Ideatr

Ideatr helps builders safely iterate on AI-generated apps without losing work.

Most AI app builders optimize for the first generation. Ideatr is built for everything that comes after.

Why Ideatr Exists

AI makes it easy to generate an app once. It’s much harder to keep working on it.

In most tools:

Regenerating overwrites files

Structure changes unpredictably

One bad prompt can wipe progress

Projects feel disposable

As a result, many AI-generated apps never turn into real products.

Ideatr exists to fix that.

What Ideatr Is

Ideatr is a workspace for building real, iteratable apps with AI.

Instead of treating generation as a one-time event, Ideatr treats app creation as a continuous process where:

progress is visible

changes are reversible

experimentation is safe

work doesn’t get trapped

The goal is simple: make AI-generated apps feel like real software projects, not fragile experiments.

Core Features 📁 File Visibility

See exactly what Ideatr generates.

Clear file and folder structure

Inspect contents before moving forward

No black box output

This makes generated apps understandable and trustworthy.

⏪ Generation Checkpoints

Every generation creates a checkpoint.

Each checkpoint has a number, name, and timestamp

Revert to any previous state with one click

Experiment freely without fear of breaking everything

Iteration becomes cheap instead of risky.

🔁 Safe Iteration

Ideatr is designed to reduce the “regen wiped my app” problem.

Changes feel controlled

Progress feels durable

You can move forward knowing you can always go back

📦 Clean Export

Your work is never trapped.

Export the full project cleanly

Open it in your editor

Continue building without friction

Ideatr is a starting point, not a dead end.

How to Use Ideatr (Best Practices)

Treat generation as iteration, not a single step

Use checkpoints aggressively — experiment often

Inspect files to understand what’s being created

Export early if you want to continue building elsewhere

Ideatr works best when you use it as a thinking and iteration tool, not just a generator.

Who Ideatr Is For

Indie hackers

Solo founders

Builders experimenting with AI-generated apps

Anyone frustrated by fragile AI tooling

If you’ve ever thought “this was cool, but now I’m scared to touch it”, Ideatr is for you.

Progress So Far

Ideatr is early, but focused on fundamentals.

What’s live:

Project persistence

File tree and file viewing

Generation checkpoints and reverts

Clean export

What’s coming next:

Collaboration

More controlled regeneration

Backend-aware workflows

Making iteration even safer and more predictable

The Long-Term Goal

The goal isn’t to generate the most code in the fewest seconds.

The goal is to help builders:

start faster

iterate safely

and actually ship something real

Ideatr is built for the long game.
