Summary
Our read
- Where it fits best: Quick prototypes you want to export as code.
- Ease (4/5): Close to the top of our scale: a non-coder can get to a working tool, but should expect more steering and more time than with the 5/5 tools.
- Hosting: included (Bolt Cloud hosting/DB or Netlify; Supabase option). That shortens setup; it also means your app and its data live on Bolt.new's platform.
- Metering to watch: token metering; free sites go offline when data limit hit. Set a monthly spending cap before you start.
Pricing
Plans and prices
- Free
- Pro $25/mo ($18 annual, from 10M tokens; higher token tiers available)

- Enterprise custom
Several plans show a lower monthly rate when billed annually (in brackets above). Pricing source: bolt.new, checked 2026-10-16. Prices are USD per month unless noted.
Free plan
What the free plan includes
- 300K tokens/day, 1M/mo

Worth knowing: free sites go offline when data limit hit.
Use the free plan to test one real workflow end to end before paying. Free allowances are the part of any plan that changes most often.
