Bilt
Bilt is an AI-powered mobile app development platform that transforms Figma designs into production-ready iPhone and Android applications. By eliminating the traditional handoff process between designers and developers, Bilt enables teams to go from design to deployed app in minutes rather than months. The platform preserves every pixel, spacing decision, and design intent while generating clean, ownable code that lives on GitHub.
Product Highlights
- Figma-to-App Conversion: Import designs directly from Figma using a dedicated plugin, with frames appearing in Bilt within seconds complete with thumbnails and layout structure.
- True-to-Design Rendering: Maintains exact spacing, fonts, colors, and visual hierarchy from the original design file—never approximates from screenshots or compressed exports.
- Cross-Platform Native Apps: Generates smooth, performant applications that run natively on both iOS and Android devices without requiring separate codebases.
- Full Code Ownership: Exports production code to GitHub repositories, giving teams complete freedom to modify, extend, or migrate their applications as needed.
- No-Account Collaboration: Once a Figma file is added to a project, any team member can access and build from its frames without requiring individual Figma licenses.
Use Cases
- Rapid Prototyping: Product teams can validate design concepts by turning static mockups into interactive mobile experiences that stakeholders can install and test on real devices.
- Design-to-Development Handoff: Eliminates documentation-heavy handoff processes by automatically translating design intent into functional code, reducing miscommunication and rework.
- Startup MVP Development: Founders with design skills can ship v1 applications without hiring mobile developers, accelerating time-to-market while retaining full technical control.
- Agency Client Delivery: Design agencies can offer end-to-end app development services, delivering working products rather than just design files while maintaining brand consistency.
Target Audience
Bilt serves product designers, design-led startups, and development teams who want to bridge the gap between visual design and shipped software. The platform is ideal for organizations that prioritize design quality and iteration speed over traditional development workflows, particularly those already invested in Figma as their primary design tool.
