Anything review

An AI agent that builds web and native mobile apps, with its own database, hosting and app-store submission.

Anything is the new name of Create (create.xyz), whose maker is still Create, Inc., and Apple removed Anything's own iPhone app from the App Store in March 2026 25,26,28,32.

Verdict

Anything suits non-developers who want one tool to build a web or mobile app, take payments and submit it to the App Store or Google Play 8,9,16,17. The catch is cost and control: building needs a paid plan, credit use per prompt varies, GitHub sync is still "coming soon", and the few independent reviews complain about billing and credits 2,3,20,29.

Good fit if you are

  • Non-developers who want a native iOS or Android app in the stores without touching Xcode
  • Solo founders who want database, sign-in, payments and hosting in one tool
  • Builders who want an agent that tests the app in a real browser and fixes what breaks (Max plans)

Look elsewhere if you are

  • Developers who want to edit code by hand or sync with GitHub
  • Teams that need single sign-on, a security certification or a clear no-training policy
  • Buyers who need to know the cost of each change in advance

Pros and cons

What we like

  • Builds React web apps and React Native apps for iOS and Android, and handles the build and upload to TestFlight and Google Play 5,9,10.
  • Every project gets a built-in PostgreSQL database with separate development and production copies, plus sign-in and backend functions 11,12,13.
  • Max mode opens the app in a real browser or a simulated iOS device, tries it like a user and fixes what breaks 7.
  • Stripe for web and RevenueCat for in-app purchases are built in, with 100+ integrations and any outside API through backend functions 14,15,16,17.
  • Every plan price, credit amount and top-off price is public, and failed generations can be refunded in credits 2,3.

What to watch

  • Credit use per prompt varies with the task, so the cost of a change is not known in advance 3.
  • Code view is for browsing and searching files, GitHub sync is still "coming soon", and export is a zip download 6,20.
  • No subscription refunds; annual plans are charged upfront and are non-refundable 2.
  • Apple removed Anything's own iPhone app from the App Store in March 2026 28.
  • No security certification or model-training policy is published; the privacy policy dates from January 2024 25.

What Anything is

Anything is an AI agent that builds mobile and web apps from a description, covering design, backend, database, sign-in, payments, hosting and App Store submission 23. It is made by Create, Inc., whose earlier builder ran at create.xyz; that address now serves the Anything site 25,32. PYMNTS reported that Anything debuted publicly on August 7, 2025, with funding led by Bessemer Venture Partners and Shopify founder Tobi Lütke among the backers 26. In September 2025 TechCrunch reported an $11 million round at a $100 million valuation led by Footwork, after a $2 million annualized run rate in two weeks; the founders, Dhruv Amin and Marcus Lowe, are former Google colleagues 27.

Unlike rivals that rely on Supabase, Anything builds its database and other back-end pieces itself 27; its databases run on PostgreSQL via Neon 11. In March 2026 Apple removed Anything's own iPhone app from the App Store under App Review Guideline 2.5.2 28. Apps built with Anything are still submitted to the App Store through TestFlight from the web builder 9.

What it can do

You describe the app in chat, attach screenshots or files, or paste a Figma link, and pick a mode: Thinking for most work, Fast for small edits, Plan or Discussion to talk without changing code, and Max for autonomous work 5. The agent generates React for web and React Native for mobile, creates database tables and functions, adds sign-up and login pages, and reads runtime logs to fix errors on its own 5,11,12. Max opens the app in a real browser or a simulated iOS device, clicks through flows and keeps fixing until the goal is met, sometimes for 100 or more steps over 30 minutes 7.

You test in a preview with its own database, then publish to a created.app subdomain or your own domain; on publish, Anything lists the database changes that will go live and asks you to approve them 18,19,23. For mobile, you preview in Expo Go and run a built-in App Store review check; after you enter your Apple ID, Anything builds the app and uploads it to App Store Connect, usually in 30 minutes or less 8,9. Google Play submission is in beta and uploads a draft to the internal testing track 10. Every change is kept in version history, and you can restore any earlier version from chat or the sidebar 6. Older projects move to the new v2 architecture as a copy, and an app already in the App Store does not follow that copy 24.

  • Actions. The agent writes React web apps and React Native mobile apps, designs the database, adds sign-in, backend functions and payments, and reads runtime logs to fix errors on its own 5,11,12,13. In Max mode it runs the app in a real browser or a simulated iOS device, tests flows such as signup and checkout, and fixes what it finds 7.
  • Setup. Describe the app in the browser builder, by text message or through the CLI, which is rolling out to select accounts; a paid plan is required before the first build starts 2,6,22.
  • Owning the code. Download the full project as a zip from the Code tab and the database as SQL files; GitHub sync is "coming soon" 11,20.
  • Analytics. The builder shows logs from the running preview, including errors and warnings 6, and the CLI reads development and deployment logs 22.

Pricing

Building requires a paid plan 2. Pro costs $24 a month billed monthly, or $19 a month billed yearly as one $228 payment, and includes 20,000 credits, private projects, custom domains and App Store submission 1,2. Max plans start at $239 a month ($199 billed yearly) for 220,000 credits and add the autonomous Max agent; larger Max tiers run up to $1,079 a month for 990,000 credits 2,7. Monthly credits expire at the end of each cycle; top-offs cost $12 per 10,000 credits and do not expire 3. Credits pay for every build message and for AI integrations your published app runs, and what each prompt costs varies with the task 3. Failed generations can be refunded in credits, but subscriptions are not refunded 2,3. A builder who needs a custom domain and private projects pays at least $24 a month, plus $99 a year for an Apple Developer account to ship on iOS 8,19.

Security and data

Anything publishes no security certification, trust centre or data processing terms. Its privacy policy, from Create, Inc. and dated January 31, 2024, says the company is committed to keeping data secure and uses content to improve its services and conduct research; it does not say whether prompts or code train AI models 25. Builds use models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google and Moonshot 3,5. No security scan of generated apps is published: backend functions are public by default until you ask the agent to require sign-in, and API keys go in Saved Secrets rather than chat 13,14. App Store submission asks for your Apple ID credentials inside Anything 9. Team members see every project in a workspace, and removing a member from the web builder takes an email to support 21.

  • Security checks on your app. No security scan of generated apps is published; an App Store review check scans for issues Apple would reject, and backend functions stay public until you ask the agent to require sign-in 8,13
  • Data residency. Not published
  • Training on your data. Not addressed; the privacy policy says content is used to improve the services and conduct research 25
  • AI models. Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Moonshot and open-source models 3,5

What customers say

Independent reviews are thin. Anything's G2 page shows 4.0 from a single review 31. On Trustpilot, the anything.com page has a TrustScore of 2.4 from 18 reviews, 72% of them one star, with complaints about refunds, cancellations, credits used up in error loops and slow support, alongside praise for speed and code export 29. The older create.xyz page also scores 2.4, from 15 reviews 30. Anything names no customers with published stories; its CEO has pointed to App Store apps built with it, such as a habit tracker and a CPR training course 27. Press coverage has focused on its funding and on Apple's removal of its iPhone app 26,27,28.

  • Max fixed an intermittent Stripe checkout failure in one user's app, reaching a 100% success rate 7
