Illustrative example: an invoice app for independent contractors. Your kit is tailored to the app you choose; this is not its generated content.

Feature spec

Goal: Send a clear invoice after finishing a job.

  • Add a client, line items, a due date, and payment instructions.
  • Preview the total before exporting a PDF.
  • Keep an editable draft if export fails.

Screen plan

Invoice editor: Client at the top, editable line items in the middle, total and preview action at the bottom.

States: Empty draft, validation errors beside each field, exporting, and a retry action that preserves the draft.

Differentiate and validate

Hypothesis: Contractors need faster repeat invoices more than more templates.

First experiment: Test duplicating a previous job with five contractors. Watch where they hesitate before expanding the feature set.

The full kit adds a phased build plan, evidence notes, tool prompts, and implementation guidance. It is a plan for your coding agent, not a finished app.

Usage: Mechanics are fair game; never reuse the original name, branding, assets, or verbatim copy.

App Store description

The Usual is a journal for the restaurants you love — and the ones you don't. Log where you went, what you ordered, and how it was, so the next time someone asks "what's good there?" you actually know. LOG A VISIT IN SECONDS Pick a restaurant, add what you ordered, and tap a star rating for each dish. Want more? Add the date, notes, prices, who ordered what, and even a restroom rating. SCAN A RECEIPT Point your camera at a receipt and The Usual reads the restaurant, the dishes, and their prices for you. It captures on its own as soon as the receipt is steady — no shutter button — and the whole thing runs on your device with Apple Intelligence. SEE IT ON A MAP Every restaurant you've logged appears on the map, marked by cuisine. Tap one to see your last visit and its rating, then open it for everything you've ordered there and directions in Apple Maps. FIND IT AGAIN Search by restaurant, by a dish you remember, or by rating — type "4.5 stars" to see only your best spots. The Home screen keeps your recent visits close and reminds you of highly rated places you haven't been back to in a while. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Everything you log is stored on your device and synced across your iPhone and iPad through your own private iCloud account. The developer never sees any of it. Receipt scanning requires a device that supports Apple Intelligence. Everything else works on any iPhone or iPad running iOS 26.2 or later.

Opportunities

AI-GENERATED OPPORTUNITY HYPOTHESES

These are generated suggestions, not verified review quotations. Check current App Store reviews and speak with users before treating a possible gap as a requirement.

Build scope

Plan a focused first version with your coding agent. These are planning assumptions, not a delivery guarantee.

Define the first version

Choose one audience and one core workflow. Use the kit to agree on its screens, data, and acceptance criteria before building.

Set boundaries

Decide which secondary features, integrations, and platform support can wait. Your version does not need to reproduce everything in the original.

Check the hard parts

Validate external services, specialist technology, data access, and ongoing costs for your chosen scope.

A reliable timeline needs an agreed scope and a technical check. Ask your agent to estimate the phases in BUILD_PLAN.md after that review.
