwards but the core of the product. And above that base, the ceiling stays high: **190+ extensions** in the Store, accessible CSS and HTML, and the **AI Extension Builder** to generate custom sections by prompt — the speed of AI, in a base made for mobile. 15 years building a native iOS + Android pipeline, not an integration added afterwards. ## The real cost, beyond the sticker price Base44 bills on **two parallel counters** — message credits and integration credits — that drain with usage. Here, line by line, is what each price covers. ### GoodBarber — from $30/month $30/month (annual billing — $360/year): - Hosting and database (data in Europe) - Full CMS and back-office - Push notifications (10,000/month on the entry plan) - Built-in analytics - PWA output - 0% commission on e-commerce transactions Native iOS + Android apps — from $55/month (annual Premium — $660/year): - Native iOS + Android output (Swift + Kotlin) - In-app purchases (Apple StoreKit / Google Play Billing) - User authentication, loyalty, booking - 20 extensions included - Store-publishing support (GBTC) ### Base44 - Free plan: 25 message credits, 100 integration credits/month - Starter — $16/month: 100 messages, 2,000 integrations - Builder — $40/month: 250 messages, 10,000 integrations + GitHub + domain - Pro — $80/month: 500 messages, 20,000 integrations - Elite — $160/month: 1,200 messages, 50,000 integrations - No native push, no in-app purchases, no store pipeline - Annual prices shown (~20% saving vs monthly) Base44's current pricing is available at base44.com/pricing. With GoodBarber, you operate your app without watching a counter. With Base44, every message to the AI and every integration call eats into a quota — and the app lives in the browser, not on the phone. ## Which platform is right for you? ### Choose GoodBarber if… - Your project must exist as a real native iOS and Android application on the stores, not as a web shortcut - You need segmented push notifications that arrive even when the app is closed — a real mobile engagement channel - You sell or plan to sell in the app, with in-app purchases or e-commerce and 0% GoodBarber commission - Your editorial, marketing or sales team must be able to run the app daily without going back through a prompt - You want a budget known in advance, with no message- or integration-credit counter - You need custom sections but prefer to generate them within a structured base (AI Extension Builder) - Hosting data in Europe is a requirement for your market or your compliance - You're an agency operating multiple client apps (Reseller program) ### Choose Base44 if… - You're building a business web tool, an internal dashboard or an MVP deliverable within the day - You're comfortable with iterating in conversation with the AI to evolve the product - Your target mostly uses a desktop browser or a home-screen shortcut — not intensive mobile usage - The Wix ecosystem (domains, distribution, marketing integrations) is already your reference environment ## Frequently asked questions ### Is GoodBarber better than Base44? Not in absolute terms — the two tools don't produce the same thing. Base44 excels at generating a complete web application in conversation with an AI, with hosting, database and authentication already wired; it's a prompt-driven web generation tool, now backed by Wix. GoodBarber excels at compiling real native iOS and Android apps, publishing them on the stores, and giving a non-technical team the screens to keep them alive. The useful question isn't "which is better" but "what you deliver to your users: a website or a native app?". ### Does Base44 publish to the App Store and Google Play? Base44 produces web applications. The "mobile presence" mainly goes through add-to-home-screen from the browser, and store submission relies on web-view logic — not a compiled native binary. Some purely native features, such as system-delivered push notifications or full offline mode, aren't natively supported at this stage. GoodBarber, conversely, compiles in Swift and Kotlin and goes through our GBTC service for submission — 91% recovery on apps initially rejected by Apple. ### How much does GoodBarber cost compared to Base44? GoodBarber starts at $360/year ($30/month equivalent) for the PWA, with hosting, CMS, push and analytics included. Native iOS + Android output comes at $660/year ($55/month) on the Premium plan, store support included. Base44 starts at $16/month (Starter, 100 message credits + 2,000 integration credits), rises to $40/month for the Builder plan, and tops out at $160/month for Elite (1,200 messages / 50,000 integrations). At comparable advertised budgets, you're comparing two different deliverables: an AI-driven web app, or a native app published on the stores. ### What does Base44's acquisition by Wix change for my project? Wix acquired Base44 in June 2025 for $80 million in cash, plus performance-based earn-outs through 2029. In practice, Base44 continues to exist as a distinct product, integrated into Wix's "Vibe Coding" offering. For a web project that fits into the Wix ecosystem (domains, marketing, distribution), it's coherent. For a native mobile app project published on the stores, Base44 remains a web generation tool — and the Wix backing doesn't change the nature of the deliverable. ### How does a non-technical team keep the app alive day to day on Base44? On Base44, the AI is the main editing channel: the data structure itself is inferred by the AI, and most changes go through the chat box (consuming message credits), with Visual Edit for targeted tweaks. It's very fluid for iterating on form. For high-volume operations — publishing ten articles a week, segmenting a push, processing orders — a back-office with dedicated screens remains faster and more predictable. Ours is designed exactly for those teams. ### Can you migrate a Base44 app to GoodBarber? The content and database of a Base44 project are exportable (the platform exposes the data structures and, from the Builder plan, a GitHub integration). On the GoodBarber side, the app isn't a port of web code: it's reconfigured in the back-office, where your catalog, articles and user accounts are imported via our API and the CMS. For a non-technical team, this reconfiguration is usually faster than maintaining an exported web app by hand. ## Ready to go from an idea to a real native app? Start for free — no credit card.

(https://www.goodbarber.com/create/) --- # GoodBarber vs Bolt.new (2026): code generator vs managed platform, compared Source: https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/bolt/ Bolt.new generates a production-grade codebase, exportable to GitHub — for developers. GoodBarber compiles real native iOS and Android apps, and gives you the back-office to run them without ever opening a code editor. The in-browser code generator versus the all-in-one European platform: what really separates them, beyond owning the code. **GoodBarber** - Native iOS & Android apps (Swift + Kotlin) - Purpose-built CMS, segmented push, accounts, e-commerce, analytics — each action has its own screen, no database schema, no external integration - Flat subscription from €30/month — hosting, database, push, and EU data hosting included, no per-seat pricing - 190+ extensions, CSS/HTML, AI Extension Builder **Bolt.new** - Full source code, exportable and synced to GitHub — you own everything, no lock-in at the code level - Real developer ecosystem: Figma import, 170+ Bolt Connectors, Design System Agents, choice of Claude Opus, Sonnet, or Haiku - Generates a web app (React, Next.js, Vue…); mobile runs through React Native via Expo, deployment pipeline on you - Token-based pricing; CMS, push, and payment go through third-party services to wire and pay for separately Own and export a codebase: Bolt.new. A native app published on the stores, run daily by a team with no developer: GoodBarber. ## GoodBarber vs Bolt.new: feature by feature What each platform does — and what it means for your project. | Feature | GoodBarber | Bolt.new | What it means for you | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Native iOS & Android app | Swift + Kotlin binaries compiled from the back-office | Web app by default; mobile via React Native + Expo, deployment pipeline on you | With Bolt, installing the local toolchain (Node.js, EAS CLI), opening Apple and Google accounts, and signing the code is your project; GoodBarber handles the native pipeline through to the store | | App Store publishing assistance | GBTC service available | On you — developer accounts ($99/yr Apple, $25 Google), certificates, manual submissions | Bolt generates the code but stops at the store boundary; GBTC handles Apple rejections with a 91% recovery rate | | Web / PWA | PWA engine included, from the same config | Not native — via third-party integration (Progressier) | Both can cover the web; on Bolt, the installable PWA format requires wiring an external service | | Hosting & database | Included in the subscription | Included (Bolt Cloud + databases) | No third-party service to wire on either side — the difference is data location and price predictability | | Push notifications | Included, segmented, up to 250,000/month | Not shipped — third-party service required (Progressier) | On Bolt, push adds an account, a configuration, and a monthly cost absent from the pricing page; with us, it's a module you switch on from the back-office | | CMS / content management | Purpose-built integrated interface | Content lives in the source code | On Bolt, updating content after launch means a code change and a redeployment, or an external headless CMS to manage on top | | Back-office for daily operations | Full management interface, localized in 16 languages | None — post-launch tasks go through code or third-party dashboards | Sending a push to a segment or publishing an article is a field to edit with us; on Bolt, it's a commit or an external tool to learn | | E-commerce / payments | Included, 0% GoodBarber commission, 22 gateways | Via Stripe integration (external, transaction fees, separate Stripe interface) | To manage orders and payments daily, GoodBarber exposes a single flow; on Bolt, you juggle several dashboards | | Custom feature creation | AI Extension Builder (Beta) — custom sections generated by prompt, wired to our APIs | Core of the product — the whole app is generated and modified by prompt, code accessible | Both use generative AI — Bolt to build and hand over all the code, GoodBarber to extend an already-structured foundation | | Code ownership / export | Managed platform, native binaries (no code export) | Full ownership, export and two-way GitHub sync | If code portability and the absence of lock-in are strategic, Bolt meets that need natively | | Developer ecosystem | Extensions, MCP, APIs — designed for operators | Figma import, 170+ Bolt Connectors, Design System Agents, Claude model switching | Bolt speaks first to a tooled-up technical profile; GoodBarber speaks to the team that runs the app | | Pricing model | Flat subscription (€30/month to €135/month) | Token-based: free plan (1M/mo), Pro $25/mo (10M/mo), Teams $30/member | On Bolt, iterative development on a complex feature depletes the allocation fast; with us, the subscription pays for the app, not the volume of AI round-trips | | Data hosted in Europe | All data on EU servers — GDPR by default | US infrastructure | For a regulated sector or a GDPR-sensitive European market, data sovereignty changes the case | | AI-ready (MCP server) | Open-source MCP server + 30 Claude Skills — the app is operated by Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT | Built with AI, not operated by third-party agents once shipped | Beyond generation, GoodBarber lets an AI agent operate the app daily (content, push, orders) | | Best fit | Editorial teams, local businesses, agencies operating the app without a developer | Developers, technical product teams, web projects with strong code-portability needs | The right choice depends on who takes over after the first version — and what that person has to do each week | ## Three differences that change everything ### 1. Owning the generated code is not running the product What Bolt gives you is real: full ownership of the code, freely exportable to GitHub, forever yours. For a developer validating an idea before handing it to an engineering team, or for an internal tool maintained by a technical person, that model makes complete sense. But owning a codebase and operating a product are two different jobs. A month after launch, someone needs to publish new content on Thursday, send a push for a weekend promotion, process a return, and submit a store update — and in a Bolt-generated codebase, each of those tasks routes through a code change, a redeployment, or a third-party dashboard learned separately. GoodBarber inverts the logic: we don't hand you the code, we give you the product already operable. The back-office covers every daily task — a field to edit, not a commit to push. It's designed for the team that keeps the app alive, not only the one that launches it. One download every 4 seconds — on apps we've operated since 2011, not handed back as code. ### 2. The store pipeline is on you — or handled for you Bolt's mobile path runs through Expo and React Native, and its documentation is honest about what that requires: Node.js, EAS CLI, and Git installed locally, an Apple Developer account at $99/year, a Google Play account at $25, signing certificates to configure, and manual submissions to App Store Connect and the Google Play Console. Bolt generates the code; the entire pipeline that leads to the store stays on your side — and without a support team to navigate a rejection, you handle it alone. GoodBarber compiles to pure Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android, from the back-office configuration, with no JavaScript bridge or third-party runtime. The pipeline goes through to the store: our GBTC team can handle the submission, manage Apple's review process, recover a rejected build, and get the app live — without you configuring a single certificate. 