# Siri AI finally works with your app. Here's how to be ready by spring. > Apple just opened Siri AI to every app. Customers can use it in spring, and the brands that start now will be the ones Siri works with on day one. - Source: https://verygood.ventures/blog/siri-ai-is-your-app-ready/ - Published: 2026-11-09 - Author: Kyle Crouse - Tags: AI, Business Value, Flutter --- For more than a decade, Siri has been the assistant everyone had and almost nobody relied on. It could set a timer or send a text, but ask it to do anything inside the apps you actually use and you hit a wall. On November 3, 2026, that wall finally came down. Apple opened Siri AI to every app, which means your customers will soon be able to ask Siri to reorder, check on a delivery, or book an appointment, and have it happen inside your app. Your competitors got the same news you did. Apps can't ship it until spring 2027, so the race is happening now, quietly, in development. The brands that start this month will be the ones Siri can work with on day one. ## What changed with the Siri AI developer preview Until now, Siri could only work with other companies' apps for a short list of tasks Apple defined, like sending a message or getting directions. With the [Siri AI developer preview](https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=gdk2umrf), any app can teach Siri its own actions. Apps do this through App Intents, the same framework behind Shortcuts and Spotlight. A customer asks in plain language, and Siri completes the task inside your app and shows the result with your branding. Here's what that looks like. David Castaño, one of our engineers, built this prototype on the Scooter's Coffee app. A customer asks Siri for the menu, narrows it down to lattes, and Siri pulls the answer straight from the Scooter's app without the customer ever opening it.

For thirty years, people found what they needed the same few ways: type a search, scroll the results, tap an icon, dig through a menu. Those entry points are eroding. In their place is something far more personal, [a conversation with an assistant](/genui/) that knows your context and what's on your screen, and simply does what you asked. When the front door is a conversation, discovery stops being about ranking on a page or winning a spot on the home screen. It becomes about whether the assistant understands what you offer and can act on it for the person asking. Siri opening up is the moment that shift lands in your customers' pockets. ## The timeline: build now, ship in spring | When | What happens | | --- | --- | | Jun. 8, 2026 | Apple unveils the new Siri at WWDC | | Sep. 14, 2026 | Siri AI reaches users in beta | | Nov. 3, 2026 | The developer preview opens to every app, and building starts | | Dec. 2026 | The iOS 27.3 update ships, but Siri features for apps aren't live yet | | Spring 2027 | App Store submissions open, and customers get access | During the preview, Siri AI integrations run only in development-signed builds and for internal TestFlight testers, not for external testers or App Store users. They need a device that supports Apple Intelligence, and [Apple says](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appintents/siri-ai-developer-preview) the App Intents API may still change. Development and testing can start today, and every month you wait comes out of a fixed window. ## What it means for your business This is a new front door. Customers can use your services without ever opening your app, and when they ask Siri, the brands that did the work get the order. Apps that didn't simply aren't an option. It also changes what your storefront is. The way you describe your app's actions decides whether Siri understands what customers are asking for. And because orders that start with Siri arrive with less tracking context, it pays to decide how you'll measure them before launch. Remember the early App Store: the first apps people learned to rely on became habits that were hard to break. Siri is about to have that moment. ## How VGV gets your app ready for Siri AI We take you from "should we care?" to an integration that's ready to submit the day the App Store opens. We start by finding the few customer tasks where Siri adds the most value, then design and build them on Apple's new frameworks, whether your app is native iOS or [Flutter](/flutter/), where the Siri integration is a thin native layer over your Dart code. We prove they work with automated testing on Apple's new evaluation tools, so you see the quality before your customers do. And we track Apple's terms as they land, so you're ready to ship when the window opens. There are three ways to start. The first is free: a 30-minute call where we look at your app and name the first Siri actions worth building. When you're ready to build, fixed-price packages start at $5,000 for small products and $15,000 for medium products, with a set scope and a clear finish line. Larger organizations with many apps or complex flows get a custom engagement scoped to fit. ## Ready to be first? Teams that start now will be ready the day submissions open. Teams that wait for spring will be starting while their competitors ship.

The Siri AI developer preview opened to every app developer with the iOS 27.3, iPadOS 27.3, macOS 27.3, and visionOS 27.3 betas. Any app can now give Siri its own actions and content through App Intents, so customers can ask Siri to do things inside that app in plain language. ### When can customers use Siri AI with third-party apps? Not yet. During the preview, Siri AI integrations run only in development builds and internal tests. Apple says the features reach customers in a few months, and App Store submissions for them open in spring 2027. ### Can a Flutter app work with Siri AI? Yes. A Flutter app on iOS is a native iOS app, so it can expose actions to Siri through Apple's App Intents framework with a thin native layer that talks to the app's Dart code and backend. ### Why should a business start on Siri AI now? The build window is fixed. Development and testing can start today, and submissions open in spring. Teams that build during the preview can ship on day one, while teams that wait for spring will be starting when competitors ship. ### How much does it cost to get an app ready for Siri AI with VGV? It starts with a free 30-minute call to name the first Siri actions worth building. Fixed-price packages start at $5,000 for small products and $15,000 for medium products. Larger organizations get a custom engagement. Book 30 minutes with VGV to start.
