FlutterFlow is a visual, drag-and-drop app builder built directly on Google's Flutter framework, producing genuinely native iOS, Android and web apps from one project. It charges per user seat rather than per app, with unlimited projects included on every paid plan, but a database (Firebase or Supabase) is a separate cost on top of the subscription. It's a common pick for teams that specifically want Flutter-based native performance rather than a web-first app with a mobile wrapper.

Read the full Windsurf review

Windsurf (by Codeium) is a direct Cursor competitor that leans hard into agentic, long-running tasks. Its Cascade agent can plan and execute across many files with minimal hand-holding. Pricing is aggressive and there is a genuinely useful free tier. If Cursor feels too hands-on, Windsurf is worth trying.