91% of rejected iOS submissions recovered by GBTC — while 42% of first-time submissions are rejected by Apple. ### 3. Customization: not a choice between coding everything or customizing nothing Bolt's argument is the freedom of code: generated, exportable, editable line by line, extendable by any developer. That's powerful if you have the technical team to keep it alive. It's a debt if you don't, because every change demands either a new prompt that consumes tokens, or a manual intervention in the repo. GoodBarber frames it differently. The structured foundation — Smart Design, navigation, CMS, accounts, push, payment — saves you weeks of plumbing. Above it, the ceiling stays high: CSS and HTML injection, 190+ extensions in the Store, and the AI Extension Builder (in Beta) that generates any custom section by prompt — the resulting code wires to our APIs and lands in your native app, without starting from a blank page or watching a token meter for every specific need. 190+ extensions in the Store, plus the AI Extension Builder to generate any custom section by prompt. ## The real cost: what's in the price The headline subscription tells only part of the story — and even less when a token meter paces your iterations and push, CMS, and payment all run through third-party services wired in parallel. ### GoodBarber — from $30/month $30/month (billed annually): - Hosting and database (data in Europe) - CMS and back office - Push notifications (10,000/month) - Built-in analytics - PWA output - 0% commission on e-commerce transactions Native iOS + Android apps — from $55/month: - Native iOS + Android output (Swift + Kotlin) - Native in-app purchases (Apple StoreKit / Google Play Billing) - User authentication, loyalty, booking - 20 extensions included - App store submission assistance (GBTC) ### Bolt.new — base subscription + tokens + third-party services - Free plan: 1M tokens/month (300K daily limit). Pro at $25/month — 10M tokens/month, unused tokens roll over, custom domain. Teams at $30/member/month; Enterprise on quote - Hosting and database included (Bolt Cloud), but push (Progressier), headless CMS, and e-commerce (Stripe, transaction fees) to wire and pay for separately - Iterative development on a complex feature depletes the token allocation fast - Infrastructure and data hosted in the United States Bolt.new's current pricing is available at bolt.new/pricing. With GoodBarber, your subscription pays for a full operational stack on a single invoice, whether you touch the app ten times a day or once a month. With Bolt, the subscription pays for tokens — and push, CMS, and payment arrive as separate bills the pricing page doesn't show. ## Which platform is right for you? ### Choose GoodBarber if… - You want real native iOS and Android apps published on the stores, with a hand for submission - You're a non-technical operator — publisher, retailer, local authority, nonprofit — managing content, push, and e-commerce from an interface, not a code repo - You're building for the long term: an app operated daily, updated regularly, that must evolve over years - You sell (or plan to sell) inside the app and want 0% commission on transactions, with 22 integrated payment gateways - Your budget needs to be predictable — not indexed on tokens consumed or third-party services added on the side - You need custom features but prefer to generate them by prompt inside a structured foundation rather than maintain a GitHub repo (AI Extension Builder) - Hosting data in Europe is a requirement for your market or compliance - You're an agency operating several client apps (Reseller program) ### Choose Bolt.new if… - You're building a web application — a site, a tool, a web product — rather than a native mobile app for store distribution - You want to move very fast on a prototype or MVP; Bolt is among the fastest on the market for first build - You're comfortable with code, or a developer will take over after the generation phase - Code portability is strategic: you want to own everything, export it to GitHub, and extend or hand it off freely - Figma import, two-way GitHub sync, and the 170+ Bolt Connectors matter in your workflow ## Frequently asked questions ### Is GoodBarber better than Bolt.new? Not in absolute terms — the two tools answer different needs. Bolt.new is one of the fastest code generators on the market: production-grade code, Figma import, GitHub sync, full ownership of the result. For a technical team that wants to move fast and keep control of the code, it's a serious choice. GoodBarber answers a different question: produce a real native app published on the stores and run it daily with a non-technical team — editing content, sending push, selling, submitting updates — without ever reopening a code editor. ### Does Bolt.new create real native iOS and Android apps? Bolt.new generates web applications by default. Native mobile distribution is possible via Expo and React Native, but the full deployment pipeline — Apple Developer account, Google Play account, signing certificates, EAS CLI, manual submissions — is on you. Without developer skills, that process is very hard to complete. GoodBarber compiles to pure Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android, and our GBTC service handles the submission with a 91% recovery rate on apps initially rejected by Apple. ### What's the difference between Bolt.new's token pricing and GoodBarber's subscription? Bolt.new charges by token consumption: the Pro plan includes 10M tokens per month at $25. In practice, iterative development on a complex feature depletes that allocation fast. GoodBarber charges a fixed monthly subscription (from €30/month for the PWA, €55/month for native iOS + Android) that covers all usage without variability — you know what you pay each month, whether you touch the app ten times a day or once a month. ### Does Bolt.new include a CMS and push notifications? No. Content in a Bolt-generated app lives in the source code: updating it after launch means a code change and a redeployment, or connecting an external headless CMS. Push isn't native and requires a third-party service like Progressier, with a separate account and billing. GoodBarber includes a structured back-office CMS and push campaigns in every plan, directly from the back-office, with no external service to wire. ### Is GoodBarber a good fit for developers who want code access? GoodBarber is a managed platform and does not expose the source code. If full code ownership is a requirement — because a developer team will extend the app, or because portability is a priority — Bolt.new is the more appropriate choice. GoodBarber is designed for operators who want a managed product they can run daily, not a codebase to maintain. ### Can you migrate from a Bolt.new app to GoodBarber? Bolt code is exportable to GitHub, and content stored in the database or wired third-party services (headless CMS, Stripe…) is exportable in standard formats. On GoodBarber's side, the app isn't a port of the generated React code: it's reconfigured in the back-office, where your content, products, and user accounts are imported via our API and CMS. For a non-technical team, that reconfiguration is generally faster than maintaining an exported codebase. ## Ready to run an app, not just own its code? Start for free — no credit card. Your native iOS and Android apps, published on the App Store and Google Play, with a back-office built to keep them alive every day — no token meter, no third-party services to assemble. (https://www.goodbarber.com/create/) --- # GoodBarber vs Bubble (2026): native apps, pricing and features compared Source: https://www.goodbarber.com/vs/bubble/ Native iOS & Android apps vs web-first no-code: two platforms that don't solve the same problem. Two no-code platforms, two different philosophies — and above all, two kinds of output that aren't interchangeable. **Choosing starts with knowing which output you expect.** **GoodBarber** - Native iOS & Android apps (Swift + Kotlin) - Native push, e-commerce, user accounts, CMS - Extensions, CSS/HTML, AI Extension Builder - Hosting + database + stores — all included **Bubble** - Web applications (no native output by default) - Full control over the data structure - Complex custom business logic - Requires a technical team from the start If your goal is **an app downloadable from the App Store and Google Play**, GoodBarber is the direct route. If your goal is a complex web application driven by a technical team, Bubble is worth evaluating. ## GoodBarber vs Bubble: feature by feature Both tools are no-code, but their outputs are fundamentally different. | Feature | GoodBarber | Bubble | What it means for you | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Native iOS & Android app | Compiled Swift + Kotlin binaries | Web application (third-party native plugin available) | Only GoodBarber publishes directly to the App Store and Google Play with true native performance | | Progressive Web App | Included from the Standard plan | Included | Both cover the PWA use case | | Getting started without technical skills | Guided setup — extensions, CSS/HTML or an AI prompt whenever you need it | Data modeling and screen wiring required from the start | GoodBarber's floor is accessible; its ceiling is high | | Push notifications | Included, segmented, up to 250,000/month | Third-party integration required | GoodBarber push is native and ready from the back office — no Zapier, no external service | | Hosting & database | Included in every plan (data in Europe) | Included (capacity grows with usage) | Both include hosting; GoodBarber's price is fixed — no nasty surprises as your app grows | | App store submission assistance | GBTC service available | Not offered | Our team can handle your App Store and Google Play submissions — 91% recovery rate on Apple rejections | | In-app purchases (StoreKit / Google Play Billing) | From the Premium plan | Custom implementation required | GoodBarber natively handles the Apple and Google billing flow | | E-commerce with 0% commission | 22 payment gateways, 0% GoodBarber commission | External payment setup required | GoodBarber takes nothing from your mobile e-commerce revenue | | AI-ready (MCP server) | Manage your app through AI agents | Not available | GoodBarber apps can be driven by Claude, Cursor or any MCP-compatible assistant | | Data hosted in Europe | All data on EU servers | US-based infrastructure | A concrete difference for GDPR compliance and data sovereignty | | Learning curve | Gentle — hours to a first publishable app | Steep — days to weeks for the architecture | GoodBarber shortens time-to-market; Bubble rewards technical investment with greater flexibility | | Ideal profile | Non-technical teams, SMBs, mobile app agencies | Technical founders, custom web app developers | The right choice depends on your output and your team | ## Three differences that change everything ### 1. Native app vs web app — it's not the same product Bubble builds web applications. They run in a browser or a WebView — they aren't native applications in the technical sense. GoodBarber compiles to Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android: real native binaries, with full access to OS features, native performance, and distribution on the App Store and Google Play. If your users download your app from the App Store, this distinction matters every day they use it. One download every 4 seconds — across 152 countries, since 2011. ### 2. You build the app — not its architecture Bubble gives you a blank page and a database engine. Before you design a single screen, you model your data structure, define your types, wire up your actions, and think like a back-end developer. It's powerful — and it's the right approach for complex, custom business logic. GoodBarber starts from the opposite end. Navigation, content structure, push notifications, user accounts and e-commerce are pre-built and ready to configure. You spend your time on your app, not on its plumbing. 14 years of infrastructure — product decisions you don't have to make again. ### 3. Deep customization — without starting from scratch Bubble's blank page is real freedom. It's also a real requirement: every screen, every interaction, every data binding is your architectural responsibility. GoodBarber ships a formalized design system — 80 themes, automatic WCAG compliance, golden-ratio typography — the structural work is already done. From that base, you customize at every level: design tokens, CSS/HTML injection, 190+ extensions, and the AI Extension Builder (in Beta) that lets you create any custom section from a prompt. The generated code plugs straight into the GoodBarber APIs and ships in your native app. The ceiling is high. You simply don't have to start from scratch to reach it. 190+ available extensions — plus the AI Extension Builder to create your custom sections from a prompt. ## The real cost, beyond the sticker price With Bubble, the entry price isn't enough for a finished app: all around it, there's a stack left to **assemble — and pay for** yourself. Let's break down what each price really covers. ### GoodBarber — from $30/month $30/month (billed annually): - Hosting and database (data in Europe) - CMS and back office - Push notifications (10,000/month) - Built-in analytics - PWA output - 0% commission on e-commerce transactions Native iOS + Android apps — from $55/month: - Native iOS + Android output (Swift + Kotlin) - In-app purchases (Apple StoreKit / Google Play Billing) - User authentication, loyalty, booking - 20 extensions included - App store submission assistance (GBTC) ### Bubble - Hosting and database included at an initial capacity - Flexible business logic and data models - Server costs that grow with complexity and users - Native mobile output via an additional third-party plugin - Store submission entirely on you Bubble's current pricing is available at bubble.io/pricing. The GoodBarber plan includes **everything a native app in production needs**. With Bubble, you assemble the stack yourself. ## Which platform is right for you? ### Choose GoodBarber if… - You want a real native iOS and Android app - Your team has no developers or limited technical bandwidth - You need to launch in weeks, not months - You want push, e-commerce and user accounts without integrating third-party services - You need custom features — and would rather create them from a prompt than by hiring a developer - GDPR compliance and hosting data in Europe matter to your business - You're an agency managing several client apps ### Choose Bubble if… - You're building a complex web application with custom business logic - You have a technical team comfortable with data modeling - Your project needs non-standard workflows that no preconfigured platform covers - A web application — not a native mobile app — fits your use case ## Frequently asked questions ### Is GoodBarber better than Bubble? It depends on what you're building. GoodBarber is better suited to native mobile apps — it produces real Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android) binaries, includes hosting and push notifications, and requires no technical setup. Bubble is better suited to custom web applications with complex data models and business logic. If your goal is an app on the App Store or Google Play, GoodBarber is the most direct route. ### Can GoodBarber replace Bubble for a mobile app project? For most mobile use cases — content publishing, local business apps, e-commerce, community apps, service apps — yes. GoodBarber covers these needs with ready-to-configure features, deep design customization and native output. When you need something beyond that, the AI Extension Builder lets you create custom sections from a prompt; the generated code plugs into the platform's APIs and ships in the native app. For projects that need very specific web logic with custom data models from day one, Bubble's architecture may be a better fit. ### Does Bubble publish native iOS and Android apps? Bubble builds web applications. A third-party native wrapper plugin exists, but native iOS and Android output isn't the core of the Bubble product. GoodBarber compiles natively to Swift and Kotlin from the same setup in the back office — no plugin, no wrapper. ### How much does GoodBarber cost compared to Bubble? GoodBarber starts at $360/year ($30/month equivalent). Native iOS + Android output is available from $660/year ($55/month) with the Premium plan — hosting, database, push notifications, store assistance and iOS + Android + PWA output, all included. Bubble's pricing starts lower but scales with server capacity, and native mobile output requires additional setup. The right comparison is total cost of ownership, not the base subscription line. ### Can you migrate from Bubble to GoodBarber? Content and user data can be imported through GoodBarber's API and CMS. The app structure itself will need to be rebuilt — the two platforms have different architectures. The GoodBarber back office is designed to make this step fast for non-technical teams: most standard app patterns are ready to configure without custom development. ### Is GoodBarber suitable for users without technical skills? Yes. The back office requires no database modeling, no screen wiring, no code. Features like push notifications, in-app purchases, user authentication and e-commerce are pre-built and configurable through a visual interface. We've been building for non-technical teams since 2011. ## Ready to build your native app? Start for free — no credit card.

