What Bolt.new does

Bolt.new is an agentic AI application builder operated by StackBlitz that lets users generate, run, edit, and deploy full-stack web and cross-platform applications from natural-language prompts inside a browser. The product is built on WebContainer, StackBlitz's proprietary in-browser Node.js runtime powered by WebAssembly, which eliminates local setup and lets Bolt Agent — an autonomous coding agent available in Standard and Max tiers — run, test, refactor, and iterate on generated code in real time. Bolt.new routes tasks automatically across large language models (principally Anthropic's Claude family), and extends the agent with eight built-in MCP-based Connectors (Notion, Linear, GitHub, Miro, Sentry, Context7, Granola, Jira), a Design System Agents module that ingests the customer's own UI components, npm packages, Storybook, and brand guidelines, and a managed Bolt Cloud backend covering databases, authentication, hosting, analytics, and custom domains.

Bolt.new monetizes through a four-tier subscription: a free tier, Pro at $25 per user per month, Teams at $30 per member per month with central billing and design-system knowledge, and a custom Enterprise tier with SSO, SOC 2 Type 2, HIPAA/FedRAMP readiness, and BYOK deployment to AWS or Azure customer-owned tenants. Go-to-market is product-led self-serve on bolt.new with a sales-assisted enterprise motion, supplemented by Microsoft Marketplace distribution (Azure, Microsoft 365, Copilot, Entra ID, Microsoft Defender) and a 2026 partnership with Google Labs' Stitch for design-to-code export. The customer base spans three primary segments: individual vibe coders and small business owners (80% of SMB users self-identify as non-technical), teams and agencies building client deliverables, and Fortune 500 enterprises (the company states 75% of the Fortune 500 use Bolt.new, with named logos including Salesforce, HubSpot, Meta, Mozilla, Shopify, and Intel). The company is privately held by StackBlitz, headquartered in San Francisco, with engineering presence in greater Munich, Germany; total disclosed funding is approximately $113 million across a $7.9M 2022 round and a $105.5M January 2025 Series 2 led by Emergence Capital and Google Ventures.

Revenue model

1. Freemium subscription: Free tier with 300K tokens daily and 1M tokens per month, Bolt branding, and limited features drives top-of-funnel acquisition.
2. Pro subscription (per user, monthly): Pro plan at $25/month per user. Starts at 10M tokens per month, no daily limit, unused tokens roll over one month, custom domains, expanded database, image editing with AI, no Bolt branding.
3. Teams subscription (per-seat): Teams plan at $30 per member per month. Adds centralized billing, team-level access management, granular admin controls, organization sharing, private NPM registries, and per-package Design System prompts.
4. Enterprise contracts: Custom-priced Enterprise tier with SSO, audit logs, compliance support, dedicated account manager, 24/7 priority support, custom workflows, SLAs, data governance & retention policies, and onboarding/training. Multi-year contracts likely.
5. Usage-based token consumption: Beyond plan allotments, higher token usage is the implicit scaling lever — unused tokens roll over but paid plans are required to access them, tying spend to AI consumption.

Core offering

Bolt.new is a browser-based AI app builder, operated by StackBlitz, that lets users describe what they want in natural language and have an autonomous coding agent (Bolt Agent) generate, run, and deploy full-stack web and cross-platform applications directly in the browser. The platform bundles a backend-as-a-service (Bolt Cloud) for databases, authentication, hosting, and custom domains, and ships enterprise modules including Design System Agents and MCP-based Connectors for live context from tools like Notion, Linear, GitHub, and Jira.

Product overview

Bolt.new is a single agentic app-building platform (by StackBlitz) organized as a core product with a small set of modules rather than a portfolio of separate brands. The core product, Bolt.new, is an in-browser AI builder for websites, apps, and prototypes, powered by Bolt Agent — Bolt's autonomous coding agent available in two tiers, the default Bolt Agent (Standard) included for all users and Bolt Agent Max for higher-intelligence generation on Pro. Bolt Cloud supplies the bundled enterprise backend (databases, auth, hosting, analytics, custom domains). Enterprise-grade functionality is delivered through Bolt for Enterprise, which layers on Design System Agents (ingest a customer's real components, npm packages, Storybook, and brand assets so generated code is production-aligned), BYOK deployment to AWS/Azure, and SSO/compliance controls. Cross-product context is provided by Bolt Connectors (eight built-in MCP integrations with Notion, Linear, GitHub, Miro, Sentry, Context7, Granola, and Jira, plus custom MCP connectors). Team Templates (on the Teams plan) standardize how teams start new projects. The platform is sold in four tiers — Free, Pro ($25/month), Teams ($30/month per member), and a custom Enterprise plan.
