iOS AI Agent
A real AI coding agent you drive from your iPhone. Type or speak a task, close the app, come back to deployed code. The agent runs on VibeKit's always-on servers and your app runs in its own container, so your phone is just the remote.
Why an iOS-first AI agent
- Long-running by design. Tasks survive your phone going to sleep, the app being killed, or you switching tabs. The agent is server-side; iOS is just the screen.
- Talk to the agent. Dictate a task with the mic and have replies read aloud. Add a phone line ($9.99/mo, 60 minutes a month; Pro includes one) and you can call your app's agent hands-free while you walk or drive; it answers only your verified phone, after your PIN.
- Push notifications when done. The agent buzzes your lock screen the moment a task finishes. No polling, no checking back.
- Your code isn't locked in. Every app's code lives in a Git repo. Export to my GitHub copies it with its full history to a private repo in your account, so you can open it on a laptop and pick up where the agent left off.
What you can do from your phone
The iOS app is a control panel for AI coding agents, not a sandboxed in-app IDE. Here's the kind of work that actually fits the form factor:
- Ship small UI tweaks ("make the hero copy shorter, the CTA tighter")
- Diagnose production issues from a coffee shop ("why is /api/v1/users returning 500?")
- Kick off long-running refactors before bed and read the diff in the morning
- Tell the agent what you want next while waiting in line, it works while you don't
How it works
1. Open VibeKit on iPhone → + → Build an app → describe it
2. VibeKit sets up a container, a Git repo and a live URL
3. Chat with the agent (type or dictate) to make changes
4. Close the app, work continues on the server
5. Push notification when the task finishes
iOS app vs. typical "AI app builders"
Many "build an app on your phone" tools render a preview that runs only inside their app. That is fine for demos, but it can leave you without exportable code, a real domain, or anything to hand to a developer. VibeKit's iOS app works the other way: no in-app preview, but every app gets a live URL at yourapp.vibekit.bot, its own Fargate container, and a Git repo you can export to your own GitHub. Keep building from your phone, or take the code to your laptop.
Pricing on iOS
The Free plan works with BYOK: connect your own Anthropic or OpenAI key, or sign in with your Claude or ChatGPT plan, and AI calls go straight to the provider with no VibeKit markup. Without a key, use the free models at no cost, or platform models paid from credits. Paid plans (Starter $9.99/mo, Builder $24.99/mo, Pro $49.99/mo) add workspaces, always-on apps, custom domains, a database and monthly AI credit, and Pro includes a phone line.

FAQ
Is there an iOS app for an AI coding agent?
Yes. VibeKit's iOS app on the App Store is a control panel for your AI coding agents. Each app you build gets its own agent. You type or dictate a task on your phone, the agent does the work on VibeKit's servers and deploys your app to its own container, and you get a push notification when the task finishes. It is not a sandboxed in-app preview; it is a remote control for an agent that keeps working after you close the app.
Can I write code on my iPhone with an AI agent?
You don't write code on the phone; you delegate work to an agent that writes the code. Type or speak the change you want, and the agent edits files, runs the build, deploys, and reports back. Apps you import from GitHub stay in your repo. For the rest, Export to my GitHub copies the code with its full history to a private repo in your account, so a developer on a laptop can pick up where the agent left off.
Do iOS AI coding apps actually run code on the phone?
No, and they shouldn't. iOS sandboxing limits what an app can execute, and battery and memory limits would stop anything non-trivial anyway. Useful AI coding agents run on servers; the iOS app sends the prompt, streams the agent's progress and replies, and shows your app's logs. VibeKit follows that pattern.
Can I voice-call the AI agent from my phone?
Yes, with a phone line ($9.99/mo add-on with 60 minutes a month; Pro includes one line). It gives your app a real US phone number that answers only your verified phone, after you key in your PIN, and you talk to your app's agent hands-free. Without a phone line you can still dictate tasks with the mic in the chat and have the agent's replies read aloud.
What happens when I close the iOS app while the agent is working?
The agent keeps working. The app is just a remote: the agent runs on VibeKit's always-on agent gateway, and your app runs in its own Fargate container. Close the app, lock your phone, walk away. When the task finishes, you get a push notification that opens the conversation.
