Direct Quote

"I think there's so much potential for Apple to say, those App Intents, you can use them in ChatGPT, you can use them in Claude, you can use them in Perplexity, as long as those developers support our native MCP bridge."

Market Gap

Limited app integrations hinder user experience on iOS.

The current landscape of iOS apps lacks robust integration with large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and Claude. Developers face challenges in implementing these integrations due to the absence of a standardized framework that manages permissions and app intents seamlessly. Users experience a fragmented ecosystem, limiting the functionality of applications and preventing them from leveraging the full capabilities of AI. Without effective integration, users miss out on enhanced features that could streamline their tasks, leading to frustration and inefficiency.

Summary

The idea is to develop a framework for integrating iOS apps with large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT and Claude through Apple's MCP (Multi-Channel Partner) system. This would allow developers to connect their apps with these AI models, utilizing app intents for functionalities across different applications. For example, users could use a music app within a chatbot interface, allowing for a more fluid user experience. This system would empower developers while providing users with a richer, more coherent app ecosystem. The MCP framework would manage permissions and authorizations, ensuring a secure and user-friendly integration process that enhances the overall functionality of iOS applications.

How should I validate this platform idea before building it?

2:34 PM

Great question! For a platform idea like this, I'd recommend starting with these validation steps:

  1. Customer interviews: Talk to Technical to understand their pain points
  2. MVP approach: Build a simple landing page to test demand
  3. Competitor analysis: Research existing solutions and identify gaps

Would you like me to help you create a specific validation plan for your high difficulty idea?

2:35 PM

Yes, and what about the technical implementation? Should I build this myself or hire a team?

2:36 PM

Based on your idea's complexity and 6-12 months, here's my recommendation:

Technical Strategy:

  • Start with no-code tools for rapid prototyping
  • Consider your technical background and available > $10,000
  • Plan for scalability from day one

I can help you create a detailed technical roadmap and resource allocation plan...
