Ahmed Sadek, who has 23+ years of IT experience, plans to disrupt app building for mobile & the Web, with his app builder, iRithm. Currently in private beta, it promises to empower ordinary people to build apps using a visual, drag & drop system assisted by a programming bot called Julia. The bot, driven by artificial intelligence & machine learning, is programmed to interpret directions given in English & transform them into an application. Julia will, according to iRithm, be capable of transforming wireframe prototypes into apps as well.
Julia was born out of the frustration Ahmed experienced during developing apps for various businesses – he saw cost escalation, project delays & a rift between developers & clients. Those behind the codeless app builder iRithm, which is essentially a low-code/no-code platform, plan to launch it late 2021, with early users gaining access by July 2021. The 30+ technical team plans to raise funds on the popular crowdfunding platform Indiegogo.
Some of iRithm features:
- Lego-like building interface.
- Enterprise-grade Output.
- Fully customizable.
- AI assisted.
- Bug-free, pre-tested code.
- Machine learning driven.
- Simple subscription-based pricing.
- Low-code exits.
- Vendor-neutral.
- No hidden costs.
- Industry-agnostic.
- Multi-experience development.
The platform has been fabricated from 3 basic building blocks which include:
1. The iRExt paradigm which allows users to create software using natural language.
2. iRithm, which empowers users to build a no-code app via a drag & drop system.
3. Julia: a developer-bot to guide people in their creation, so that they can develop robust applications.
Interested parties can sign up on iRithm’s Website to gain early access to the platform, which, the developers say, is capable of producing zero-error code since the system uses tried & tested coding blocks from millions of different coding repositories to formulate a coherently coded application. iRithm’s foundation is modern in that it relies on the latest development languages to develop its product, namely Vue (JavaScript for the Web) & Flutter (for mobile).
