About Us: a0.dev is an AI platform that turns app ideas into real, revenue-generating mobile apps.

We were one of the first AI mobile app builders in the market and have helped over 300k people bring their ideas to life. We're a small, well-funded, in-person team in San Francisco backed by Y Combinator and other top investors.
