About
In practice. What you can do with Rork.
Rork is an AI-powered mobile app builder that generates React Native (iOS + Android) applications from text descriptions. Describe your app — a to-do list with reminders, a fitness tracker, a simple marketplace — and Rork generates the code, interface and logic.
The Junior plan at $25/month (≈€23) gives enough credits to validate an idea and build a demo. In February 2026, Rork launched Rork Max, a premium version that generates native Swift apps (iOS only, more performant).
Positioned for indie hackers, solopreneurs and non-technical founders who want to launch a mobile MVP without going through a developer. $15M raise in April 2026 — strong traction signal.
