THE WHOLE LOOP

Everything between "I want an app" and "it's on the store"

Expo is a build service. AppForge is the full lifecycle — generation, build, ship, update, and maintenance — with AI doing the heavy lifting at every step.

🤖

AI app generation

Powered by appbuilderai (Claude-based). Describe the app in plain English; get a complete, runnable React Native / Expo project — screens, navigation, state, API wiring, and assets.

🏗️

Cloud builds (iOS + Android)

Signed .ipa and .aab binaries compiled on the AppForge cloud — backed by free GitHub-CI EAS builds on our own infra. Live logs, no per-minute meter.

⚡

OTA hot-patches

An EAS-Update-style service: push JS & asset fixes to live apps instantly, no new store review. Channel-based rollouts and one-click rollback. Bundled, not MAU-metered.

📤

Guided store submission

We assemble your metadata, screenshot checklist, privacy nutrition label & Play data-safety form, then hand you one-click submit to App Store Connect and Play Console.

🔧

Self-maintaining apps

Describe a change — the AI patches the code, rebuilds, and OTA-ships it. Your app keeps evolving without a developer on retainer.

🔁

CI/CD pipelines

Every project gets a generated CI/CD pipeline (build → test → distribute). Wire your own GitHub repo, or let AppForge host it. App Center refugees feel at home.

🧩

No lock-in

Output is a standard React Native / Expo project. Eject anytime, bring your own signing keys, your own store accounts. We don't trap your codebase.

📊

Build & crash insight

Build history, artifact downloads, and OTA adoption metrics in one dashboard — covering the analytics gap left by App Center's retirement.

🔐

Your keys, your accounts

Bring-your-own Apple/Google credentials and signing keys, stored encrypted. We never own your developer identity — and we're honest that you must clear the stores' ID verification yourself.

The honest part

What AppForge does NOT do: bypass Apple's or Google's identity verification. Those gates (Apple Developer $99/yr + gov ID; Google Play $25 + ID) belong to the app stores, not to any build platform — building our own backend doesn't change that, and neither does Expo's. What we do: make generation, building, updating, and submission one-click, and walk you through the one step the stores legally require you to do yourself.

Built on the empire's own stack

AppForge isn't a thin wrapper — it's wired to engines the Elite AI Empire already runs in production:
