FluxNative vs Draftbit

Key differences

• Paying for AI

  Draftbit's paid plans include no AI credits; agents use your own Claude or ChatGPT subscription, an API key, or bought credits. FluxNative plans include monthly credits.

• Designs

  Draftbit's agents read images and files you attach; its docs list Figma integration as coming soon. FluxNative's assistant builds from the screenshots you attach; it has no Figma import yet.

• Coding agents

  Draftbit runs Claude Code and Codex in its cloud sandbox. On paid plans, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other clients on your machine edit FluxNative projects over remote MCP.

• Publishing

  Both sign apps and upload to TestFlight and Google Play; the first Android upload is manual. FluxNative also pushes the listing and keeps a store checklist.

Full details

What it builds

FluxNative: A React Native project in TypeScript: real native source code you own.

Draftbit: React Native apps in TypeScript; also Vite web apps, Astro sites and Hono APIs.

Getting the app onto phones

FluxNative: Signed Android APK and App Bundle and iOS IPA, built in the cloud. iOS builds need no Mac.

Draftbit: Builds and signs iOS and Android apps under your developer accounts, from the Standard plan.

Code ownership

FluxNative: Full source in the Code tab, exportable as a .zip any time.

Draftbit: ZIP export from Standard; one-way GitHub export on Pro; imports existing projects.

What the AI starts from

FluxNative: Chat, screenshots and images, a working template, or an existing Expo Router app uploaded as a .zip (paid plans).

Draftbit: Chat with Claude Code or Codex, with images and files; a visual editor and a code editor.

Preview and testing

FluxNative: Live preview in a device frame and 30-day share links; on paid plans, APK install by QR code and TestFlight.

Draftbit: Browser preview in device frames; the Draftbit Preview app by QR code; in-browser simulators on Pro.

App Store and Google Play

FluxNative: Uploads to TestFlight and Google Play, sends the listing and Play's Data safety form, submits for App Review and releases to Play production after you confirm. You create the app record once in each store console, and a new Play app's first upload is done by hand in Play Console.

Draftbit: One-click upload to TestFlight and Google Play from Standard. First Android upload by hand; listing and review in the consoles.

Backend and data

FluxNative: Supabase, Firebase, Appwrite, Cloudflare or your own API; the assistant creates tables, rules and functions.

Draftbit: Built-in Supabase (beta) or your own Supabase, Firebase, Xano or REST and GraphQL APIs.

Coding agents and editors

FluxNative: Remote MCP on paid plans: one connection lets Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code and others create and edit your apps.

Draftbit: Claude Code and Codex run inside Draftbit's sandbox, which opens in Cursor or VS Code from Standard. Its docs describe no MCP server for outside agents.

Pricing

FluxNative: Free plan with welcome credits to build and preview in the browser; native builds, store upload and remote MCP on paid plans.

Draftbit: Free plan without code export or store publishing. Standard from $15/month; AI runs on your own subscription or bought credits.
