Modaal is an end-to-end AI agent for native iOS in Swift. It turns your idea into the artifacts serious apps require: PRD, MVP scope, user/data flows, navigation, and growth-ready architecture—then drives implementation as vertical slices so you ship safely, step by step. Modaal prioritizes maintainability: consistent structure across screens, clean module boundaries, and small SwiftUI diffs you can review. Connect the repo, and keep building with your team as the product scales.

Hello Product Hunt! Ivan here - Founder of Modaal.
I’ve spent the last 17 years building mobile products. I shipped hundreds of apps, led development teams, and worked as an engineer at Uber and Meta - building native apps at every scale, from scrappy prototypes to systems used by millions.
I believe in the benefits of building fully native mobile apps - this gives you the most flexibility, control, and native performance, the fullest possible access to native OS features, and the most powerful and expressive development languages and tools.
Today, with AI coding agents, anybody can start building a fully native mobile app - in minutes. However, as the projects scale, AI agents lose the context, the code bloats and stops doing what it was supposed to, small changes start taking hours and break something unexpected. These problems aren't new, and are solved in high-performing engineering teams with the help of proper planning - to gather the context before building, architecture - to keep the project scalable and maintainable over time, code review - to keep the code consistent, and testing - to make sure changing one screen doesn't break another.
Modaal brings the best engineering practices from high-performing teams. It is an orchestrator between you, your favorite AI coding agent, and Xcode, allowing you to create projects that stay maintainable as they scale.
As a true senior engineering team, Modaal:
Gathers context and creates comprehensive specifications.
Plans ahead: incorporates app architecture, and verifies every decision with you.
Maintains architecture - so what it builds stays consistent.
Automatically builds and fixes errors after every step.
We’re keeping pricing as transparent as possible:
You pay a small platform fee for Modaal.
You use the agent you already pay for (Cursor, Claude Code, etc.).
If you don’t pay for an agent yet, the combined cost (Modaal + agent) is still far lower than vibecoding tools that charge per credits.
Result: predictable monthly cost for building apps - no "surprise credit burn" when you're debugging.
Who it's for
Developers who are already using Cursor / Claude Code (or similar).
Technical PMs and designers who can write clear specs and want true native output.
or Just Builders who want to ship their own product and aren't afraid to install Xcode and plug in an agent.
We’re early, shipping fast, and we want your brutal feedback - drop a comment, I’ll be happy to get back! 🚀
@ivan_misuno exciting to see it live!
Saw you guys launched on LinkedIn, good luck! With the integration of Claude in to XCode I wonder what the additional value is of a tool like this? even less technical?
kukumber:
@kasje Hi Kas! Good question. What we bring to the table right now: an app template (architecture, module organization, knowledge base for the agent) that scales from very simple projects to apps that have hundreds of screens and complex internal logic. And this is only the first step.
Congrats on the launch! Question for a PM: once the agent does its thing, how much manual polishing of the UI or code is typically needed, or is it truly a 100% hand-off?
kukumber:
@valeriia_kuna That's a very good question. For this we're asking for as much feedback as possible, and are open to work with builders in a 1-1 setup.

From my experience, it becomes possible to build finished products while staying in the AI-only workflow.
I'm curious of your experience!
As a product person, what caught my eye here is the spec-first approach. Most AI coding tools want you to describe a feature and then generate code. Modaal starts where I actually work: PRDs, user flows, architecture decisions. That means one stays grounded in the product thinking layer, while the tool handles implementation. The big advantage for me here is that what comes out isn't a throwaway demo but a real native codebase with proper structure that a dev team could actually pick up and build on. This changes prototyping from "validate and rebuild" to "validate and keep going."

Launches are very personal for me. It’s like delivering a baby — you spend months building, then one intense day and it feels like success… but in reality it’s just the beginning of the whole journey.
Modaal is a special tool for me. I wish it existed 15 years ago, when I shipped my first native apps in my agency in Ukraine. I’m a builder at heart — I’ve never written a single line of code, but I’ve always had ideas.
Modaal helps builders (PMs, designers, founders) turn a clear idea into a high-quality, truly native Swift/SwiftUI iOS app — not a demo, not “web in a wrapper”.
If you’ve tried AI coding and hit the point where projects grow, context drifts, and “small changes” break everything — that’s exactly what we’re solving.
Our goal today: get your honest feedback and make this MVP to a product that you tell is "10/10".
