Isn't Kotlin based on JVM and Swift is natively compiled? That's a pretty significant difference and I'm not aware of any "to native" compiler for Kotlin like the NativeAOT approach exists for .NET...

There are in fact two "to native" compilers for Kotlin, the one for Kotlin only is called Kotlin Native but you can also use graalvm native-image to compile any JVM language to native.
