Dreamflow vs RapidNative (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Dreamflow if

• Fits if you want one Flutter codebase for iPhone, Android and the web
• Works for FlutterFlow users who want an AI-first tool from the same team

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you don't want Flutter, because that's all it builds and all its Git import accepts
• Not for you if you build as a team, as the docs say several people can't work in the same repository and send collaboration to Enterprise
• Pricey if you need Git, since connecting a repository takes Pro at $90 a month
• Tight if you're staying free: the 10 AI credits are a one-time grant, and store deployment and code export need Hobby at $20
• Watch out: it connects to three services, Firebase, Supabase and GitHub, with no API of its own on record

Pick RapidNative if

• Fits if you want a phone-app prototype from a sketch or description
• Works for founders who want React Native code they can take over

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you stay free: 20 credits a month and 5 screens a project
• Not for you if you want private projects free, as they start at Starter
• Watch out: code export, private projects and team features begin at $20 a month
• Watch out: Git integration is listed as coming soon
• Pricey if you want store publishing: it goes through LetsDeployIt, a separate flat-fee service

Dreamflow

• The Free plan's 10 AI credits are a one-time starter grant that does not renew.
• App Store and Google Play deployment, code export and local runs need Hobby at $20 a month; Git needs Pro at $90.
• Dreamflow builds Flutter apps only, and its Git import accepts only Flutter repositories.
• The docs say several people cannot work in the same repository; team collaboration is routed to the Enterprise plan.

RapidNative

• The free plan stops at 20 credits a month, 5 screens a project and no code export; projects there are public by default.
• Code export, private projects and team collaboration start at Starter ($20 a month).
• Git integration is listed as coming soon on every plan.
• Publishing to the App Store and Google Play goes through LetsDeployIt, a separate flat-fee service.

Dreamflow

Agent, canvas and code in sync

A project can be changed by prompting the AI agent, by editing the visual canvas and widget tree, or by writing code, and each change shows up in the other two.

Screen Planner

Before generation starts, the planner lays out the app's screens so they can be reviewed and adjusted, a step the docs describe as a way to cut later rework.

Realtime preview and device testing

A managed run session compiles and previews the app live, and a QR code opens that preview on a phone. Paid plans can also run builds locally on simulators and real devices.

Firebase and Supabase integrations

Built-in connections to Firebase and Supabase give an app its authentication and database without separate setup.

Deployment to web and app stores

One-click web deployment is included on the Free plan. One-click deployment to the App Store and Google Play starts on Hobby.

Code export and Git

The output is a Flutter project with code as the source of truth. Full code export starts on Hobby, and connecting a Git repository needs Pro or above.

RapidNative

Prompt, sketch, image or spec input

Describe an app in text, sketch it, drop in a screenshot or upload a product requirements document, and the builder generates the screens.

React Native and Expo code

Output is standard React Native with Expo and Nativewind styling. The vendor says you own the code; export and the in-browser code editor start on the Starter plan.

Point-and-prompt editing

Select an element on a screen and describe the change you want, and the AI edits that part of the code.

Backend included

Every project gets a Postgres database, authentication and file storage, and can be pointed at your own Supabase project from the settings.

Phone preview

Scan a QR code to run the app on a phone through Expo Go while you build, without Xcode or Android Studio.

Store publishing and screenshots

A connected paid service, LetsDeployIt, submits apps to the App Store and Google Play, and Appshots designs store screenshots using the same credits.
