Hey HN! I'm the developer behind Morpheo. You describe any app you need in any language, and it generates a complete web application that installs on your phone or computer like native software.

The problem I keep running into is that most people don't realize how powerful AI has become for creating real applications. While everyone knows AI for chat, very few have experienced using it to instantly build and install actual software. Even "no-code" tools still require technical thinking. I keep seeing people of all ages and background with great app ideas but feeling locked out by complexity. So I designed Morpheo to be genuinely accessible across all ages and technical levels, avoiding jargon and developer concepts entirely. I originally built this as a demo to show people AI's potential beyond chatbots. Despite all the "no code required" promises out there, I keep finding that existing tools still demanded technical thinking that excluded most people. I became obsessed with a simple question: what if someone could just describe their idea in any language and instantly get a working app they can install, share, and build upon? I realized that in our AI-driven era, app creation could become a new form of content creation, a way to build communities around functional software rather than just posts and videos.

I mainly use Gemini 2.0 Flash on Morpheo and it takes about 5-12 seconds for the most basic apps with an additional 1-2 seconds for security validation. The architecture is currently entirely based on Gemini but I'm planning on integrating more models and letting users use their own. What sets Morpheo apart are the core tools given to the AI: Morpheo Storage (IndexedDB-powered persistence superior to localStorage), Morpheo Realtime (Firebase-based real-time collaboration), Morpheo Device (unified access to GPS, sensors, camera, microphone), Morpheo Canvas (computer vision and image processing), and Morpheo Router (client-side navigation). Instead of generating code you copy-paste, it creates Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) that work offline and auto-update. The entire flow is: create → install → share → auto-update.

I've used it to create all the examples you can find at morpheoai.com/generate. Three that really showcase the range: the Interactive Solar System - a 3D educational tool with realistic orbits that teachers are actually installing in their classrooms for hands-on learning; the Digital Restaurant Menu - showing how small businesses can create professional customer experiences that update instantly without expensive platforms; and the Multiplayer Trivia Game - demonstrating real-time collaboration where one person hosts while others join from their phones, opening up possibilities for interactive events, team building, and social gaming. Business model: Freemium with usage-based credits for creation, plus premium features for teams and advanced customization. The platform is live at morpheoai.com - you can try it for free or feel free contact me for more credits to test, I am a cool guy! I'd love to hear what you think, especially about what types of apps you'd want to create, and any feedback on making AI app creation more accessible to everyone.
