Lovable

It’s like having a senior dev on tap who actually enjoys building SaaS MVPs as much as I do.

Bolt.new

I talked to my browser for five minutes and it gave me a whole app—if that isn't magic, I don't know what is.

Pricing

Lovable

Free tier
5 messages per day on the free plan. Enough to explore the product, not enough to build anything substantial.
Cliff
5 messages is a single small feature. Any real project exhausts the free tier within an hour.
Paid monthly
Lovable Pro at $25/month for 100 messages. Agency plans available for higher volume.

Bolt.new

Free tier
150,000 tokens per day on the free plan. Resets daily — enough for real iterative building.
Cliff
Complex apps with lots of back-and-forth iteration can burn through 150k tokens in a few hours of active development.
Paid monthly
Bolt Pro at $20/month for higher daily token limits and faster generation. Team plans available.

AIght’s take

Lovable

Pretty, fast, and the Supabase integration is the cleanest one-click backend I've seen. The catch is that the abstraction wants you to stay inside it — exporting and owning the code outright is more work than the marketing suggests.

Bolt.new

Best of the prompt-to-full-stack tools right now. The output is real Next.js, not a sandboxed toy, which means you can actually keep building after the demo wears off.
