Bolt.new

Bolt.new, from the StackBlitz team, turns a plain-language prompt into a working full-stack web app — entirely in the browser. There is nothing to install: it writes the code, runs a real development server using WebContainers technology, and lets you edit, preview and deploy from the same tab.

Key facts: Bolt.new supports modern frameworks including React, Next.js, Astro, Vue and Svelte, and connects to services such as Supabase for databases and auth, GitHub for version control and Figma for design input. The generated code is fully visible and exportable, so a prototype is not locked inside the tool, and every plan includes hosting on a bolt.host subdomain.

Plans: Free costs $0 with 1 million tokens a month and a 300,000-token daily cap, plus Bolt branding on published sites. Pro is $25/month with 10 million tokens a month, no daily cap, token rollover, no Bolt branding and custom domains. Teams is $30/member/month with shared workspaces and admin controls, and Enterprise is custom.

Best for: founders, hackathon teams and builders who want a clickable prototype or MVP in an afternoon. Watch out: token use grows with project size because each request re-reads project context, so long sessions on large codebases burn tokens faster than expected — it shines at zero-to-one, not at maintaining a large production app.

Watch out for

• Token use grows with project size because each request re-reads project context, so long sessions on large codebases burn tokens faster than expected.
• It shines at zero-to-one builds, not at maintaining a large production app.
• Free published sites carry Bolt branding, and custom domains need a paid plan.

Best for

Founders, hackathon teams and builders who want a clickable prototype or MVP in an afternoon. Who should skip it: teams maintaining a large production app, where token costs and context limits add up.

FAQs

What is Bolt.new? A browser-based tool from the StackBlitz team that builds, runs and deploys a full-stack app from a prompt.

Do I need to install anything? No, it runs entirely in the browser using WebContainers.

Is the code locked inside Bolt.new? No, generated code is fully visible and exportable.

Why do tokens run out faster on big projects? Because each request re-reads project context, so larger projects consume more tokens per request.
