Founder-led. AI-native. Human-approved.
ONLYAPPS runs on a simple split. James decides what to build and whether it is good enough. A system of specialized AI agents does the research, planning, design, building, testing and support drafting, inside rules that stop anything risky without his approval.
The pipeline
Research
Find a problem people actually complain about, and see how others solve it.
Plan
Decide the one job the app does, and what it will not do.
Design
Draw each screen with plain words and large touch targets.
Build
Write the app with few permissions and only the data it needs.
Review
A different agent checks the work against a quality bar. Anything below it goes back.
Ship
Publishing an app needs James's explicit approval.
Listen
Read what users write, and fold what we learn into the next update.
The rules we keep
- Every output is reviewed by a different agent than the one that made it. Work below our quality bar goes back.
- Spending money, publishing an app and anything irreversible need James's explicit approval.
- Real builds, real screenshots.
- Support messages are read, and what we learn goes into the next update.
Why work this way
It lets a very small studio spend its time on the part that matters most to you: whether the app is good.
AI agents make mistakes. That is why a person decides what ships.
