Question

Is an AI-assisted app with a proper engineering process eligible for the marketplace?


Hi! I'm a solo founder planning a paid B2B app for the marketplace. The guidelines say new apps "built primarily using no-code platforms or AI-generated 'vibe code'" are not eligible.

I'm not an engineer. The code would be written with an AI coding assistant (Claude Code), but with:
- documented architecture, automated tests and version control;
- OAuth 2.1 with minimal scopes;
- an external security review;
- a full code review by an independent senior developer before submission.

Would an app built this way be eligible? If there are extra requirements, such as a named developer responsible for maintenance, I'd like to know them before I start building. Thanks!
