Frequently asked questions
Everything visitors usually ask about the Idea → Blueprint ↔ Revise → Contract flow.
Do I need to sign up to try App Robot?
No. Your first idea is free and works without an account — describe your idea on the home page and App Robot starts building your blueprint immediately as a guest. If you want to continue after that first idea, you can sign up and keep everything you've already made.
How many times can I revise my blueprint?
Unlimited. Once a blueprint exists you can refine it as many times as you like — just describe the change in plain language ("make it free with ads instead of a subscription") and App Robot produces a new version while keeping the full version history so you can revisit any earlier draft.
What's in every blueprint?
Every blueprint contains the same nine sections: concept (title, pitch, problem, solution), target users, exactly one focused main feature with a step-by-step workflow, how the main feature wraps into the standard 3-tab architecture, screen-by-screen breakdowns, the data model, integrations, explicit exclusions (what the app will NOT do), and a nonbinding cost and timeline estimate.
What is the standard 3-tab architecture?
Every App Robot app is built on the same proven mobile foundation: a Dashboard tab (your collection, history, and results), a Main Feature tab (the one key action that delivers the app's core value), and a Profile tab (account, settings, and preferences). Because every app shares this shell, blueprints stay focused, estimates stay realistic, and builds are repeatable.
Are the cost and timeline estimates binding?
No. Estimates are generated by AI, are informational only, and are never binding. They give you a realistic range based on the blueprint's scope. When you request a contract, a human reviews your blueprint and prepares an actual proposal and agreement before anything is committed.
What happens to my guest idea when I sign up?
It's saved. When you sign up from the workspace, App Robot first tries to upgrade your existing guest session to a full account — the same identity, with all of your ideas and blueprints intact. If you sign in with a different account instead, App Robot attempts to claim your guest work and attach it to that account automatically.
How do contract requests work?
When you're happy with your blueprint, click "Request Contract" in the workspace, confirm your name and email, and acknowledge that the estimate is nonbinding. App Robot's team then reviews the blueprint and responds with a proposal and agreement. There's no obligation until you sign.
What do the timeline and cost ranges look like?
Because every app shares the standard architecture and built-in services, most focused single-feature apps land in the range of a few weeks and a few thousand dollars. Each blueprint shows its own estimate range — for example, the receipt-scanning example on the Examples page estimates $9,000–$16,000 over 3–5 weeks. Remember these are nonbinding AI estimates.
What happens to my data? Is it private?
Your idea text and blueprints are stored to provide the service, are visible only to you (and to App Robot staff when you request a contract), and are never sold. Guests work under an anonymous identity that becomes theirs when they sign up. For access, correction, or deletion requests, contact support@app-robot.com. See the Privacy Policy for details.