Emergent is a prompt-to-app generator. GoodBarber is a platform that covers the whole life of an app — creation, operation, evolution over several years. **Choosing means knowing what you'll do after launch.** **GoodBarber** - Native iOS (Swift) & Android (Kotlin) binaries - Full back-office: CMS, push, accounts, e-commerce - Flat subscription from $30/month — all included - 190+ extensions + AI Extension Builder (Beta) **Emergent** - React Native via Expo, code exportable to GitHub - Prompt-based generation in ~25 minutes (multi-agent) - Credit-based pricing: $20 or $200/month - No CMS interface — updates via re-prompt or code If you want a **quick prototype to show tomorrow** or your team is fluent in GitHub, Emergent saves real time. If you want an app your editorial or marketing team can keep alive for three years **without reopening a terminal**, GoodBarber is the right call. ## GoodBarber vs Emergent: feature by feature Two different promises: generation speed on one side, operational durability on the other. The table below shows concretely what each one covers — and what's left on your plate. | Feature | GoodBarber | Emergent | What it means for you | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Native iOS & Android app | Swift + Kotlin binaries compiled from the back-office | React Native via Expo — manual native build | GoodBarber handles the native pipeline all the way to the store; with Emergent, opening Xcode and an Apple Developer account are on you | | Progressive Web App | Included, generated from the same configuration | Web app deployed on Emergent's infrastructure | Both cover the web case — GoodBarber combines it with native at no extra setup | | Back-office for daily operation | CMS, push, accounts, e-commerce — all in a visual interface | No content-editing interface | On Emergent, updating an article means re-prompting (credits spent), editing MongoDB or touching the code | | Building custom features | AI Extension Builder (Beta) — custom sections by prompt, wired to GoodBarber's APIs | Core of the product — full generation by prompt with a multi-agent system | Both leverage generative AI — GoodBarber uses it to extend a structured base, Emergent to build the whole thing from scratch | | Push notifications | Included, segmented, up to 250,000/month depending on plan | Not documented in the product | With Emergent, you integrate a third-party service (Firebase, OneSignal) and wire it yourself | | Hosting & database | Included in every plan, flat price | Included (hosting + MongoDB), credit-based usage | GoodBarber: predictable bill. Emergent: an active deployment alone uses ~50 credits/month of the Standard plan's 100 | | Code ownership and export | No source-code export (value in the managed service) | Full GitHub export (React, Python/FastAPI, MongoDB) | If code portability is a strategic requirement, Emergent meets it natively | | Store-publishing support | GBTC service — 91% recovery rate on Apple rejections | Store submission entirely on you (Xcode, Apple Developer account) | The GBTC service absorbs Apple's unpredictability; on Emergent, it's a full development project | | In-app purchases & e-commerce | StoreKit + Google Play Billing, 22 gateways, 0% commission | Implementation to code or integrate | To sell in the app, GoodBarber exposes the ready-to-activate circuit; Emergent assumes a developer on hand | | AI-ready (MCP server) | MCP server + 30 Claude Skills — driven by Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT | Built with AI, not operated by third-party agents | Beyond generation, GoodBarber lets an AI agent operate the app day to day (content, push, orders) | | Pricing model | Flat subscription: $30/month (PWA) to $135/month (Pro) | Credits: $20/month for 100 credits, $200/month for 1,000 credits | Emergent's cost depends on how much you iterate; GoodBarber's cost is known upfront | | Data hosted in Europe | All data on EU servers | US infrastructure (SOC 2 Type I, ISO 27001 certified) | GDPR-native on one side, US enterprise compliance on the other — depending on your market and requirements | | Ideal profile | Editorial, marketing, SMB and agency teams that need to run the app daily | Technical founders, product teams comfortable with GitHub, throwaway projects or short MVPs | The right choice depends on what you'll do after launch, not just before | ## Three differences that change everything ### 1. Generating an app isn't keeping it alive Emergent does one thing remarkably well: generate a working app that runs in 25 minutes. Its multi-agent system — planning, frontend, backend, testing, deployment — produces a real deliverable, with self-correction when an integration fails on the first try. For a prototype, an investor demo or an internal tool, that's measurable time saved. The rest of an app's life — publishing a new article every Tuesday, sending a push to a segment of users, adding a promo, handling 200 orders — isn't a generation problem. **It's an operation problem.** GoodBarber is built for that second half of the story: a structured back-office where every daily action has its interface, with no re-prompt, no credit, no developer on standby. **1 / 4 s** — One download every 4 seconds — on apps operated since 2011. ### 2. React Native via Expo vs compiled native binary Emergent produces React Native via Expo. It's cross-platform mobile code, a real step up from a web wrapper — but someone still has to open Xcode, set up an Apple Developer account and drive the App Store submission. **The distance between "the app runs in the editor" and "the app is on the store" is still a development project.** GoodBarber compiles to pure Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android, straight from the back-office configuration, with no JavaScript bridge or third-party runtime. The pipeline goes all the way to the store: our GBTC team can take over the submission, with **91% recovery on apps initially rejected by Apple**. **91%** — GBTC recovery rate on apps initially rejected by Apple (42% of first iOS submissions are rejected). ### 3. Customize without choosing between coding everything or customizing nothing Emergent's argument is total freedom: the code is yours, exportable to GitHub, editable line by line. That's powerful if you have the team to maintain it. **It's a liability if you don't.** GoodBarber frames the debate differently. The structured base — Smart Design, 80 themes, CMS, push, accounts — saves the weeks of plumbing. On top, the ceiling stays high: CSS and HTML injection, **190+ extensions** in the Store, and the **AI Extension Builder** (in Beta) that generates any custom section by prompt — the produced code plugs into our APIs and is published in your native app. You customize deeply without starting from scratch for every specific need. **190+** — Available extensions — plus the AI Extension Builder to create your sections by prompt. ## The real cost, beyond the sticker price With **credit-based billing**, the advertised price says almost nothing: the real cost depends on how often you call on the AI. Here's what each model covers. ### GoodBarber — from $30/month $30/month (annual billing — $360/year) - Hosting and database (data in Europe) - Full CMS and back-office - Push notifications - Built-in analytics - PWA output - 0% commission on e-commerce transactions Native iOS + Android apps — from $55/month (annual Premium — $660/year) - Native iOS + Android output (Swift + Kotlin) - In-app purchases (Apple StoreKit / Google Play Billing) - User authentication, loyalty, booking - 20 extensions included - Store-publishing support (GBTC) ### Emergent - Standard plan at $20/month for 100 credits - Pro plan at $200/month for 1,000 credits - An active deployment alone uses ~50 credits/month - Each design iteration or prompt-based fix consumes additional credits - Store submission and third-party services (push, payment) to add separately Emergent's current pricing is available at emergent.sh/pricing. With GoodBarber, **the app costs the same whether you touch it every day or once a month**. With Emergent, every change spends a counter — and half the counter already goes to keeping the app online. ## Which platform is right for you? ### Choose GoodBarber if… - Your app will be updated regularly by an editorial, marketing or sales team — with no developer in the loop - You want real native iOS and Android apps published on the stores, with a hand for submission - You need segmented push notifications and analytics from day one, without integrating a third-party service - You sell (or plan to sell) in the app and want 0% commission on transactions - Your budget must be predictable — not indexed to the number of iterations or project complexity - You need custom features but prefer to create them by prompt rather than maintain a GitHub repo - Hosting data in Europe is a requirement for your market or industry - You're an agency managing multiple client apps (Reseller program) ### Choose Emergent if… - You prototype fast, in a single session, to validate an idea or show a demo - Your team is comfortable with GitHub and can maintain a React/Python/MongoDB project over time - Full source-code ownership is a non-negotiable strategic requirement - You're building an internal tool or a one-off project whose maintenance won't fall on non-technical profiles ## Frequently asked questions ### Is GoodBarber better than Emergent? It depends on what you're measuring. On the time needed to get a first running app, Emergent is unbeatable — its 25-minute generation is real. On what happens next — editing content without re-prompting, sending a push, selling, publishing on the stores, evolving the app over three years — GoodBarber was built for that since 2011. The two tools answer two different questions: how long to generate, and how long to keep alive. ### Why talk about a "credit paradox" with Emergent? On Emergent's Standard plan at $20/month, you get 100 credits — and an active deployment alone uses about 50 each month. That leaves you around fifty credits to iterate, fix bugs or tweak the design before having to move to the Pro plan at $200/month. With GoodBarber, the subscription is flat: editing the app ten times a day doesn't change the bill. ### Does Emergent produce real native iOS and Android apps? Emergent generates React Native via Expo — cross-platform mobile code run by a JavaScript runtime. It's not exactly comparable to a binary compiled in Swift and Kotlin like the one GoodBarber produces, but it's a real step forward from a simple WebView. The distinction matters most at publishing time: with Emergent, submitting to the App Store and Google Play is still a full development project. ### How do you manage content day to day on Emergent? Emergent doesn't provide a CMS interface. To update an article, a product or a listing, you either re-prompt the AI (spending credits), edit the MongoDB database directly, or modify the source code exported to GitHub. That's manageable for a technical founder; it's a blocker for an autonomous editorial or marketing team. Our back-office was built precisely for that team. ### How much does GoodBarber cost compared to Emergent? GoodBarber starts at $360/year ($30/month equivalent) for the PWA. Native iOS + Android output is available from $660/year ($55/month) with the Premium plan — hosting, database, push notifications, store support and iOS + Android + PWA output, all included. Emergent advertises a base subscription at $20/month, but the real bill depends on credits consumed — an active deployment already absorbs half, and frequent iterations push quickly toward the $200/month plan. ### Can you migrate from Emergent to GoodBarber? The content and user data of an Emergent app can be imported via our API and CMS — MongoDB exports without trouble, and GoodBarber's data structure is documented. The app itself is rebuilt on the GoodBarber side: no porting of React code, but direct configuration in the back-office, which is generally faster for a non-technical team than maintaining the exported source code. ## Ready to create an app that lives after launch?

