## Our verdict on Bolt.new

Bolt.new is a browser-based app builder with hosting and databases built in, starting free at 1M tokens a month, though token metering governs ongoing cost.

**Best for**
Developers and founders building web apps in the browser with hosting

**Not for**
Free users who need sites without Bolt branding

### Pros

- The free plan includes 1M tokens a month with a 300K daily limit.
- SOC 2 Type II and GDPR are stated, and Teams adds SSO.

### Cons

- Free sites carry Bolt branding, and custom domains need Pro.
- Usage is metered in tokens on every plan, including the $25 Pro tier.

Based on the vendor's own pages, not hands-on testing.
