Rork's backend is in beta with serverless functions only — no built-in database, auth, or storage yet. CatDoes Cloud includes all of these on every plan, including Free.
Rork builds the front end. CatDoes builds the whole thing — UI, database, auth, storage, and edge functions. Every CatDoes app comes with CatDoes Cloud, a full backend that works out of the box. No Supabase setup, no Firebase config, no third-party services to stitch together.
Every CatDoes app comes with a full backend — database, auth, storage, and edge functions. No third-party setup needed. Available on all plans, including Free.

We're here to answer all your questions.
How is CatDoes different from Rork?
Both CatDoes and Rork build native mobile apps using AI and vibe coding. The key difference is what's included. CatDoes comes with a full backend — database, auth, storage, and edge functions — built in on every plan. CatDoes also deploys to Google Play and the web with one click. With Rork, backend and some deployment targets require external setup.
Does CatDoes include a backend?
Yes. Every CatDoes app includes CatDoes Cloud — a full backend with Postgres database, authentication, file storage, and edge functions. It works out of the box on all plans, including Free. No Supabase setup or Firebase configuration needed.
Can I convert my Rork project to CatDoes?
Yes. Enter your Rork project URL and CatDoes will use it as a reference to build a version with a full backend and deployment to all platforms.
Is coding experience required?
No. CatDoes is designed for people with zero coding experience. You describe what you want, and our AI agents handle requirements, design, and code. You can also iterate by chatting — just say what you want changed.
How does the pricing work?
CatDoes offers a free plan that lets you build one project and deploy as a web app. Pro ($25/mo) and Business ($50/mo) plans include more projects, mobile deployment to app stores, and additional credits for AI generation.
Does CatDoes offer a free plan?
