Phoenix.vu
iBoson Innovations Private Limited
Phoenix.vu is an AI coding agent built natively for Xcode — not a generic tool adapted to fit. Describe a change in plain English, and Phoenix.vu reads your actual project structure, writes the Swift code, runs the real Xcode build, and iterates through compiler errors until it compiles clean. It's especially strong at build-error and failing-test fixes, bounded refactors across multiple files, and generating tests for existing code. Every change comes back as a reviewable diff inside Xcode — nothing applies without approval, and there's no copy-pasting between a chat window and your editor. It remembers project context across sessions, so you're not re-explaining your codebase each time. Privacy-first: source code and project history stay local on your Mac; only the minimal context a task needs is sent for inference, and nothing is retained afterward. Pricing is pay-as-you-go credits from $10, no subscription required.Starting Price: $10 -
