Rocket vs Rork

Rocket

• Founders who want market research and the app build in one product
• Teams that want unlimited members on a flat platform fee
• Building a Next.js web app and a Flutter mobile app from prompts

Rork

• Non-developers who want to ship a native app to the App Store or Google Play
• Founders building subscription apps, with RevenueCat paywalls built in
• Developers who want an AI-written Swift or Kotlin codebase to continue in an IDE

Rocket

• The Free plan is a one-time grant of 20 credits that does not refill each month.
• Full Solve reports and competitor Intelligence need the Rocket plan at $50 a month or Booster; Pro has Light Solve only.
• Custom domains and downloading the project as a .zip file need a paid plan.
• Canceling a plan makes all unused credits, including purchased add-ons, expire at the end of the billing cycle.

Rork

• The Free plan runs Design mode only: it proposes screens but cannot build, test or publish a working app.
• iPad, Apple Watch and Vision Pro apps, native games and iOS widgets need Rork Max, from $200 a month.
• iOS builds and cloud simulator sessions are charged in credits on top of the message that started them.
• The iPhone app lists Swift and web projects only; Android projects do not appear in it.

Rocket

Build: prompt-to-app generation

Describe an app in chat and Rocket generates a Next.js web app or a Flutter mobile app, which can then be changed through chat, visual editing or the code view.

Solve research reports

Solve answers a business or market question with a structured, sourced report. Free and Pro get Light Solve; Full Solve needs the Rocket or Booster plan.

Intelligence competitor monitoring

Follows chosen companies across nine signal areas, including website changes, hiring and pricing, and delivers daily briefs. Included on Rocket and Booster.

Launch and custom domains

Web apps publish to a staging URL before going live, and custom domains need a paid plan. Flutter projects can be downloaded as an APK or prepared for the App Store and Google Play.

Connectors

The docs list more than 26 services that can be wired into an app from a prompt, covering payments, databases, AI models, email, analytics and CRM.

Code access and GitHub sync

Source files can be viewed and edited in the browser and pushed to GitHub, with two-way sync for Next.js TypeScript projects. Downloading a .zip needs a paid plan.

Rork

Native iPhone, Android and web apps

The agent writes SwiftUI for iPhone, Kotlin with Jetpack Compose for Android, and React for the web, and can convert an app between the three platforms.

Design, Plan and Build modes

Design mode proposes screens and a look before any code exists, Plan mode writes a plan for review, and Build mode produces working code on paid plans.

Cloud simulator and device testing

Apps run on a cloud iOS simulator or Android emulator beside the chat. The Rork Max iPhone app installs and runs Swift builds directly on a phone.

Store publishing tools

Rork uploads iPhone builds to TestFlight and the App Store, generates an AAB for Google Play, and includes an AI App Store Reviewer and Screenshot Studio.

Rork Cloud backend

A hosted backend that the agent provisions when an app needs to store data. It is in beta and free during the beta; Supabase and Firebase are also supported.

GitHub sync and code access

A two-way GitHub sync exports the project, and an iPhone app can be opened in Xcode. Editing code by hand in dev mode needs a paid plan.
