Founded in March 2025 by former CapCut and Moonshot AI product leader Leon Ming, YouWare offers an AI creation environment that turns spoken or written descriptions and photos into working software. The platform bundles its own in-house Model Context Protocol, backend tooling, and model-switching to deliver end-to-end app development without relying on third-party frameworks. In just eight months, YouWare has attracted more than 500,000 monthly active users who have produced over one million projects, largely through word-of-mouth. The company recently extended its web product to iOS and Android, bringing features like voice prompting, photo prototyping, and mobile-native design to smartphones. User-centric additions such as Boost and Credit Care aim to keep creation playful while protecting users from wasted credits. Headquartered in Shenzhen with teams in the United States and Japan, the company is currently valued at $200 million—up from $80 million in March—and has secured $50 million in pre-seed funding from IDG Capital and 5Y Capital.
