Bolt.newReviews of bolt.new

I was able to create Mar-ketPlace.com successfully - Mario C

Honestly the AI tool works but has hiccups. The customer support is total trash. Worst ever. You will never hear from them. Their Discord is trash. No one even responds on there. I am on the $50 a month plan and cannot get a single response from support. Avoid at all costs.

It worked great until they got greedy. Whatever they did in the last few updates they completely broke the AI that built things, dont waste your money this app used to be great now its just a cash grab. Was using it for months and worked great then book, customer service is horrendous.

I really wanted Bolt.new to work, but it has been nothing but frustration. The platform constantly throws errors, even when I follow their documentation exactly. Connecting a custom domain is a nightmare, records never seem to propagate properly, and when they finally do, Bolt tells me “the domain is already in use” even though I only have one project. The editor itself quickly becomes unmanageable for any file of real size, and their attempts to split files just lead to more bugs and wasted time. Support is slow and not very helpful, and I feel like I’ve spent more hours trying to fix Bolt’s problems than actually building my project. At this point, it’s clear the product is nowhere near ready for production use. Save yourself the headache and look elsewhere.

If I could give a zero star rating I would. This scam is clearly built to consume credits only. The app is built to make you believe it checks , repairs and builds apps but does not deliver at all. I've been working on one app for over a month , used more than 75 million credits and got zero results. Testing the same prompts in other software gives results but BOLT.NEW must be one of the biggest scams ever. Should be taken offline asap.

As an experienced heavy user, using this for months from many small components to attempting to build larger form interfaces. I can say you cant build anything of use purely with bolt. It's about as useful as a gimmicky toy or small code generator. I got stuck in a sunk cos fallacy, I spent around 200 million tokens to get more and more AI slop on a simple 5 step form. Upgrading the subscription to "almost save the project" digs the hole deeper until every prompt got a hallucination or lost work, revert stopped working so i was paying to "fix" bugs and create more, or silently lose huge chunks of work that took hours. Exporting to hand fix the code is like like opening a suitcase full of dogsh**t spaghetti mess that will take hours to unpick.

They AI builds website fast but than the nightmare begins. Tokens go fast, for every minor change they eliminate a lot of tokens. IT takes tyou around 500k-1milion tokens to do a simple change such as create a new tab and ad some text and sometimes is still not doing it. You cannot connect your website to an admin or visual editor for you or your customer to do simple changes. It is possible but you need really strong knowledge about coding, if you are a beginner you have no chance. Customer support does not exist or is not helpfull. i will not go with this app at all

What a waste of time and money. Simple requests cannot be accomplished. Keeps playing dumb and burns your tokens. You cannot event find your projects form the main page. It is saved as a chat history on the left hand pane :) like in ChatGPT I just spent $25 for nothing.
