bolt cant edit pages, you better be happy with what it spits out, i used 2 million tokens and 4 hours of my life trying to change 4 images, very disapointing

HORRÍVEL. ESSA IA ESTELIONATÁRIA ERRA COISAS BÁSICAS DE PROPÓSITO, VOCÊ DIGITANDO EXATAMENTE COM O MELHOR PROMPT POSSÍVEL, ELA ERRA DE PROPÓSITO PRA COMER SEUS TOKENS. EMPRESA MERCENÁRIA, BANDIDOS.

Summary Bolt.new's free trial creates false expectations that don't translate to the paid experience. Significant technical issues and poor token efficiency make the professional plan a questionable investment. My Experience I upgraded to Bolt.new's Professional plan today, expecting the same smooth performance I experienced during the free trial. Unfortunately, the paid experience has been drastically different. Key Issues Encountered: Token Consumption Problems: Burned through 5,000+ tokens (50% of my monthly allocation) in a single day Most tokens were consumed fixing platform-generated errors rather than building features Poor token efficiency compared to other AI development platforms Technical Reliability: Preview page consistently fails to load System errors require multiple correction attempts Platform instability disrupts development workflow Error resolution consumes valuable tokens without producing usable code Free vs. Paid Discrepancy: Free trial worked seamlessly with minimal issues Paid plan introduces numerous technical problems Significant performance degradation after payment processing Concerns About Business Model The dramatic difference between free trial performance and paid plan reliability raises questions about intentional token consumption strategies. When platform errors force users to repeatedly prompt for corrections, it artificially inflates token usage while delivering minimal value. Recommendation For developers considering Bolt.new: Test extensively during the free trial period Monitor token consumption patterns carefully Have backup development solutions ready Consider alternatives like Cursor AI, V0, or traditional development environments Bottom Line: While the concept is promising, execution issues and poor token efficiency make it difficult to recommend the professional plan at this time. The platform needs significant reliability improvements before justifying the subscription cost.

Just awful. Didn't even build anything. Just said it did and then gaslighted me saying it did. Waste of time.

Catastrophe totale ! Bolt.new beugue H24, c'est insupportable. Impossible de se connecter à son compte, on dirait une blague. Ça rame à mort, rien ne fonctionne correctement. Franchement, pas très "smart" pour une plateforme qui se veut moderne. À fuir !

The bolt.new platform is the worst I ever experienced. They draw you with a free trial where everything works normally but once you registered, be rest assured that you aren't going to get nothing from the subscription. My story, I upgraded to the professional plan just today and before you know it, I've used over 5,000 out of 10,000 token on professional plan. The token were used basically to correct errors from their system. The preview page never loads. I should think, the algorithm is built such that once they collect your money, you'll be having issues to be resolved on the same page while you continue prompting which affects your token usage ultimately. If anyone is planning to use them, be ready to loose your money for no reason.

Worst thing ever just wasted $200 worth of tokens and deleted my whole project I spent months on

HORRIBLE PRODUCT... dont waste your money like I did... it started out well... the design wasnt great but it worked... when I tried to update the back end (using ChatGPT to help) it cut off half the home page and turned it into a 1980s display... then I wouldnt revert back to the version needed. I have GitHub connected but this has wasted days of work. when I tried to get it back on track it couldn't do it... and the test links provided just went to white screens... HORRIBLE PRODUCT why does making the back end work remove COPY from the homepage... behind frustrating and a complete waste of time and money
