Lovable vs Bolt: AI App Builder Pricing Compared

Short answer

Both Pro plans cost $25/month, but they meter differently: Lovable is credit-based, Bolt is token-based (from 10M tokens/month). Choose Lovable for team roles and permissions; choose Bolt for a lean solo browser builder.

Choose Lovable

Choose Lovable if you want shared workspaces, roles, and permissions for small teams building apps quickly.

Choose Bolt

Choose Bolt if you're an individual who wants a token-based browser builder and predictable per-token mental model.

Lovable and Bolt are both AI app builders priced at $25/month, so the real difference is how usage is metered. Lovable uses monthly credits with top-ups and adds shared workspaces with roles and permissions, making it friendlier to small teams. Bolt is token-based, starting at 10M tokens/month, which maps cleanly to project size and file context.

Token use on Bolt grows with how much code and context the model handles, so larger projects consume faster. Lovable's credit model can be harder to predict but is straightforward for prompt-driven building. Both run entirely in the browser.
