Let's find the right path for your goals, timeline, and budget. ✓ Required fields filled 🛠️ Scratch vs. App Builder — What's the difference? Building from scratch means custom-coded software giving you full control, unlimited scalability, and complete ownership — ideal for complex, unique, or high-traffic applications. App builders like Replit use AI-assisted or no-code/low-code platforms to launch faster at lower initial cost — ideal for MVPs, prototypes, internal tools, or straightforward consumer apps. OMI can guide you to the right fit. How do you envision your app being built? ** Build from scratch - custom-coded, fully bespoke application Use an app builder / no-code platform (e.g., Replit, Bubble, Adalo, AppGyver) Hybrid - app builder for MVP, then migrate to custom code Not sure - I need OMI's recommendation Please select an option. If building from scratch, what drives that preference? Need full ownership of the codebase Require proprietary or highly sensitive data handling Need complex custom logic or algorithms Plan to scale to millions of users Require deep third-party API / system integrations Have existing engineering team to maintain it Competitive advantage through unique technology Long-term product that needs to evolve significantly If using an app builder, which platforms are you familiar with or interested in? Replit (AI-powered coding & deployment) Bubble (no-code web app builder) Adalo (mobile-focused no-code) FlutterFlow (Flutter-based no-code) AppGyver / SAP Build Apps Glide (spreadsheet-based apps) Thunkable (drag-and-drop mobile) Webflow (for web app front-end) Softr (Airtable-powered apps) Buildfire (native iOS & Android no-code) Not sure - open to OMI's recommendation Are you specifically interested in Replit as your build platform? Yes - I want to use Replit specifically Yes - I've heard of it but want to learn more Maybe - I'm open to it if it's the right fit No - I prefer a different approach I'm not familiar with Replit If using Replit: describe what you've already built or explored there (if anything) Are you starting with a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) or building the full product right away? ** MVP first - launch lean, then iterate based on feedback Full product - we know exactly what we want Not sure - need guidance on scoping Please select an option. Do you already have a prototype, wireframe, or demo? Yes - fully working prototype/demo Yes - wireframes or mockups (Figma, etc.) Yes - basic Replit / no-code prototype Yes - rough sketches or paper prototype only No - starting from scratch If you have a prototype or wireframe, share the link or describe it 📱 Section 4 of 11 Platform & Technology Which platforms do you need to reach, and what technical requirements does your app have? ✓ Required fields filled Which platforms do you need to support?
