bolt.new

bolt.new helps you build custom websites, apps, and prototypes by chatting with AI instead of starting from a blank codebase. Create a prototype quickly, then grow it into something more complete—whether you’re beginning with a template or starting from a Figma design.

Key features include AI-assisted development that routes tasks to the right model automatically, aiming to balance quality and cost. Bolt also focuses on reducing friction by testing, refactoring, and iterating as you build, so you spend less time fixing errors and more time moving forward. You can also scale beyond small experiments: Bolt is designed to handle larger projects by maintaining improved built-in context.

bolt.new provides templates (including dashboards, storefronts, portfolios, and more) so you can fork a production-ready starting point and tailor it to your needs. For teams and workflows, you can also start from a prototype (or from Figma) and move into a working app.

Bolt Cloud brings built-in backend capabilities in the same interface, including hosting, databases (including unlimited databases), user management & authentication, integrations, SEO optimization, analytics, and custom domains—so you can go from prototype to a live product without stitching together multiple services. bolt.new is positioned for product managers, entrepreneurs, marketers, agencies, students, and builders looking to launch faster, with plans offered through a free start and a pricing page.
