Tool
A
Bolt.new
StackBlitz's in-browser AI app builder with hosting and databases built in.
⚠ Preliminary, based on public research, hands-on test pending. These scores come from a desk review of public sources (official pricing pages, docs, changelogs), linked on each tool page. Rex hasn't run the hands-on tests yet, so tiers shown are projected. Under our rubric, a tool's official tier is capped at B until it's tested.
What looks good
- Runs the whole dev environment in the browser, no local setup
- Free hosting on bolt.host and unlimited databases on every plan
- Paid tokens roll over for an extra month
Watch-outs
- Token burn grows with project size, since the file system is synced to the AI each message (per Bolt's own FAQ)
- Free-plan sites go offline for the month if they exceed hosting limits
- Supabase databases need Pro or Teams
From public sources below, not from our own hands-on testing (yet).
