Descriptions:

Riley Brown and collaborator Muhammad walk through a complete workflow for building and monetizing an iOS app using Vibe Code (vibecode.dev) — a no-code mobile app builder powered by Claude Code under the hood. The chosen project is a construction estimator app modeled after a real product reportedly generating $4.8 million in annual revenue. Using Claude Opus as the base model, they generate the initial app UI and then layer in Gemini for AI-powered cost estimates and camera input, all without writing a single line of code.

The second half of the video focuses on wiring up a working paywall through RevenueCat, covering subscription product creation, Apple sandbox purchase testing, and live revenue verification inside the RevenueCat dashboard. The team also demos RevenueCat’s built-in paywall editor to swap in a more polished subscription screen template.

By the end of the session, a functional $9.99/month subscription is confirmed working and the app is queued for App Store submission. This is a practical end-to-end reference for indie developers and entrepreneurs who want to understand the full pipeline from AI-generated UI to live in-app payments — covering Vibe Code, Claude Opus, Gemini, and RevenueCat in one sitting.
