Tempo Labs
IDE for design, product and engineering teams working with agents
v0
Vercel's AI agent for building and deploying full-stack web apps
Which one is for you
Pick Tempo Labs if
- Fits if a design, product and engineering team shares one repo
- Works for teams that want agents taking tickets in parallel
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you want a prompt-to-app builder, since it's now a team IDE
- Pricey if you add people: $50 for one and $40 for each extra
- Tight if you stay free: 7 days of history and 500 local tests a month
- Watch out: extra tests past the allowance cost $4.50 per 1,000 on Pro
Pick v0 if
- Fits if your team already deploys on Vercel
- Works for designers or product managers with a mockup to turn into a working interface
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you're a team, since Plus is $30 for every user and Business $100
- Not for you if you want a free plan to stay on, as new accounts get a one-time $5 of credits and a 7-message daily limit
- Skip it if you expected it with your Vercel plan, because v0 is billed separately
- Watch out: generation pauses when your credits run out, until you buy more
- Watch out: Plus is shown beside a crossed-out $90 with no end date, and there's no Android or desktop app
How we grade them
| 1.8GPATempo LabsWeak | 2.4GPAv0Fair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | D$50 a month for one user and $40 for each extra, above the category's $30 dearest-tenth line. | DPlus is $30 per user a month, past the $29 where the dearest tenth of builders here begins, and every teammate pays it. You get $30 of credits back monthly plus $2 a day on login, but when they run out generation stops until you buy more. Business is $100 per user, and none of it comes with a Vercel plan. |
| Free plan and trial | CFree: 250 issues, 100 docs, 500 local tests a month and 7 days of history. Fine to look at, tight to run a team on. | CNew accounts get $5 of credits, once, with a 7-message daily limit. They never renew, and free users can't even buy more without upgrading, so it's a short trial rather than a plan. Design Mode and GitHub sync are included while it lasts. |
| Features | CIssue board, designs as code, parallel agents, feedback intake and a CI view. It no longer builds apps from a prompt. | BIt covers the whole job: a prompt, a screenshot or a Figma file becomes a working full-stack app, and it diagnoses and fixes its own errors. Design Mode edits by eye, every branch gets a preview URL, GitHub sync shows the diff, PR and CI checks, and Supabase or Neon plug in. Bolt matches it, so no A. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating on record. It's an IDE and a workflow to set up around your repo, agents and Slack. | B4.8 from about 850 App Store ratings, under the thousand we want behind an A. Prompt it, then adjust the result by eye in Design Mode, which is on the free plan too, so you're not re-prompting for every small change. |
| Platforms and integrations | CMac, Windows and Linux, which is computers only. Only Slack is named as an integration. | BThe web plus an iPhone app, with no Android or desktop app listed. It connects to Vercel, GitHub, Figma, Supabase, Neon, Upstash, Snowflake and Shopify, and a REST Platform API and SDK let your own code drive it. |
| Best for | a team IDE with agents on an issue board | teams that already deploy on Vercel |

More comparisons
How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
