Greta Reviews

I’ve purchased Greta at Level 3 and while its strengths in rapid prototyping are clear, there are consistent limitations that block progress from polished mockups to functional working apps.
👍 What Works
- Swift Drafting: Greta accelerates early-stage exploration and UI iteration beautifully.
- Sleek Design: Generated apps look sharp and professional out of the gate.

👎 What Doesn’t
- Credit Loss from Build Errors: Simple edits often cost double or triple due to system glitches and preview failures—users absorb the impact of backend instability.
- Limited Editing Freedom: Direct changes to colors, copy, or layout require AI prompts, with no streamlined visual editor in place.
- Overwrites and Regression Bugs: Requested tweaks frequently rewrite entire pages, breaking previously functioning code and design without justification. This is SUPER frustrating.
- Supabase Struggles: The integration does not work. Authentication, session handling, and data persistence are unreliable at best—leaving backend workflows dysfunctional.
- Lack of Element Targeting: Detailed prompts are often ignored, and the absence of selector clarity means precise control remains elusive.
- Restricted growth: The 50-file limit is a major blocker. With both projects I tried, based on detailed initial design prompts, I hit over 45 files quickly of the 50 limit.
- Dismissive AI Behavior: Prompts for functional upgrades are often met with vague “coming soon” responses, stalling development flow.
- Human Touch Still Required: Despite AI-led ambitions, manual intervention is frequently essential to course-correct, clarify intent, or recover broken features.
- Lack of support: The AI Support chat bot is good at understanding and replying to the support prompts entered (note this is NOT the core Greta app - it's the help button on the side); however it's essentially useless as there is no resolution to the issues and no human interaction or follow-up, even when I have manually followed up on multiple occasions.

💡 Suggestions
- Embed a native visual editor to support intuitive styling and copy adjustments.
- Offer better element identification tools for accurate reference and targeting.
- Fix credit accounting to exclude charges for errors or backend preview failures.
- Establish tiered credit costs to reflect actual edit complexity.
- Lift asset upload limits, and expand support for custom branding and media.
- Get the support sorted.

📌 Final Thoughts Greta has great potential for turning raw ideas into apps —but bridging the gap between concept and deployable product is still a huge challenge. There is no way I could with confidence deploy an app developed in Greta. Until credit fairness, editor control, and system reliability improve, users should treat Greta as a prototype generator, not a full development platform.

I tried to make an equipment booking system. My prompts were relatively solid, sometimes the results were decent, other times Greta ignored my prompts and delivered something semi broken. I often used up credits on edits where Greta simply didn't implement the required changes. The key to this is starting with a really solid prompt, rather than trying to edit it continually. Exhausting the credits can be frustrating, I have already used 300 without anything that's workable yet. Probably 70 of those credits were requests for edits that were never fulfilled by Greta. This is very promising software, but the credits system has to be improved. Perhaps if edits aren't made properly a roll back function can replenish them. There has to be a way for this to work that's fair for Greta and the user. I'm on the fence about refunding, but I'm going to give it another chance for a week to see if I can get a workable app out of it. The developer seems like a very committed guy so that is always a plus.

For New User you need 10000 credits for end 1 Project test with your self

Does so much right - more so than it's peers. But one thing that bothers me: it screws up and keeps revising (which racks up credits) automatically. However, the one big flaw: until it can operate beyond 50 files and not go haywire, it's going to be a toy I use to make little lead magnet tools for websites or just to pass time.

I’ve tried so many similar programs and they are all pretty good but this one truly pumps out the goods. 👍👍
