Isaac Skill

Builder Studio: https://builderstudio.dev

Isaac is a BuilderStudio-compatible skill for building Apple-platform apps that are compatible by default with Apple App Store Review Guidelines. It helps teams reduce avoidable review friction by designing privacy, metadata, payments, reviewer access, user-generated content moderation, legal readiness, and submission notes into the app before review.

Isaac is independent guidance and does not replace Apple's official App Store Review Guidelines, App Store Connect, legal review, or direct communication with App Review.
