How It Works
Describe It. AI Builds It. Ship It.
No drag-and-drop. No code. Just describe what you want and let AI do the rest.
Describe Your App
Tell CatDoes what you want — a website, a mobile app, or both. No wireframes, no code. Just describe your idea.
AI Builds It
The Compose Agent works in the cloud — handling code, design, and backend setup. It spins up subagents for parallel tasks. Close your browser, it keeps going.
Deploy Everywhere
Publish to the web with a custom domain, submit to the App Store and Google Play, or do all three from one project. No Xcode or Android Studio needed.

Base44's App Store publishing wraps a web app in a native shell, not a native app. Base44's backend (proprietary MongoDB) cannot be exported. CatDoes builds real native mobile apps and uses CatDoes Cloud which all use open-source and industry standard technologies, so your backend is portable.
Platform
Everything You Need to Build, Ship, and Scale.
Web apps, mobile apps, or both — from one platform.
Turn any website into a mobile app
Paste a URL from Base44, WordPress, Shopify, or anywhere else. An AI agent studies the site and ships a native mobile app that matches.
See every screen, on every device
The multi-page canvas lays your whole app out at once. Switch between phone, tablet, and desktop sizes, or scan a QR code to test it live on your iPhone or Android.
Real apps. iOS, Android, and the web.
CatDoes builds native iOS and Android apps with native UI and gestures — not web wrappers. Publish websites to custom domains. Users get an app that belongs on their device.
Edit the code. Own the code.
Open any file from the dashboard and edit it yourself. Export the full codebase anytime you want.
Start from any GitHub repo
Import your existing code and keep building with an AI agent. Push changes, open PRs, stay in sync with your team.
A cloud agent with its own computer
The AI agent runs in the cloud on its own computer. It installs packages, runs the tests, and fixes its own errors. You don't have to watch it work.
Native Mobile
Native Apps. Not Web Wrappers.
Base44 can publish to the App Store and Google Play — but it wraps a web app in a native shell. That means no push notifications, larger download sizes, and the limits of a PWA inside a container. CatDoes builds native mobile apps from the ground up. Real native performance. Real native capabilities.
CatDoes Cloud
Backend Included. And It's Yours to Keep.
Every CatDoes app gets a full backend — database, auth, file storage, edge functions, and real-time events. Built on Postgres, so your data is portable. Included on every plan, including Free. US and EU regions. No vendor lock-in, no separate billing.

FAQ
Can CatDoes build websites?
Yes. As of v4.1, CatDoes builds websites and native mobile apps. You can build a website, a mobile app, or both in the same project. The agent works across them.
How is CatDoes different from Base44?
Both build web apps with vibe coding. The main differences: (1) CatDoes builds real native iOS and Android apps; Base44's App Store publishing wraps a web app in a native shell. (2) CatDoes Cloud is Supabase-based (Postgres) and portable — you can export your backend. Base44's backend is proprietary. (3) CatDoes includes an autonomous cloud agent (Compose) that keeps working after you close your browser.
Doesn't Base44 also publish to the App Store?
Base44 can generate files for App Store submission, but it wraps a web app in a native shell — not a native app. That means no push notifications, larger download sizes, and PWA limitations on some devices. CatDoes builds native mobile apps from the ground up with full platform capabilities.
Can I import my Base44 project?
Yes. Paste your Base44 project URL and CatDoes uses it as a reference to build a native mobile version of your app. You can also import any GitHub repo directly into CatDoes as a project.
