# Bolt

> Browser-based AI builder for websites, web apps and mobile apps

Bolt turns a chat prompt into a working website, web app or, through its Expo integration, a mobile app. It runs entirely in the browser with an editable code view, and Bolt Cloud supplies hosting, databases, authentication and domains inside the same project. Usage is metered in AI tokens: the free plan has daily and monthly caps, and paid plans are sold by monthly token allocation.

## Key features

- **Prompt-to-app building:** Describe an idea in chat and Bolt generates a full-stack project using JavaScript-based web frameworks. Plan Mode lets you discuss an approach before any code is written.
- **Bolt Cloud:** Hosting, databases, user authentication and domains are built into each project. Paid plans raise the hosting allowance to 30 GB of bandwidth and 1 million requests a month.
- **Code view and GitHub:** Project files can be read and edited directly in Code view, which uses no tokens, and a project can be connected to GitHub or started from an existing repository.
- **Design imports:** Start a project from a Figma frame or a Google Stitch design, or add a design system so that generated screens follow existing components.
- **Mobile apps through Expo:** Web apps are built natively in Bolt, while mobile apps for iOS and Android are built and shipped through its Expo integration.
- **Teams workspace:** A shared workspace with centralized billing, member and integration controls, team prompts and private NPM registry support, priced per member.

## Good for

- Prototyping a web app or site from a prompt without a local setup
- Developers who want to switch between prompting and editing code
- Marketers and founders who need hosting and a custom domain in one place

## Worth knowing

- The free plan stops at 300K tokens a day and 1M a month, and larger projects use more tokens per message.
- Custom domains and Supabase databases need a paid plan, and free sites show a Made in Bolt badge.
- Free sites go offline for the rest of the month once they pass 10 GB of bandwidth or 333,333 requests.
- On Teams, tokens are allotted to each paid member and are not shared across the team.
