What it is
Same.new builds and deploys web apps from a prompt, a pasted website URL or a screenshot, in a browser-based agent environment. Designers and makers who like to start from a reference site, screenshot or mockup and iterate in chat.

Same.new at a glance
Stack
Next.js (React, TypeScript) by default, with Supabase or Neon for data and Clerk for authentication through its integrations
Publishing and hosting
Click Deploy in Same. Same deploys the project to Netlify and gives you a main domain that always shows the latest deployed version, plus a preview domain for each deployment. Unclaimed deployments expire after 14 days of inactivity, so claim the deployment (Deployed, Claim Deployment) to move the site into your own Netlify account.
Authentication
Clerk (sign-up, login, sessions, roles) or Supabase Auth through the integrations
Payments
No built-in payments; the agent integrates a provider such as Stripe when you ask for it
Builder badge
No builder badge to remove.
Example: from Same.new project to approved app
Say you rebuilt the website of your own tattoo studio with Same: you pasted the old site's URL, kept your artwork and texts, and asked the agent for a booking flow, an artist gallery and a client area with aftercare instructions. Clerk handles client accounts with Apple and Google, Supabase stores appointments, and a Stripe deposit pays for the real-world session, so no In-App Purchase is needed. You deploy, claim the site on Netlify, connect book.yourstudio.com and wrap it with WebViewGold. A local push reminds clients of aftercare steps in the days after a session, and the share sheet lets them send a design to a friend. Both stores approve the app, and every redeploy from Same updates it.
Your first week after launch
- Redeploy from Same and check the main domain afterwards; it always serves the latest deployed version.
- Confirm that the production build still uses Clerk's live keys after every change to environment variables.
- Keep an eye on Netlify build minutes and bandwidth on a free plan; a blocked redeploy is easy to miss.
- Schedule aftercare reminders with sendlocalpushmsg:// when a session is booked, and cancel them with sendlocalpushmsg://push.send.cancel if it moves.
- Ask for a rating with rateapp:// after a client confirms their second booking.
Store-readiness prompt

Prompt to paste into Same
Prepare this Next.js app for publishing as a native iOS and Android app (it will run inside a native WebView wrapper that loads the deployed URL): 1. Add /privacy and /terms pages with placeholder text I can edit and link them from the footer and the account page. 2. Add a "Delete my account" action in the account settings that deletes the user's data and their Clerk (or Supabase) user after a confirmation step. 3. Replace any copied brand names, logos, images or text from a reference site with my own placeholders. 4. Make every page responsive from 320px to iPad widths, with no horizontal scrolling and tap targets of at least 44px. 5. Remove "Download our app" banners and external promotional links from the main navigation. 6. Show a friendly retry state when a request fails instead of an empty screen. 7. Set the page title to the app name (max 30 characters) and add a meta description.

Frequently asked questions
Can a Same.new app be published in the App Store and on Google Play?
Yes. Deploy it, claim the deployment on Netlify so it never expires, connect your own domain and enter that URL in WebViewGold. Then build and submit the iOS and Android apps; every later redeploy shows up in the apps without a store update.
Same builds web apps, not mobile apps. Is a PWA enough?
A PWA can be added to the home screen, but it is not listed in the App Store or on Google Play. WebViewGold turns the same deployed URL into native store apps and adds features a PWA cannot offer in the stores, such as native push notifications and the share sheet.
Can I clone my own website with Same and publish it as an app?
Yes. Cloning your own site, with your own brand, texts and images, is a quick way to start. The trouble starts with other people's material: copied designs, logos, product names or photos lead to rejections under Apple's Guideline 5.2.1 and Google Play's impersonation and intellectual property rules. Replace anything you do not own before you submit, and add real app features so the result is more than the old website.
Same has no custom domain setting. How do I give the app its own domain?
Claim the deployment first, so the Netlify site lives in your own account, then add your domain in Netlify's domain management and set the DNS records it shows. Put that domain into Config.swift and Config.java: it never expires, it is the domain your Universal Links and App Links use, and you can move hosting later by changing DNS instead of shipping new builds.
