How Auto works
Auto is camera-first: the photo comes before the app. Everything after it is a conversation.
-
Describe it
Say what you want in one sentence. Auto writes a small app — a Frame — and builds it around the photo you just took.
-
Change it
Tell it what to fix and it rebuilds in place: a different result page, another field, a screen you forgot you needed.
-
Keep it
It stays in your library, tied to your photos. Publish it and other people can install your Frame and make it theirs.
Creator stories
Real Frames people published, and the guides that walk through building your own — starting from the prompt each one begins with.
- Hairstyle Studio
- Plant ID
Their first prompt
Create a plant ID app that identifies a plant from a photo, then shows a short results page — common name, scientific name, distinguishing traits, toxicity, pet safety, and native range. Keep it concise.
How I Built My Own Plant Identifier App (And You Can Too) - Fit Check
The prompt it starts from
Build a fit check app. Analyze the outfit photo like a professional stylist. Identify each garment, describe fit and silhouette, pull the color palette, and note formality and style. Show a portrait photo next to a result card, a one-line summary, a few things that work, and suggestions I can preview.
Build an Outfit Rating App So You Don't Have to Ask
Start with a template
Prompts lifted straight out of the guides. Copy one, paste it into Auto, then keep talking until it's yours.
-
Calorie & Macro Tracker
Build a meal tracking app. Analyze food photos and estimate calories, protein, fat, and carbs, plus fiber, sugar, and sodium. Show today's meals with daily progress, a history view I can swipe through by day, trends over 7 and 30 days, and a settings screen where I set my own targets.
-
Personal Color Analysis
Build a Frame that takes a front-camera selfie, reads my skin tone and hair color, and recommends 4 clothing colors that flatter me. Show them as a clean swatch grid with a short reason under each, then 2–3 wearable outfit suggestions. Keep the tone utilitarian — a design tool, not a beauty counter.
-
Portrait Drawing Reference Generator
Build a portrait drawing practice app. Each day, generate a fresh AI face with strong light and shadow — ideal for studying form. Add a button to generate a new one on demand.
-
Wardrobe Cataloging & Outfit Suggestions
Catalog my clothes with photos, store each item's price, and track how many times I wear it. Show me cost per wear per item, sorted worst to best.
-
Collectibles Catalog
Make a beautiful trading card catalog. I'll send photos of my cards and you display them on a shelf. Fetch data and card images from the internet for each one.
-
Brand & Stock Identifier
Identify the brand of an object in a photo, find its public company, and show its current stock performance and investment links.