GoodBarber compiles real native iOS and Android apps — and gives you the back-office to run them without ever opening an IDE. The code-oriented visual dev environment against the European all-in-one platform: what really sets them apart, beyond code ownership. **GoodBarber** - Native Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android) binaries, compiled from the back-office and published to both stores - Purpose-built CMS, segmented push, accounts, e-commerce, analytics — each action has its own screen, no database schema, no external integration - Flat subscription from €30/month — hosting, database, push, and EU data hosting included, no per-seat pricing - 190+ extensions, CSS/HTML injection, AI Extension Builder (Beta) to generate custom sections **FlutterFlow** - One Flutter / Dart codebase compiling to iOS, Android, and Web — exportable code, no lock-in - Visual canvas with 200+ UI elements, Flutter widget-tree logic, branching and team collaboration - Per-seat pricing ($39 to $150+/seat/month); hosting, database, push, and payments via Firebase, Supabase, OneSignal, Stripe, RevenueCat - No built-in CMS or operations back-office — post-launch content management requires an external integration Owning and exporting a Flutter codebase: FlutterFlow. A native app published on the stores, run daily by a team without a developer: GoodBarber. ## GoodBarber vs FlutterFlow: feature by feature What each platform does — and what it changes for your project. | Feature | GoodBarber | FlutterFlow | What it means for you | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | iOS output | Native Swift (compiled binary) | Flutter / Dart compiled to iOS (cross-platform) | GoodBarber outputs native Swift; FlutterFlow wraps a single Flutter codebase — a platform-fidelity trade-off in exchange for a shared source | | Android output | Native Kotlin (compiled binary) | Flutter / Dart compiled to Android (cross-platform) | Same logic: animations, OS integration, and store-review compliance favor compiled native | | Progressive Web App | PWA engine included, from the same config | Flutter Web output from the same project | FlutterFlow shines here: one source for iOS, Android and Web; on GoodBarber, the PWA is a distinct, included engine | | Hosting & database | Included in the subscription | External (Firebase / Supabase to wire and pay for) | On FlutterFlow, the data stack is a third-party service with its own billing; on GoodBarber, it's in the plan | | Push notifications | Included, segmented, up to 250,000/month | External (OneSignal integration) | GoodBarber push ships from the back-office with no third-party account; on FlutterFlow it's an added OneSignal subscription | | CMS / content management | Purpose-built integrated interface | Not included — Strapi / Noloco / AppSheet integration required | This is the #1 structural gap for an editorial team: without a CMS, publishing an article means an external integration or a custom admin area | | Back-office for daily operations | Full management interface, localized in 16 languages | Development canvas only | FlutterFlow is built to develop, not to run content daily — there is no operations console | | E-commerce / payments | Included, 0% GoodBarber commission, 22 gateways | External (Stripe / RevenueCat to configure) | To sell in-app, GoodBarber exposes a single flow; on FlutterFlow you wire and manage each service separately | | App Store publishing assistance | GBTC service available | User's responsibility (accounts, certificates, listings) | FlutterFlow exports the build and stops there; GBTC handles Apple rejections with a 91% recovery rate | | Code ownership / export | Managed platform, native binaries (no code export) | Full Dart / Flutter code export, no lock-in | If code portability is strategic, FlutterFlow answers that need natively | | Pricing model | Flat subscription (€30/month to €135/month) | Per seat ($39 to $150+/seat/month) + external stack costs | On FlutterFlow, every team member on Growth/Business tiers is another seat; on GoodBarber the price pays for the app | | Learning curve | Gentle — hours to a publishable app | Steep — the canvas mobilizes Flutter's vocabulary and logic | FlutterFlow's "no-code" framing assumes Flutter familiarity in practice; GoodBarber is built for non-technical teams | | Data hosted in Europe | All data on EU servers — GDPR by default | Not specified publicly (no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 listed) | For a regulated sector or a GDPR-sensitive European market, data sovereignty changes the case | | Best fit | Editorial teams, local businesses, agencies operating the app without a developer | Developers and developer-adjacent teams who want to export Flutter | The right choice depends on who runs the app on Tuesday morning, three years after launch | ## Three differences that change everything ### 1. Owning Flutter code is not running the app FlutterFlow's promise is real: your IP is your Dart code — exportable, portable, maintainable in any Flutter environment, independent of the platform's survival. For a developer or a technical founder, that ownership solves a genuine problem. But owning a codebase and operating a product are two different jobs. Publishing a guide on Monday morning, sending a targeted push to travelers in Lisbon, adding a product variant from a tablet: in a FlutterFlow app, each of these tasks goes through code, a third-party service, or an admin area you have to build. GoodBarber reverses the logic. We don't hand you code, we hand you the product already operable: the back-office covers every daily task — a field to edit, not a Cloud Function to write. That's the ownership a non-technical team actually needs. **4 s** — one download every 4 seconds, on apps we operate since 2011 — not ones we hand back as code. ### 2. The missing CMS is an editorial team's daily work disappearing FlutterFlow includes no CMS — its own community confirms it: post-launch content management goes through integrating Strapi, Noloco, or AppSheet, editing the Firebase/Supabase database directly, or building a custom admin area inside the app. The canvas is built to develop, not to run content every week. None of these options is realistic for a small editorial team without ongoing developer support. GoodBarber ships a CMS built for exactly this, integrated into the subscription. The team publishes articles, events, and alerts with no code, no database schema, no external integration — and the same back-office handles accounts, push, and e-commerce. **16** — languages — the back-office is localized so each member of a multinational editorial team works in their own. ### 3. Customization: without choosing between coding everything in Dart or customizing nothing FlutterFlow's argument is low-level control: custom Dart, bespoke Flutter widgets, REST APIs, Cloud Functions. That's real power if you have the technical team to use it — and a debt if you don't, especially since reviewers report a canvas that drags past a dozen screens and platform updates that break existing projects. GoodBarber frames it differently. The structured foundation — Smart Design, navigation, CMS, accounts, push, payments — saves weeks of plumbing. On top of it, the ceiling stays high: CSS and HTML injection, 190+ extensions in the Store, and the AI Extension Builder (in Beta) that generates any custom section by prompt — the produced code plugs into our APIs and lands in your native app, without starting from a blank page. **190+** — extensions in the Store, plus the AI Extension Builder (Beta) to generate any custom section — without starting from a blank page. ## The real cost: what's in the price The advertised subscription tells only part of the story — and it tells even less when the price is counted per seat and hosting, database, push, and payments arrive as separate bills. ### GoodBarber from €30/month €30/month (€360/year) - Hosting and database (data in Europe) - CMS and full back-office - Push notifications (10,000/month on the entry plan) - Built-in analytics - PWA output - 0% commission on e-commerce transactions Native iOS + Android apps start at €55/month (Premium annual — €660/year) - Native iOS + Android output (Swift + Kotlin) - In-app purchases (Apple StoreKit / Google Play Billing) - User authentication, loyalty, booking - 20 extensions included - App Store publishing assistance (GBTC) ### FlutterFlow — per-seat pricing + external stack costs - Per-seat pricing: from $39/month (Basic) to $150+/seat (Business); on Growth and Business, every additional member is another seat - Hosting and database via Firebase or Supabase — separate subscriptions - Push via OneSignal, payments via Stripe or RevenueCat — each with its own billing and quota model - CMS not included — external integration or custom admin area on you Current FlutterFlow pricing is available at flutterflow.io/pricing. A FlutterFlow Business seat at $150/month, plus Firebase, plus OneSignal, plus Stripe fees, plus an external CMS quickly exceeds a flat GoodBarber subscription — while delivering less integrated capability. ## Which platform is right for you? ### Choose GoodBarber if… - You want real native iOS and Android apps published in the stores, with help on submission - You are an editorial team, community manager, or local business updating your app regularly without a developer — articles, products, push, events - You want a CMS, push, accounts, and e-commerce that configure, without wiring Firebase, OneSignal, or Stripe alongside - You operate in a regulated or privacy-sensitive market (EU, education, public sector, kids content) and need data hosted in Europe and a native IAB TCF v2 consent platform - Your budget must be predictable — a flat subscription, not a per-seat price that grows with the team - You need custom features but prefer to generate them by prompt on a structured foundation rather than write and maintain Dart (AI Extension Builder) - You are an agency operating multiple client apps (Reseller program) ### Choose FlutterFlow if… - You have a developer or co-founder who understands Flutter — or want to learn it — and exporting the Dart code is a strategic asset - Your project needs heavy business logic, bespoke widgets, or platform integrations beyond a configured platform, and you can maintain Dart - You are building a single-codebase product targeting iOS, Android and Web from one source, and the platform-fidelity trade-off is acceptable - You are an agency or consultancy looking for a visual accelerator on Flutter projects delivered to clients as source code - You are an enterprise team with internal Flutter capability and want to standardize on a visual dev environment with branching and collaboration ## Frequently asked questions ### Is GoodBarber better than FlutterFlow? Not in the absolute — the two tools answer different needs. FlutterFlow is a solid visual development environment for those who know Flutter: 200+ UI elements, full Dart code export, iOS + Android + Web output from a single source, and a credible enterprise customer base. GoodBarber answers a different question: producing a real native app published in the stores and running it daily with a non-technical team — publishing content, sending push, selling, submitting updates — without ever opening an IDE. ### Does FlutterFlow produce native iOS and Android apps? Not in the sense of native Swift or native Kotlin. FlutterFlow generates Flutter (Dart) code, then compiled to iOS and Android via the Flutter framework — a cross-platform approach from a single codebase, not native compilation. GoodBarber compiles native Swift for iOS and native Kotlin for Android, which matters for animation smoothness, OS integration, and App Store review compliance. ### Does FlutterFlow include a CMS? No. FlutterFlow does not include a content management interface — its community and third-party tutorials confirm that post-launch content management requires integrating an external CMS (Strapi, Noloco, AppSheet), editing the database directly, or building a custom admin area inside the app. GoodBarber includes a purpose-built CMS in the subscription, designed so a non-technical team can publish without code. ### How does pricing compare between GoodBarber and FlutterFlow? GoodBarber starts at €360/year (€30/month equivalent), with native iOS + Android output from €660/year (€55/month) — hosting, database, push, 0% commission e-commerce, and store assistance included. FlutterFlow charges per seat ($0 to $150+/seat/month) and excludes the underlying stack: hosting, database, push, and payments run through Firebase, Supabase, OneSignal, Stripe, or RevenueCat, each with its own subscription. The right comparison is total cost of ownership, not the base subscription line. ### Can I migrate a FlutterFlow project to GoodBarber? FlutterFlow code is exportable as Dart, and content stored in Firebase/Supabase or wired third-party services is exportable in standard formats. On the GoodBarber side, the app is not a port of the Flutter code: it is reconfigured in the back-office, where your content, products, and user accounts are imported via our API and the CMS. For a non-technical team, this reconfiguration is usually faster than maintaining an exported Dart codebase. ## Ready to run a native app, not just export its code? Start for free — no credit card.

