I think you’d just have to unfollow sources that publish AI slop. But that doesn’t seem too difficult with RSS, I can’t think of any source that sometimes publishes AI slop and sometimes I want to read their stuff. I guess if you tried to put an X feed in there, but I doubt you can do that now anyway.

A similar product in the mobile space is Rork - I haven't used it but I've seen it on twitter a bit. I definitely wouldn't be surprised to see Apple acquire one of them.

I think it's fair to say that's a benefit of web apps over native apps in many cases. But for the kind of business app use case they're talking about, it's also a tradeoff. I can imagine a lot of business apps where you don't want to send the data to the server of a Replit etc. and doing all the processing local is a benefit.

They say they're targeting Mac only for now, so it could be native code, or they could just have not tested/refined their prompt for other platforms yet.

I'd be curious how well Claude Code works for a native Swift app on macOS, if that's the platform you're on. I've found it extremely good at iOS apps so my guess is it would be equally good at building a native macOS app with the same stack.

I think their value add if you’re comfortable with Claude Code is probably some nice tooling for the packaging, and they probably sign apps for you too?
