With Updraft you can save iOS, Android and Windows Artifacts in the same place. Updraft can be integrated into any continuous integration process. You don't need an Apple ID or Google account to use Updraft.

CloudCLI's answer:

CloudCLI is one of the only cloud development environments built specifically for AI coding agents. Where Codespaces and Gitpod give you a cloud editor, CloudCLI gives your agents a persistent home that stays alive 24/7. What makes it particularly valuable for teams: shared MCP servers and environment configs mean every developer starts from the same baseline. A full REST API means sessions can be triggered from automation tools, not just opened manually. Background agents can run overnight and produce PRs for review in the morning. And the entire platform is open source (AGPL-3) so teams can self-host on their own infrastructure.

Updraft offers many features to simplify the app development and app distribution processes. Compared to many competitors, Updraft relies on a project hierarchy, which makes it possible to manage app versions from different OS platforms and development environments in one central location. App installation links can be downloaded independently by testers or distributed to larger groups and distribution groups. It is also possible to set permission groups and assign users to groups and app projects, which greatly simplifies user management, especially with SAML and OpenID. Updraft also offers a service for resigning .ipa files with the correct Apple certificates and Provisionig profiles and has an integration to the Play and App Store.

And best of all, the product has all its data in Switzerland.

CloudCLI's answer:

Compared to tools like GitHub Codespaces, CloudCLI is purpose-built for agentic development rather than traditional coding. Here's what sets it apart:

• AI-agent-first: While competitors give you a cloud IDE, CloudCLI gives your AI agents a persistent home in the cloud. Your agents keep working even when your laptop is closed.
• Open-source web UI and mobile app: No other CDE ships with both a browser-based UI and a native mobile app for managing sessions on the go. And it's all open source.
• Cross-device continuity: Start planning on your phone, continue in VS Code at your desk, or kick off from a Linear ticket. Your session context carries over seamlessly.
• Multi-agent support: Run Claude Code, Cursor CLI, OpenAI Codex, and Gemini CLI from one platform instead of managing separate setups.
• Affordable: Starting at €7/month for the managed service, or self-host for free with Docker.

App developers from companies

CloudCLI's answer:

CloudCLI is built for engineering teams that use AI coding agents as part of their daily workflow. This includes teams adopting agentic development practices with tools like Claude Code, Cursor CLI, or Codex who need shared environments where MCP servers, context files, and configurations stay consistent across every developer. It also serves engineering managers looking to integrate AI agents into existing workflows through API-driven automation with tools like Linear, Jira, and n8n. Solo developers and open-source contributors who want persistent remote access from any device are also a core audience, along with organizations that need to self-host for data sovereignty or regulatory compliance.

GetUpdraft.com's answer

Updraft is a product of the company appswithlove.com. Apps with love specializes in app and web development and is the most successful app agency in Switzerland. We have been developing Updraft since 2013, initially as an internal service/platform because there were no other services for building and distributing applications, later the tool became multi-client capable and opened to the masses. So we bring over 10 years of experience in app distribution, app signing, app release management and app development.

CloudCLI's answer:

CloudCLI started as an open-source project to solve a problem every developer using AI coding agents hits: your agent ties up your terminal and stops working when your laptop sleeps. We built a cloud-native environment where agents run persistently, paired with an open-source web UI so anyone could manage sessions from a browser or phone. As teams started adopting it, the focus shifted to shared environments, where team-wide MCP servers, configurations, and context files could be maintained in one place instead of duplicated across every developer's machine. The project grew to 9,000+ GitHub stars organically with no marketing. Today CloudCLI offers both a free self-hosted option and a managed cloud service starting at €7/month.

CloudCLI's answer:

CloudCLI is built with a modern JavaScript/TypeScript stack:

• Frontend: React with Vite for fast builds, Tailwind CSS for styling, and CodeMirror for the in-browser code editor with syntax highlighting
• Backend: Node.js powering the server and session management
• Infrastructure: Docker for containerized cloud sessions, with support for self-hosting
• Mobile: A dedicated mobile app for managing sessions on the go

The entire codebase is open source under AGPL-3 and available on GitHub.