GoodBarber starts from a mobile experience to build. Glide starts from data you already have to visualize. **Choosing starts with knowing which output you expect.** **GoodBarber** - Native iOS & Android apps (Swift + Kotlin) - Native push, e-commerce, user accounts, CMS - Extensions, CSS/HTML, AI Extension Builder - Hosting + database + stores — all included **Glide** - Web apps and PWAs (no native output) - Turning spreadsheets into operational tools - Internal portals and team business tools - Push removed since December 2024 If your goal is **an app downloadable from the App Store and Google Play**, GoodBarber is the direct route. If your goal is an internal web tool built from a spreadsheet, Glide is made for that. ## GoodBarber vs Glide: feature by feature Both tools create no-code interfaces, but their outputs are fundamentally different — which makes some direct comparisons misleading. | Feature | GoodBarber | Glide | What it means for you | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Native iOS & Android app | Compiled Swift + Kotlin binaries | Web application only | Only GoodBarber publishes directly to the App Store and Google Play with true native performance | | Progressive Web App | Included from the Standard plan | Included | Both cover the PWA case — if web is enough, both work | | App Store & Google Play publishing | Direct native output + GBTC service | Not natively supported | GoodBarber handles the whole submission cycle; Glide doesn't have this output | | Push notifications | Included, segmented, up to 250,000/month | Removed since December 2024 | A key engagement channel missing from Glide — native and present in GoodBarber | | No-code onboarding | Guided setup + extensions, CSS/HTML, AI | Accessible if you master your source data | GoodBarber starts from an app to configure; Glide starts from a spreadsheet to connect | | Hosting & database | Included in all plans, data in Europe | Included (connected to your data source) | Both include hosting; GoodBarber also centralizes the data on the platform side | | Store publishing assistance | GBTC service — 91% Apple recovery rate | Not applicable | GBTC handles your App Store submissions for you, with a proven recovery rate | | In-app purchases (StoreKit / Google Play Billing) | From the Premium plan | Not native | GoodBarber natively integrates the Apple and Google billing flow | | Mobile e-commerce | 22 gateways, 0% GoodBarber commission | Not built for mobile e-commerce | If you sell in-app, GoodBarber covers the full case; Glide isn't positioned on this market | | Data hosted in Europe | All data on EU servers | US-based infrastructure | A concrete point for GDPR compliance and data sovereignty | | AI-ready (MCP server) | Manage your app through AI agents (Claude, Cursor…) | Not available | GoodBarber apps can be driven by any MCP-compatible assistant | | Ideal profile | Non-technical teams, SMBs, local businesses, agencies that build mobile apps | Teams automating internal workflows from existing structured data | The right choice depends on your expected output and your audience | ## Three differences that change everything ### 1. Native app vs web tool: two products, two audiences Glide excels at one precise case: taking existing data in Google Sheets, Airtable or a SQL database, and turning it into a web work tool for an internal team. That's real value for operational teams managing stock, schedules or support tickets. GoodBarber solves a different problem: building a **native mobile application, published on the App Store and Google Play**, for end users. The output is a binary compiled in Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android) — not a WebView, not an encapsulated web interface. When your users download your app from the stores, the difference shows in every interaction. **1 / 4 s** — One download every 4 seconds — across 152 countries, since 2011. ### 2. Native push vs silent engagement Push notifications are one of the most effective engagement channels for a mobile app — and that's exactly what **Glide removed from its product in December 2024**. GoodBarber integrates push natively: segmented, schedulable, with direct access from the back office and no third-party service. Plans include between 10,000 and 250,000 pushes per month depending on the subscription tier. If your retention strategy relies on proactive communication with your users, this point is a game-changer. **250k** — Push notifications/month included in the Pro plan — no third-party subscription. ### 3. Deep customization — without starting from scratch Glide offers presentation flexibility within its data-first logic: you adapt the view to your data. Visual customization stays tied to what your data sources can produce. GoodBarber ships a formalized design system — the first app builder to structure a real no-code design system: 80 themes, automatic WCAG compliance, golden-ratio typography, semantic color tokens. From that base, you customize at every level: **design tokens, CSS/HTML injection, 190+ extensions**, and the AI Extension Builder (Beta) that lets you create any custom section from a prompt — the generated code plugs straight into the GoodBarber APIs and ships in your native app. The ceiling is high. You don't have to start from scratch to reach it. **190+** — Available extensions — plus the AI Extension Builder to create your sections from a prompt. ## The real cost, beyond the sticker price Glide's plans are clear, but they pay for a **web tool for your data** — not an app published on the stores. Here's what each subscription really covers. ### GoodBarber — from $30/month $30/month (billed annually) - Hosting and database (data in Europe) - CMS and back office - Push notifications (10,000/month) - Built-in analytics - PWA output - 0% commission on e-commerce transactions Native iOS + Android apps — from $55/month - Native iOS + Android output (Swift + Kotlin) - In-app purchases (Apple StoreKit / Google Play Billing) - User authentication, loyalty, booking - 20 extensions included - App store submission assistance (GBTC) ### Glide - Web interface included in the base subscription - Data source connection required (Google Sheets, Airtable, SQL…) - Native mobile output not available - Push notifications removed since December 2024 - Store submission not applicable Glide's current pricing is available at glide.com/pricing. GoodBarber includes **everything a native app in production needs**. With Glide, you get a powerful web tool for your data — but not an app on the stores. ## Which platform is right for you? ### Choose GoodBarber if… - You want a real native iOS and Android app, published on the stores - You need push notifications to engage your users - Your team has no developers or limited technical bandwidth - You want push, e-commerce, user accounts and CMS without assembling third-party services - You're after custom features — and would rather create them from a prompt than by hiring a developer - GDPR compliance and hosting data in Europe matter to your business - You're an agency managing several client apps (Reseller program) - You operate the app day to day: content, push, stats, e-commerce — from a back office built to last ### Choose Glide if… - Your project is about making existing data accessible as a web interface - You're running an internal tool for a team (stock management, scheduling, operational tracking) - Your data source is already structured in Google Sheets, Airtable or a SQL database - A web application — not a native app on the stores — fits your use case ## Frequently asked questions ### Is GoodBarber better than Glide? It depends on your project. GoodBarber is built for native mobile apps published on the App Store and Google Play — with push, e-commerce and user accounts integrated. Glide is built to turn existing data into team web tools. If your goal is an app your customers can download, GoodBarber is the direct route. If your goal is an internal operational tool from a spreadsheet, Glide is worth evaluating. ### Does Glide publish native iOS and Android apps? No. Glide creates web apps and PWAs. Publishing to the App Store or Google Play isn't natively supported. GoodBarber compiles natively to Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android) from the same setup in the back office — no plugin, no third-party wrapper. ### How much does GoodBarber cost compared to Glide? GoodBarber starts at $360/year ($30/month equivalent) — hosting, database, CMS, analytics and PWA included. Native iOS + Android output is available from $660/year ($55/month) with the Premium plan. The right comparison is total cost of ownership: GoodBarber includes in its subscription what other tools charge for separately. Glide's current pricing is available at glide.com/pricing. ### Does GoodBarber offer push notifications? Yes — push is native and included from the Standard plan (10,000 pushes/month). It's segmentable, schedulable and manageable from the back office without any third-party service. Glide removed push notifications from its product in December 2024. ### Can you migrate from Glide to GoodBarber? Your data and content can be imported through GoodBarber's API and CMS. The interface structure will need to be reconfigured — the two platforms have different architectures. The GoodBarber back office is designed to make this step fast for non-technical teams: most standard app structures are ready to configure without custom development. ### Is GoodBarber suitable for teams without developers? Yes. The back office requires no database modeling, no screen wiring, no code. Features like push notifications, in-app purchases, user authentication and e-commerce are pre-built and configurable through a visual interface. We've been building for non-technical teams since 2011. ## Ready to build your native app? Start for free — no credit card.

GoodBarber compiles real native iOS and Android apps — and gives you the back-office to run them for years. The best-known AI app generator against the European all-in-one platform: what really sets them apart, beyond speed to a prototype. **GoodBarber** - Native iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) binaries, published on both stores - Structured back-office: CMS, segmented push, accounts, e-commerce, analytics - Fixed subscription from €30/month — hosting, database and push included - 190+ extensions, CSS/HTML injection, AI Extension Builder (Beta) **Lovable** - Full-stack web app by prompt: React + TanStack Start on Supabase, delivered as a URL - Renowned for first-pass visual quality - One-way code export to GitHub; auth and database via Lovable Cloud - Credit-based pricing: free, Pro $25/month, Business $50/month Web app and picking up the code on GitHub: Lovable. Native app on the stores, run daily by a team: GoodBarber. ## GoodBarber vs Lovable: feature by feature What each platform does — and what it changes for your project. | Feature | GoodBarber | Lovable | What it means for you | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Native iOS & Android app | Swift + Kotlin binaries compiled from the back-office | Web only — Capacitor / Expo wrapper possible but not platform-provided | Lovable owns it: "focused on web applications." For a native store presence, GoodBarber runs the pipeline end to end; on Lovable, mobile wrapping is a separate dev project | | App Store & Google Play publishing | Integrated pipeline + GBTC submission service | Not applicable — no native binary to submit | If a store presence matters (discovery, trust signal, in-app purchases), it's GoodBarber; if the app ships by URL, Lovable is enough | | Progressive Web App | Included, generated from the same configuration as the native apps | Possible — via third-party config (e.g. Progressier) or a specific prompt | Both cover the web case; GoodBarber combines it with native at no extra setup, Lovable stops there | | Push notifications | Included, segmented, up to 250,000/month depending on plan | External — third-party service required (Progressier, OneSignal…), configured and paid separately | On Lovable there is no push scheduling or segmentation interface in the back-office; with us it's a module you switch on in one click | | Editorial CMS | Full — drafts, scheduling, publishing workflow, media management | Partial — Lovable Cloud offers a data-editing UI, not a publishing CMS | Running weekly editorial production on Lovable means building that layer from scratch; with us it's the content team's daily interface | | Accounts & authentication | Authentication, user accounts and chat included from Premium | Included via Lovable Cloud — one of the genuinely built-in capabilities | Both cover the account layer cleanly; the difference is what surrounds it (push, CMS, native output) | | In-app purchases & e-commerce | StoreKit + Google Play Billing, 22 gateways, 0% GoodBarber commission | Stripe via API (external setup); no StoreKit / Play Billing | Apple / Google in-app circuits are native-only — selling paid content in-app requires a native binary, built in with us | | Hosting & database | Included in all plans, flat price — data in Europe | Included via Lovable Cloud / Supabase | No third-party service to wire up on either side; the difference is price predictability and data location | | Stability as the project grows | Pre-engineered modules with defined boundaries — changing push doesn't touch e-commerce | As the app grows, users report needing to migrate to a local dev environment | On Lovable the AI rewrites the project with each prompt — rising regression risk; on GoodBarber each change is targeted and leaves the rest untouched | | Custom feature creation | AI Extension Builder (Beta) — custom sections generated by prompt, wired to our APIs and shipped in the native app | Core product — the whole app is generated and edited by prompt | Both use generative AI: Lovable to produce the entire app, GoodBarber to extend an already-structured foundation without regenerating everything | | Code ownership and export | No source-code export (the value is in the managed service) | One-way GitHub export (React + Supabase) | If picking up the code in a classic dev environment is a strategic requirement, Lovable meets that need natively | | Pricing model | Fixed subscription: €30/month (PWA) to €135/month (Pro) | Credits: free, Pro $25/month (100 credits), Business $50/month — each AI message consumes a credit | On Lovable an AI debugging loop can burn credits without solving the problem; on GoodBarber the subscription pays for the app, not the number of interactions | | Data hosted in Europe | All data on EU servers — GDPR-native | Infrastructure tied to Supabase (region configurable); vendor based in Stockholm | For a regulated sector or a GDPR-sensitive European market, data sovereignty by default is a concrete argument | | AI-ready (MCP server) | Open-source MCP server + 30 Claude Skills — the app is operated via Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT | Built with AI, not operated by third-party agents once shipped | Beyond generation, GoodBarber lets an AI agent operate the app day to day (content, push, orders) | | Best