Low-code business apps or native consumer apps?
Flowfactory, in Stockholm, sells its own platform, Flowfactory Springboard, for business systems where AI agents work inside defined workflows on top of ERP, CRM and document archives.[9][11]
Newly builds native iOS and Android apps for the App Store and Google Play from a chat, with a standard React Native codebase you can export. It suits customer-facing apps, startup products and apps for small businesses more than internal enterprise workflows.[1][7]
What does it cost?
Newly starts at $25/month with credits for agent work. Cloud simulators and native builds do not use credits. Apple charges $99 a year for its developer program and Google a one-time $25 for a Play Console account, whichever way you build.[2][3]
A licence adapted to the business, with no published licence price. A half-day workshop is listed at a fixed 8 000 kr excluding VAT.[11]
Can you use both?
Yes. Build and test the first version in Newly, then connect the project to GitHub. A working app gives a developer or agency a much clearer scope than a written brief, and you keep the code either way.[7]
Which should you choose?
Consider Newly if…
- You want to build the app yourself, without code, and see it on a simulator in your first session.
- You want a native iOS and Android app for the App Store and Google Play.
- You want a monthly subscription from $25/month instead of a project quote, and to own the code.
Consider Flowfactory if…
- You want AI-driven internal workflows on top of your existing ERP or CRM.
- You are a manufacturer or public-sector body that needs a licensed business-process platform.
- Data residency in the EU and ISO 27001 certification are hard requirements.
Selection guidance is our interpretation of the documented workflows. Try the same small feature in each product and check the generated code, device behavior and publishing steps.
