Vibe Coding Projects Landscape

The “vibe-coding” space already has multiple well-funded players. Each is pushing AI-assisted building in a different direction: some focus on developer productivity inside IDEs, others on fast app generation for non-technical users.

Despite the crowding, there is still a structural gap: most tools either stop at code or sacrifice depth for simplicity.

Natively is built around closing that gap - full product generation, with strong control over logic, UX, and extensibility.

Why Natively Is Different

Most platforms in this category fall into one of two buckets:

  • Developer-first tools: Cursor, Claude Code, Replit.

    They speed up writing and editing code, but users still need to design systems, connect services, and manage complexity.

  • Simplicity-first tools: Lovable, v0.

    They lower the barrier to entry, but often at the cost of depth, customization, and production-grade control.

Natively is built around a different target:

  • Start from intent, not code.

  • Output complete products, not fragments.

  • Keep enough structure so products don’t collapse when they grow.

This puts Natively in a position that is not directly owned by any single competitor: product-first creation that is usable by non-technical users, but still strong enough for serious builders.