fit | Editorial, marketing, retail teams and agencies that must run the app daily | Founders and product teams comfortable with code, web projects, prototypes, internal tools | The right choice depends on what you'll do after the prototype, not just on how fast you get there | ## Three differences that change everything ### 1. A React web app vs native binaries published on the stores Lovable is explicit about its scope: the platform generates a web application — React with TanStack Start and server-side rendering, backed by Supabase — accessible by URL. It's a modern, sound stack, and for an internal tool, a dashboard, or a web-first product, it's exactly the right deliverable. But publishing to the App Store or Google Play requires a native binary — Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android — which Lovable does not produce. External wrapping via Capacitor or Expo is technically conceivable but not supported by the platform, and the UX trade-offs of a WebView wrapper weigh heavily on a polished brand experience. GoodBarber compiles directly into pure Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android, from the back-office configuration. The same configuration also generates a PWA: three independent outputs, one setup. And our GBTC team can take over submission — with 91% recovery on apps initially rejected by Apple. **42%** — of first iOS submissions are rejected by Apple — GBTC recovers 91% of them, where a web app never even reaches the store door. ### 2. The gap between a launched app and a running product This is the most consistent feedback from Lovable users: "when apps get bigger, you may need to migrate to local development." The model is optimized for the initial sprint — minutes from prompt to prototype — but when the entire app is a code artifact the AI rewrites with each message, every change becomes a regression risk. And because push, the editorial CMS, and in-app purchases aren't built in, running a real content app means building and wiring those layers one by one. GoodBarber's architecture is the inverse: pre-engineered modules with defined boundaries. Adding a push doesn't touch e-commerce; updating an article in the CMS doesn't affect navigation. The back-office is a stable daily interface — content, marketing, and operations teams each work without triggering side effects elsewhere. That's what allows apps to be operated since 2011, in 152 countries. **4 s** — one download every 4 seconds, on apps we've operated since 2011 — not regenerated with every prompt. ### 3. Customization: not a choice between rebuilding in code or customizing nothing Lovable's pitch is the freedom of the generated code: exportable to GitHub, editable line by line. That's powerful if you have a team to pick up this React/Supabase project and run it in a classic dev environment. It's technical debt if that team doesn't exist — and since the GitHub export is one-way, the path back to the platform isn't the intended one. GoodBarber frames it differently. The structured foundation — Smart Design, CMS, accounts, push, e-commerce — saves you the weeks of plumbing. Above it, the ceiling stays high: CSS and HTML injection, 190+ extensions in the Store, and the AI Extension Builder (in Beta) that generates any custom section by prompt — the produced code wires into our APIs and lands in your native app. You keep the AI's speed for what needs it, without starting from a blank page or hand-maintaining a whole repo. **190+** — extensions in the Store, plus the AI Extension Builder (Beta) to generate any custom section by prompt — without starting from a blank page. ## The real cost: what's in the price The headline subscription only tells part of the story — and it tells even less when the model is credit-based and the final app needs third-party services to exist on mobile. ### GoodBarber from €30/month €30/month (€360/year) - Hosting and database (data in Europe) - Editorial CMS and full back-office - Push notifications (10,000/month on the entry plan) - Built-in analytics - PWA output - 0% commission on e-commerce transactions Native iOS + Android apps start at €55/month (Premium annual — €660/year) - Native iOS + Android output (Swift + Kotlin) - In-app purchases (Apple StoreKit / Google Play Billing) - User authentication, loyalty, booking - 20 extensions included - App Store publishing assistance (GBTC) ### Lovable — base subscription + credits + third-party services for mobile - Free plan; Pro at $25/month (100 credits); Business at $50/month (SSO, team workspace, role-based access) - Every AI message consumes a credit — including prompts to fix the AI's own errors, which can enter debugging loops - Auth, database and hosting included via Lovable Cloud (with usage-based charges on top of the base plan) - To target mobile: third-party push service, Apple Developer account ($99/year), Google account ($25/year), and a wrapping toolchain to add separately Lovable's current pricing is available at lovable.dev/pricing. With GoodBarber, the headline number is the real number: your subscription pays for a native app on both stores, operable with no counter. With Lovable, the subscription pays for a credit counter — and reaching the stores still means stacking push, developer accounts, and wrapping tools. ## Which platform is right for you? ### Choose GoodBarber if… - Your app needs to ship natively on the App Store and Google Play — not as a wrapped web app - You're building a content- or commerce-driven app where the editorial CMS and push are core to daily operation - You want real native iOS and Android apps compiled from a single configuration - A content, marketing, or operations team must run the app without re-prompting or reopening the code - Your budget must be predictable — not indexed on the number of credits or the AI's debugging loops - You need custom features but prefer to generate them by prompt inside a structured foundation (AI Extension Builder) - Hosting data in Europe is a requirement for your market or compliance - You're an agency operating several client apps (Reseller program) ### Choose Lovable if… - You're building a web application — internal tool, dashboard, client portal, web-first service — and store distribution isn't a requirement - You need a compelling prototype to show this week, and first-pass visual quality matters - You or your team are comfortable with code and plan to export to GitHub to finish the build - The application logic is relatively self-contained and won't require a complex operational back-office after launch ## Frequently asked questions ### Is GoodBarber better than Lovable? It depends on what you're building. Lovable is one of the most polished AI app generators on the market, especially on first-pass visual quality and speed to a clickable web prototype. GoodBarber answers a different question: producing a real native app, published on the App Store and Google Play, operable day to day by a non-technical team — editing content, sending push, selling, evolving the app over years — without re-prompting or picking up the code by hand. ### Does Lovable produce real native iOS and Android apps? No. Lovable says so itself: the platform is focused on web applications. It generates a React app (Supabase backend) accessible by URL, installable on the home screen as a PWA. A native app — compiled in Swift or Kotlin and distributed via the stores — requires other tools. Wrapping via Capacitor or Expo is technically possible but not supported by the platform. GoodBarber compiles in Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android from the same configuration. ### Does Lovable have a CMS for editorial teams? Not in the publishing sense. Lovable Cloud offers a data-management interface to view and edit records without writing SQL. There is no draft/published state, no editorial workflow, no content calendar — those capabilities would have to be built into the generated app. GoodBarber's editorial CMS is a first-class feature, designed so a content team can publish, schedule, and manage its sections daily. ### Why mention debugging loops and credits on Lovable? Lovable bills every interaction with the AI in credits, including the prompts used to fix the AI's errors. Users report that the AI can get stuck on a bug — even introduce new ones while fixing old ones — all while consuming credits. As the project grows, the real cost disconnects from the headline subscription. With GoodBarber, the subscription is fixed: editing the app ten times a day doesn't change the bill. ### How much does GoodBarber cost compared to Lovable? GoodBarber starts at €360/year (€30/month equivalent) for the PWA, and at €660/year (€55/month) for native iOS + Android apps with publishing assistance — hosting, database, push (30,000/month), and editorial CMS included. Lovable Pro starts at $25/month on a credit model; but for a production mobile app you have to add a push service, an Apple Developer account ($99/year), a Google account ($25/year), and a wrapping toolchain — the effective cost goes well beyond the headline subscription. ### Can you migrate a Lovable app to GoodBarber? The content and users of a Lovable app are exportable: Supabase exports in standard format, and the code goes to GitHub. On GoodBarber, the app isn't a port of the React code: it's reconfigured in the back-office, where your articles, products, and accounts are imported via our API and CMS. For a non-technical team, this reconfiguration is generally faster than picking up and maintaining an exported React/Supabase project. ## Ready to publish a real native app on the stores?

Rork is one of the rare mobile-first AI generators: React Native via Expo on Pro, native SwiftUI compiled on cloud Macs on Max. GoodBarber lays down a structured base — Smart Design, CMS, accounts, push, e-commerce — that a non-technical team evolves for years without going back through a prompt. The tension isn't "native vs web view": it's between an app regenerated every sprint and an app operated from a back-office. **GoodBarber** - Native iOS (Swift) + Android (Kotlin) binaries - Structured back-office: CMS, push, accounts, e-commerce - Flat subscription from $30/month — hosting and push included - 190+ extensions + AI Extension Builder (Beta) **Rork** - Rork Pro: React Native + Expo, from $25/month - Rork Max: native iOS SwiftUI, compiled on cloud Mac ($200/month) - Prompt-based building, credits that expire on the 1st of the month - No back-office: every update is a re-prompt or a commit To prototype fast or drive a React Native / Swift project yourself, Rork is one of the most accomplished AI tools on mobile. To keep an app alive day to day with an editorial, marketing or sales team — without reopening a code editor — GoodBarber is the right call. ## GoodBarber vs Rork: feature by feature Thirteen rows to see what's included, what's missing, and what it concretely changes for your project. | Feature | GoodBarber | Rork | What it means for you | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Native iOS & Android app | Swift + Kotlin binaries compiled from the back-office | Rork Pro: React Native via Expo; Rork Max: SwiftUI iOS only | Rork covers both platforms on Pro and stays iOS-only on Max; GoodBarber compiles for iOS and Android from the same configuration. | | Compilation and store publishing | Integrated pipeline + GBTC service for submission | Rork Max: cloud Macs + App Store submission in two clicks; Rork Pro: build on you | Rork Max removes the local Xcode friction; GBTC handles Apple rejections (91% recovery) beyond the build itself. | | Progressive Web App | Included, generated from the same configuration | Web target supported for Pro apps (React Native Web) | Both cover the web case — GoodBarber makes it a first-class channel, not a by-product of the mobile build. | | Back-office for daily operation | CMS, push, accounts, e-commerce — dedicated visual interfaces | No admin interface: every change goes through a new prompt, the code or the database | On Rork, adding an article or changing a price consumes credits or opens the IDE; with us, it's a field to edit in the back-office. | | Building custom features | AI Extension Builder (Beta) — custom sections generated by prompt and wired to our APIs | Core of the product — the whole app is generated and modified by prompt | Both leverage generative AI — Rork to build and regenerate in a loop, GoodBarber to extend an already structured base. | | Push notifications | Included, segmented, up to 250,000/month depending on plan | Not delivered as standard — to integrate via a third-party service (Firebase, OneSignal) | On Rork, wiring Firebase and writing the segmentation logic is your project; with us, it's a module you enable in one click. | | Stability against regressions | Targeted changes in the back-office, without touching the rest | On every re-prompt, the AI reinterprets the context — risk of regressions on already-validated screens | The bigger the app grows, the longer the intent the AI must follow; on GoodBarber, editing one screen doesn't destabilize the others. | | Project auditability and readability | Visual configuration, versions and history in the back-office | Exportable source code, but the AI-generated structure needs a technical eye to be audited | For a non-technical team, reading what the AI actually produced remains a hurdle; on the GoodBarber side, everything shows in screens. | | In-app purchases & e-commerce | StoreKit + Google Play Billing, 22 gateways, 0% GoodBarber commission | To code or integrate via third-party modules | To sell in the app, GoodBarber exposes the ready-to-activate circuit; Rork assumes a developer or a precise re-prompt. | | Hosting & database | Included in every plan, flat price | Not included as standard — Supabase, Firebase or a custom backend to plug in | GoodBarber: a single, predictable bill. Rork: Rork subscription + third-party backend services to add. | | Pricing model | Flat subscription: $30/month (PWA) to $135/month (Pro) | Credits: $25/month (Junior) to $200/month (Senior / Max), credits that expire on the 1st of the month | On Rork, not iterating this month carries nothing over; on GoodBarber, your plan pays for the app, not the iteration pace. | | Data hosted in Europe | All data on EU servers — GDPR-native | US infrastructure; third-party backend (Supabase, Firebase) depending on your choice | For a regulated sector or a European market sensitive to GDPR, data sovereignty changes the case. | | AI-ready (MCP server) | Open-source MCP server + 30 Claude Skills — the app is operated by Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT | Built with AI, not operated by third-party agents | GoodBarber doesn't just use AI to build: an agent can operate the app day to day (content, push, orders). | ## Three differences that change everything ### 1. Regenerate the app at every iteration, or edit it in place Rork's core argument is powerful: open a browser, describe an app, watch Claude generate SwiftUI or React Native and compile it on a cloud Mac in under 30 seconds. It's a genuine mobile feat, and for a prototype or an MVP, it's a game changer. The