This is a nice idea. We build a lot of mobile apps, and we use a combination of the Django admin, and django-tastypie. This gets a JSON API up and running with authentication in very short order, but a product in this space would be very welcome, especially as it allows the data model to be built with a GUI. Our programmers spend a lot of time on model development and being able to delegate that to less technical staff would be a big benefit. White-label would obviously be a very strong requirement.

This is what we used to do with Rails. But the backends were never a priority and ended up being hackish and hard to use for editors, so in the end the devs were editing the content... urg. Hosting and maintaining those backends hasn't been fun either, in our opinion mobile devs are better off using our service. They get a better solution faster.

  "But the backends were never a priority and ended up being hackish and hard to use for editors" This is our main problem, too. I don't have any data from our clients, but I have a feeling that being able to provide a clean, user-friendly, branded back-end would increase participation in content creation quite considerably.