flip side comes from the nature of AI: on every prompt, the model reinterprets the context — and the bigger the project grows, the higher the risk of a silent regression on an already-validated screen. GoodBarber reverses the sequence. The base — Smart Design, navigation, CMS sections, accounts, push, e-commerce — is laid down and held. Your changes apply to a precise spot in the back-office, without touching the rest. You keep the speed of AI for what needs it (the AI Extension Builder generates custom sections on demand), but you don't have to regenerate the whole app to add a field. **1 / 4 s** — One download every 4 seconds on apps operated since 2011 — not regenerated every sprint. ### 2. No back-office on the Rork side: every update is a re-prompt or a commit It's the direct consequence of the "everything by prompt" model. Rork has no admin screen: to publish a new article every Tuesday, change a price, segment a push or check the day's sales, you either re-prompt the AI (and consume credits that expire on the 1st of the month), edit the source code exported to GitHub, or open the third-party backend you plugged in. Great if you're solo at the controls and technically comfortable; a blocker for an editorial, marketing or sales team that needs to move autonomously. Our back-office was built for exactly that team: a structured CMS, segmented push in a few clicks, accounts and analytics in the same interface. And because this interface is itself a product we design with the same design standards as the apps it produces, it's used every day in 16 languages by teams that have never opened an IDE. **16 languages** — A back-office interface available in 16 languages — for local teams operating the app in their own language. ### 3. Customization: no choice between regenerating everything or customizing nothing Rork bets on absolute freedom: generated code, exportable to GitHub, editable line by line. It's valuable if you have a React Native or Swift developer in-house. It's technical debt if that person doesn't exist, and every change requires either a new precise prompt or a manual intervention in the code. GoodBarber frames the debate differently. The structured base saves weeks of plumbing — design system, navigation, sections, accounts, push, payment, everything is already wired. On top, the ceiling stays high: CSS and HTML injection, 190+ extensions in the Store, and the AI Extension Builder (in Beta) to generate any custom section by prompt — the produced code plugs into our APIs and lands in your native app, without starting from a blank page for every need. **190+** — Extensions available in the Store — plus the AI Extension Builder for custom needs. ## The real cost, beyond the sticker price Rork bills on usage — **credits that expire on the 1st of each month** — and hosting is left to plug in (and pay for) separately. Here's what each price really covers. ### GoodBarber — from $30/month $30/month (annual billing — $360/year) - Hosting and database (data in Europe) - Full CMS and back-office - Push notifications (10,000/month on the entry plan) - Built-in analytics - PWA output - 0% commission on e-commerce transactions Native iOS + Android apps — from $55/month ($660/year) - Native iOS + Android output (Swift + Kotlin) - In-app purchases (Apple StoreKit / Google Play Billing) - Authentication, loyalty, booking - 20 extensions included - Store-publishing support (GBTC) ### Rork - Free plan: 35 credits/month (daily cap of 5) - Junior $25/month, Middle $50/month, Senior $100/month (React Native + Expo) - Max plan $200/month — unlimited cloud builds, native iOS SwiftUI, App Store submission - Scale plans up to $1,800/month for heavy volumes - Credits reset on the 1st of the month, no carry-over - Hosting and database not included — Supabase, Firebase or a custom backend to plug in and pay for separately Rork's current pricing is available at rork.com/pricing. With GoodBarber, your app costs the same whether you change it ten times a day or once a month. With Rork, every prompt eats into a counter, the counter resets on every 1st, and hosting is still to plug in elsewhere. ## Which platform is right for you? ### Choose GoodBarber if… - Your app will be updated regularly by an editorial, marketing or sales team — with no developer in the loop - You want real native iOS and Android apps published on both stores, from a single configuration - You need segmented push notifications and analytics from day one, without integrating a third-party service - You sell (or plan to sell) in the app and want 0% commission on transactions - Your budget must be predictable — not indexed to the number of prompts or the backend services added on the side - You need custom features but prefer to generate them by prompt within a structured base (AI Extension Builder) - Hosting data in Europe is a requirement for your market or your compliance - You're an agency operating multiple client apps (Reseller program) ### Choose Rork if… - You're a developer or technical designer and the freedom of generated code (React Native or SwiftUI) is non-negotiable - You prototype in a single session, validate an idea fast, and maintenance won't rest on non-technical profiles - Your target is iOS-only and you want the shortest path from a prompt to an App Store build without opening Xcode (Rork Max) - You're comfortable plugging in Supabase, Firebase or a custom backend yourself and orchestrating push, payment and auth ## Frequently asked questions ### Is GoodBarber better than Rork? Not in absolute terms — the two tools answer different needs. Rork is an excellent AI mobile app generator, particularly with its Max offering that compiles native SwiftUI on cloud Macs and submits to the App Store in two clicks. GoodBarber is designed for what comes after the first version: a structured back-office so a non-technical team operates the app for years — editing content, sending push, selling, evolving the app — without going back through a prompt or reopening the code. ### Why talk about regressions on Rork? On every message sent to the AI, the model reinterprets the app's current state to produce the requested change. On a young project, it's smooth; as the code grows, the risk that a re-prompt destabilizes an already-validated screen increases — it's inherent to AI generation. GoodBarber avoids this problem by design: every change is targeted in the back-office, and untouched screens don't move. ### Does Rork Max produce real native iOS apps? Yes, Rork Max is probably the most ambitious native offering among AI generators: SwiftUI compiled with Xcode on cloud Macs, direct App Store submission from the browser. It's a real native iOS binary — but iOS only (no Android), and with no admin back-office to keep the app alive day to day. GoodBarber compiles in Swift and Kotlin from the same configuration, and the GBTC service handles submission with 91% recovery on apps initially rejected by Apple. ### How do you manage content day to day on Rork? Rork doesn't provide an admin interface. To publish an article, change a price or add a product, you either re-prompt the AI (and consume credits that expire on the 1st of the month), edit the source code exported to GitHub, or open the third-party backend you plugged in (Supabase, Firebase…). Our back-office was designed precisely for editorial, marketing or sales teams that must move without depending on a developer. ### How much does GoodBarber cost compared to Rork? GoodBarber starts at $360/year ($30/month equivalent) for the PWA, and at $660/year ($55/month) for native iOS + Android apps with store support — hosting, database, push and analytics included. Rork starts at $25/month (Junior, React Native via Expo) and climbs to $200/month for Rork Max (native iOS SwiftUI), with hosting and a backend to add on the side (Supabase, Firebase…) — not to mention that credits reset on every 1st of the month. ### Can you migrate a Rork app to GoodBarber? Rork code is exportable to GitHub, and content stored in the third-party backend (Supabase, Firebase…) is exportable in a standard format. On the GoodBarber side, the app isn't a port of React Native or Swift code: it's reconfigured in the back-office, where your articles, products or user accounts are imported via our API and the CMS. For a non-technical team, this reconfiguration is usually faster than maintaining an exported project. ## Ready to build an app that lives after the first prompt? Start for free — no credit card.

If you're learning to build apps or prototyping a simple-to-moderate project, Thunkable's block canvas is one of the most accessible on-ramps in the category. If you're publishing a consumer app that has to be unmistakably native in the stores and run for years, GoodBarber meets those criteria from the subscription up. **GoodBarber** - Native iOS & Android apps (Swift + Kotlin), compiled to binaries - Ready-to-configure features: push, 0% e-commerce, CMS, accounts - Deep customization: 190+ extensions, CSS/HTML, AI Extension Builder - Hosting, EU database, and store-publishing support included **Thunkable** - Drag-and-drop assembly of components + logic blocks (MIT App Inventor) - Native output marketed; block-interpretation layer disputed on big apps - Data in external services (Firebase, Airtable, Sheets) — no CMS - No source-code export; the app needs an active subscription to stay live Learning or prototyping a simple-to-moderate app? Thunkable's block canvas is a great on-ramp. Publishing a native app to operate and grow for years? That's GoodBarber. ## GoodBarber vs Thunkable: feature by feature Both tools assemble apps without traditional coding, but they aim at different finish lines — and the internal architecture decides how far you can go. | Feature | GoodBarber | Thunkable | What it means for you | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Native iOS & Android app | Compiled Swift + Kotlin binaries | Native marketed; block-interpretation layer (disputed) | GoodBarber ships unambiguously native binaries; Thunkable's runtime architecture is debated | | Progressive Web App | Included from the Standard plan | Web output on all tiers | Both cover the PWA case — a genuine cross-platform strength of Thunkable | | Build model | Configure integrated features | Assemble components + wire logic blocks | GoodBarber starts from ready features; Thunkable from bricks you connect one by one | | Setup without technical skills | Guided setup — deep customization when you need it | Very approachable at first; takes more skill as logic grows | GoodBarber keeps the effort flat; with blocks, the work scales with complexity | | Push notifications | Included, segmented, up to 250,000/month | Included (native) | Both offer native push | | Hosting | Included on every plan | Included while the subscription is active | Without a subscription, the published Thunkable app goes down | | Database | Included, data hosted in Europe | External — Firebase, Airtable, Sheets to set up and maintain | With Thunkable you stand up and maintain your own backend | | Editorial CMS back-office | Purpose-built for non-technical editors | Content in external data sources | Publishing content in GoodBarber means no spreadsheet or Firebase console to touch | | 0% commission mobile e-commerce | 22 gateways, 0% GoodBarber commission | No built-in module — assembled via API | If you sell in-app, GoodBarber covers the full case without third-party assembly | | Source-code export | Not applicable (managed platform) | No export — the app lives only inside Thunkable | With Thunkable, you can't take the code and leave if you hit a ceiling | | AI features | AI Extension Builder, RAG chatbot, MCP server + 30 Skills | AI Builder (prompt-to-app), Discuss Mode, image generation | Both have an AI layer — GoodBarber also covers operating the live app | | App Store publishing support | GBTC service — 91% recovery on Apple rejections | Self-managed — own Apple & Google developer accounts | Our team can handle your App Store and Google Play submissions | | Data hosted in Europe | All data on EU servers | US-based platform (San Francisco) | A concrete point for GDPR-sensitive projects or a European audience | | Best fit | Non-technical teams, SMBs, retailers, agencies | Learners, education, makers prototyping cross-platform | The right choice depends on your horizon: prototype and learn, or publish and operate | ## Three differences that change everything ### 1. Marketed "native" vs the unambiguous compiled binary Thunkable's marketing describes genuinely native iOS and Android output. Several community sources, on the contrary, describe a block-interpretation layer (sometimes likened to a WebView) that introduces a performance ceiling on larger apps. The exact runtime architecture is disputed between official and third-party sources — which, for an app you intend to grow, is exactly the question you don't want left open. GoodBarber leaves no such doubt: iOS compiles to native Swift, Android to native Kotlin — compiled binaries, not an interpreted layer. That matters for performance as the app grows, for OS-level integration, and for store review. **1 dl / 4 s** — in 152 countries, since 2011 ### 2. The block ceiling vs the integrated feature The most consistent theme across Thunkable's reviews isn't a missing feature — it's a curve. The block model is wonderful at the start and harder to manage as the app grows: "managing dozens of interconnected blocks becomes unwieldy." With block assembly, the work scales with the app's complexity — more screens, more logic, more blocks to wire, debug, and keep performant. With GoodBarber's integrated approach, e-commerce, push, and content management arrive pre-engineered to handle load and edge cases — the app's complexity doesn't translate into your maintenance burden. For a prototype, the block ceiling is invisible. For a consumer app you intend to grow, it's the whole question. **≈ 1/10th** — of the cost of custom mobile development — stack included in the subscription ### 3. Deep customization — without starting from zero Thunkable offers a genuinely flexible canvas: you wire the blocks you want, and even the lower tiers open up free third-party integrations. That freedom is real — but it comes with a flip side: every screen and every data binding is your responsibility, with no built-in CMS or e-commerce to carry the load. GoodBarber starts from a structured foundation — navigation, push, CMS, accounts, e-commerce pre-engineered — and keeps a very high customization ceiling: design tokens, CSS/HTML injection, 190+ extensions, and the AI Extension Builder (in Beta) that builds any custom section by prompt. You don't start from zero, but you can go very high — and you're not locked into the platform. **190+** — extensions, plus CSS/HTML and AI-built custom sections ## The real cost: what's in the price The subscription price doesn't tell the whole story. What matters is what you get for it — and what you'll have to assemble and maintain separately. ### GoodBarber — from €30/month €30/month (billed annually — €360/year) - Hosting and database (data in Europe) - CMS and back-office - Push notifications (10,000/month) - Built-in analytics - PWA output - 0% commission on e-commerce transactions Native iOS + Android apps — from €55/month - Native iOS + Android output (Swift + Kotlin) - Native in-app purchases (Apple StoreKit / Google Play Billing) - User authentication, loyalty, booking - 20 extensions included - Store-publishing support (GBTC) ### Thunkable - Free plan to get started (no app-store publishing) - A live published app sits a step up, single app - Unlimited published apps reserved for the top plan - Data backend (Firebase, Airtable, Sheets) paid separately - Apple ($99/yr) and Google Play ($25) developer accounts on you Thunkable's current pricing is available at thunkable.com/pricing. GoodBarber bundles hosting, database, push, CMS, e-commerce, and native builds into one subscription. With Thunkable, store publishing moves up a tier and the data backend is paid for and maintained separately. ## Which platform is right for you? ### Choose GoodBarber if… - You want unambiguously native iOS and Android apps — compiled Swift and Kotlin — under your own brand - You're a non-technical team managing content, push, and e-commerce from a back-office, not a spreadsheet and a block canvas - You're building for the long term: an app you'll operate daily and evolve for years - Your app includes e-commerce and you need 0% commission with integrated payment gateways - You want your entire stack — hosting, database, push, CMS, payments, analytics — in one subscription - You want custom features without hiring — the AI Extension Builder creates them by prompt - GDPR compliance and data hosting in Europe matter to your business ### Choose Thunkable if… - You're learning to build apps or teaching others — its MIT App Inventor heritage makes it one of the best on-ramps - You want a fun, accessible canvas to prototype simple-to-moderate apps cross-platform - Your project is unlikely to grow into a large, logic-heavy app where the block ceiling appears - You're comfortable managing your own data backend and don't need a built-in CMS or e-commerce module ## Frequently asked questions ### Is GoodBarber better than Thunkable? It depends on your goal. Thunkable is excellent for learning to build apps, teaching, and prototyping simple-to-moderate cross-platform projects — its MIT App Inventor heritage and block model make it one of the most accessible on-ramps. GoodBarber is built for a consumer app that needs to be unambiguously native in the stores, operated daily from a back-office, and grown over years. If your project is an app published and operated over the long run, GoodBarber is the most direct path. ### Does Thunkable build truly native apps? Thunkable markets its output as real native iOS and Android apps. However, multiple community sources describe a block-interpretation layer (sometimes likened to a WebView) that introduces a performance ceiling on larger apps, and the exact runtime architecture is disputed between official and third-party sources. GoodBarber compiles to native Swift and Kotlin binaries without that ambiguity. ### How much does GoodBarber cost compared to Thunkable? GoodBarber starts at €360/year (€30/month equivalent) — hosting, database in Europe, CMS, analytics, PWA, and push included. Native iOS + Android apps are available from €660/year (€55/month) with the Premium plan, e-commerce and store-publishing support included. With Thunkable, publishing a live app moves up a tier and your data backend (Firebase, Airtable, Sheets) is paid separately, on top of Apple and Google developer accounts. The right comparison is total cost of ownership, not the subscription line alone. ### Does Thunkable include e-commerce and a CMS? No. Thunkable has no documented built-in e-commerce module and no dedicated editorial CMS: content lives in external data sources like Firebase, Airtable, or Google Sheets, and a payment layer would have to be assembled via API integration. GoodBarber includes both a structured CMS back-office and a full e-commerce layer with 0% commission and 22 payment gateways. ### Can you export your source code from Thunkable, or migrate to GoodBarber? Thunkable does not allow raw source-code export — the app lives only inside their platform and must keep an active subscription to stay live, which reviewers frequently cite as vendor lock-in. On migration, your content and data can be imported into GoodBarber via the API and CMS; the interface structure will need to be reconfigured, since the two platforms have different architectures. GoodBarber's back-office is built to make that step fast for non-technical teams. ### Is Thunkable's block ceiling really a problem? Not for every project. For a class project, an MVP, or a prototype, the block model stays fast and forgiving. The ceiling appears as the app grows: reviewers consistently report that dozens of interconnected blocks become unwieldy and that the interpretation layer can slow down complex apps. GoodBarber configures pre-engineered features rather than assembling atomic blocks, so the app's complexity doesn't translate directly into your maintenance burden. ## Ready to build your native app?

You can create as many apps as you like for your customers, without restriction, and freely determine the price of each app. ### What exactly does the white label include? As a white label, each app and customer dashboard carries your identity: domain name, logo, and communication emails. GoodBarber remains in the background, so your brand is always front and center. ### What does the level of app customization mean? You can adapt every graphic detail — colors, typography, logos and layout — to create unique, impactful apps designed on solid aesthetic foundations. ### Can I integrate external systems? Yes: connect public APIs, import external content, and automate with no-code tools. ### How does access management work for my customers and staff? You can assign roles and manage permissions for each user, whether they're your customers or collaborators — ideal for secure access and collaborative app management. ### What's the difference between a native app and a PWA? Native iOS and Android apps offer maximum performance with seamless integration of device functionality. PWAs enable wide accessibility via the browser, without the need for application stores. ### How can GoodBarber support its resellers? GoodBarber offers tailor-made support, with experts on hand to answer questions and help at every step of creating and managing your apps. ### Is it possible to develop additional features with GoodBarber? Yes, for both content and eCommerce apps. As a Reseller, you can use the "Custom code" sections to develop specific functionalities (requires HTML, JavaScript, CSS skills). You can also access your application's hidden settings file for advanced design customization. You can set up automation processes between your app and external tools via public APIs or no-code tools (Zapier and Make extensions, connecting to thousands of services such as Gmail, Excel and Mailchimp). GoodBarber also lets you import content hosted on other platforms via custom content feeds. If you lack resources, you can call on GoodBarber's team of experts, who offer tailor-made developments for resellers. Full details are on the GoodBarber for developers page. ### How does my customer manage his app? You can give customers access to the back office of their app, choosing precisely which sections they can contribute to and which are restricted: sending push notifications, checking statistics, creating advertising campaigns, publishing content — you choose which pages are visible. ### Can I replace an existing app on the Stores with one built with GoodBarber? Yes. Once you've built your app with GoodBarber, submit an update for that app on the Store. You (or your client) must own the Apple Developer and Google Publisher accounts used to publish the app. End users simply update the app on their smartphone (no re-download needed). ### At what price should I sell the apps I create? GoodBarber does not intervene in the commercial relationship between you and your customer and takes no commission on your sales — you're free to set any price. Factor in the creation of the app, plus regular updates and modification requests several times a year; include these services in your rates. Also carry out a market study of your target audience's budgets and the competition in your sector. ### How can I test the Reseller account for free?

Consider transaction fees, transaction security and ease of use when choosing. ### How do you draw up a model contract for the creation and sale of mobile applications? Steps for a basic contract template: - Determine terms and conditions: payments, deliveries, warranties, terms of use, etc. - Draft your contract using word processing software or an online contract template. - Include confidentiality provisions if necessary. - Have a lawyer or legal drafting professional review the contract for clarity, completeness and compliance with local laws. - Sign the contract with your customer to formalize the agreement. Contracts vary according to local laws and your company's specific needs; work with a legal professional to tailor it. --- # Custom mobile app development - Custom app design service Source: https://www.goodbarber.com/custom-development/ GoodBarber offers a custom mobile app creation service to meet unique business needs.

Screenshots/mockups of the app you want to create are produced first, to visualize the user interface and determine required features and interactions, in close collaboration with you. 2. The app is then developed with the appropriate technologies and tools, tested for proper functioning and stability, and released. ## Contact To learn more, schedule a consultation with a GoodBarber mobile app creation consultant via the quote request form on the page (fields: first name, name, email, company, phone, website, message). --- # GoodBarber developer tools Source: https://www.goodbarber.com/developers/ Discover all the tools you can use to make your GoodBarber app even more tailor-made: automate workflows with integrations, develop your own features with plugins.

A native app is an app built with the native language of the device on which it will be installed. The app is fast, smooth and delivers an outstanding user experience. The GoodBarber iOS and Android apps are 100% native. ### What is a PWA? A Progressive Web App operates within a browser. It combines the best of web concepts and mobile apps. GoodBarber generates Progressive Web Apps with Angular JS 4.0. On mobile, tablet, laptop and desktop, they offer a one-of-a-kind user experience. ### Do I own the content delivered through a GoodBarber app? GoodBarber is the technology that allows you to create, organize and deliver your content to your audience: images, logo, audio files, text. You are the sole owner of the content created through the tool and will remain so. ### Does my app function offline? Yes, both the native app and the PWA. Upon first launching the app, the content is cached, allowing later usage offline. The native app relies on iOS or Android's SDK features, while the PWA relies on the service worker set up in the browser. PWAs work offline in all browsers except Safari. ### Can I set up a domain name for my web app? Yes, all domain extensions are managed. You can assign a domain name to your PWA and your users will access it through the URL of your choice. ### How can I optimize the SEO of my PWA? The management interface lets you edit the main HTML tags for your PWA. Each page also has its own URL, and the code is designed (along with reduced generation time) so that indexation by search engines is optimized. ### How long does it take to create my app? A few hours, thanks to the models, images, content and other elements ready at your disposal. It may take longer if you explore the infinite customization possibilities further. ### How long does it take for my app to be online? For a Play Store publication, count about 24 hours. The iOS version of your app is built and published by GoodBarber, under your Apple developer account. To ensure your project complies with App Store guidelines, the GoodBarber team runs a thorough review of your app before submission — a mandatory step requiring human intervention, committed to within 72 business hours. Apple may take several days to review and publish your application. Your PWA will be accessible from your domain name a few hours after setup. ### Will my app still function after my iPhone or Android phone is updated? Yes, GoodBarber engineers ensure that your app operates seamlessly with each evolution of the phone's operating system. On your end, you only need to update your app with the latest version of the GoodBarber technology. ### Are there any limitations to the number of users I should be aware of? Many GoodBarber applications have more than a million users. The technical infrastructure is dimensioned to support high volumes of traffic. There is no limit to the number of users who download and view your app, and each app benefits from a minimum of 10 GB of storage (depending on your offer). ### How can I make money with my app? Several ways: - **Advertising**: display advertising within your content app, either through an external ad network or the internal ad server. - **Subscriptions**: monetize your content with the Memberships extension — premium content reserved for members who purchased one of your subscription packages, with subscription rules you control. - **Paid app**: publish a paid app on the App Store and the Play Store. GoodBarber takes no commission on the revenue generated from your app. - **Sell products**: with the eCommerce solutions, sell products online, locally or worldwide (grocery stores, restaurants, retailers...), with several online and offline payment options. GoodBarber takes no commission on the revenue generated. ### How can I get help creating my app? Get in touch with the GoodBarber team whenever needed, directly from the management interface of your app. The back office also gives access to the user guide and the blog (https://www.goodbarber.com/blog/). ### Can I publish my app during the trial period? You need a subscription to publish your app on the stores. The free 30-day trial period offers the opportunity to explore all features to see if the platform fits your project; during this period you can also build and test your app. ### Can GoodBarber build custom features for me? GoodBarber is a Do It Yourself (DIY) platform, which means it does not create apps or build custom features for clients. However, thanks to user feedback, the product is constantly improved with new features. ### Do I need to create 3 different apps: PWA, Android, iOS? No. Through the GoodBarber management interface (the back office), you can create your PWA and native iOS & Android apps from one single tool. ### Can I customize my app? You can add plugins or your own code with the HTML section. In the back office, you can browse the developer section of the user guide or get in touch with the GoodBarber team for more information. ## Need more information?
