Bolt.new pricing: plans, tokens and limits explained

Bolt.new costs $0 on Free (300K tokens/day, 1M tokens/month, Bolt branding), $25/month for Pro (from 10M tokens/month, no daily token cap, custom domains) and $30/month per member for Teams; Enterprise is custom and yearly billing saves up to 28%. Unused paid-plan tokens roll over for one extra month under a policy dated July 1, 2025. All figures from bolt.new/pricing, read 2026-09-23; US-listed monthly billing.

Bolt.new's Free plan costs $0 and caps work at 300,000 tokens a day and 1 million a month, with Bolt branding left on the sites it hosts 1. Pro costs $25 per month on monthly billing and starts at 10 million tokens per month with no daily token cap, Teams costs $30 per member per month, and Enterprise is custom-priced on annual contracts billed by consumption 1. Yearly billing takes up to 28 percent off, and unused paid-plan tokens roll over for one extra month 1.

One disambiguation first, because the name collides: Bolt.new is the AI website and app builder whose pricing page links to StackBlitz for its terms and privacy policy, not bolt.com, the checkout platform for merchants and shoppers, and not bolt.eu, the European app for rides, scooters and food delivery 1 2 3. All prices below are US-listed figures from the vendor's own pages.

What each Bolt.new plan costs, and what each one adds

The base tier does the shared work everywhere up the ladder. Free, at $0, includes public and private projects, website hosting, unlimited databases, a 300K daily token limit, a 1M monthly token limit, Bolt branding on websites, a 10MB upload limit, and up to 333k web requests (the page does not state that request cap's reset period) 1. Each tier above is that base plus a delta:

  • Pro, $25 per month billed monthly: removes the daily token limit, starts at 10M tokens per month, drops the branding, and adds private site sharing, a 100MB upload limit, up to 1M web requests, rollover of unused tokens, custom domain support, SEO boosting, expanded database capacity with a choice of database provider, access to the newest AI models, and connectors and MCPs 1
  • Teams, $30 per month and per member billed monthly: adds centralized billing, team-level access management, granular admin controls with user provisioning, organization-wide sharing, private NPM registry support, design-system knowledge with per-package prompts, and priority support 1
  • Enterprise, custom pricing on an annual contract billed by consumption: adds unlimited tokens under the same consumption pricing, SSO with audit logs, SOC 2, GDPR and ISO 27001 compliance with advanced security reviews, dedicated infrastructure and a dedicated account manager, 24/7 priority support, flexible procurement and MSA billing, and data-governance retention policies 1

Tokens on Teams are assigned per member and never shared, so the per-member price buys each person a private allotment, not a slice of one pool 1.

Where the token limits actually bite

The meter mostly runs on sync, not conversation: Bolt spends most of its tokens reading and syncing the project's files to the AI, so a larger project burns more tokens per message 4. On Free, the 300K daily allowance resets every day and unused daily tokens die at the reset, so a skipped day starts at 300K, never 600K; the 1M monthly allowance resets on the first of each calendar month, while paid plans reset on the subscription's renewal date 4. One escape hatch costs nothing: direct edits in Code view consume no tokens 4.

Run the arithmetic the plan page leaves to you. Pro's starting 10M monthly tokens spread across a 30-day month is about 333,000 tokens a day, roughly 11 percent above Free's daily cap 1. The $25 is therefore not mainly a daily raise: it buys removal of the daily stop plus a tenfold monthly ceiling, 10M against 1M. At the starting allowance, Pro works out to $2.50 per million tokens, a useful anchor because no rung above the entry tier carries a published price: Bolt's docs route upgrades through the in-app My Subscription > Upgrade plan control, and neither those docs nor the pricing page print what that screen charges 1 4.

The rollover rule: two-month tokens, spent oldest first

Since July 1, 2025, unused tokens from a paid subscription roll over for one additional month, making them valid for up to two months in total, and an active paid subscription is required to spend rolled-over tokens 1. The support docs fill in the mechanics:

  • Tokens are consumed first in, first out: rolled-over tokens burn before the fresh allocation 4
  • Free-plan tokens never roll over; they arrive as fixed one-month buckets 4
  • Cancelling, or a failed payment, forfeits every allocated token including rollover when the billing cycle ends; resubscribing before the two-month expiry restores what had not expired 4
  • Downgrading to a cheaper paid tier keeps the higher-tier tokens until they expire, while upgrading mid-cycle grants tokens valid for two months from the cycle's start, not from the upgrade day 4
  • Annual plans still allocate tokens monthly, under the same two-month expiry 4

The steady state is the part neither page prints: with two-month validity and oldest-first consumption, the most rolled-over allocation you can ever have banked is one month's allowance, and a fully used month banks nothing; purchased reload tokens sit outside that bound because they never expire 4. Rollover is burst insurance for lumpy projects, a light month funding a heavy one, not a savings account that grows.

What the pricing page does not price

Two numbers never appear on the plan cards. The first is the ladder above the entry tier: Pro is listed as starting at 10M tokens per month, and the support docs name higher rungs, Pro 20 and Pro 50, in their worked examples, but the pricing page carries no price for either; the docs route upgrades through that same in-app My Subscription > Upgrade plan control without printing what it offers 1 4. The second is the overage rate: token reloads can be bought only on the highest individual monthly Pro plan or on annual Pro plans, reload tokens never expire, the price per 10M tokens varies by plan, and higher-tier annual plans pay less per 10M; the actual figure shows only at the reload screen 4. Budget from the published entry rate, $2.50 per million, and treat everything above the entry rung as an in-app quote.

Yearly billing: what the 28 percent is worth in dollars

The yearly toggle promises savings of up to 28 percent 1. The full 28 percent applied to Pro's $25 is $18 a month, a $216 yearly bill against $300, keeping $84; the same ceiling applied to Teams' $30 would be $21.60 per member per month 1. The "up to" matters, because 28 percent is the maximum across the catalogue rather than a guaranteed cut on every plan, so read the toggle's own yearly price before committing. Annual billing also changes the token economics beyond the discount, since annual Pro plans can buy reloads and higher annual tiers pay less per 10M reloaded tokens 4.

Bolt.new against Cursor, Windsurf and Lovable

Bolt's $25 entry paid tier now costs $5 more than Devin's Pro and $17 more than Cursor's restricted entry tier, while landing $5 under Cursor's Premium, and the pricing models differ underneath:

  • Cursor: now sold as part of The X Subscription, one subscription covering Grok, Cursor and X, with Free at $0 on limited usage, then Plus at $8 per month, a restricted tier with no third-party models, Premium at $30, Super at $100 and Ultra at $200, the paid tiers each carrying a weekly usage pool; Teams seats mirror the individual ladder at $30, $100 or $200 per user per month, while teams created before the switch keep their legacy $40 Standard and $120 Premium seats 5 6
  • Windsurf, whose windsurf.com home is now Devin Desktop, Cognition's agent IDE, and whose pricing page is a Devin plan list: Free is $0, Pro is $20 per month, Max is $200, and Teams runs $80 per month plus $40 per full dev seat, the same figures the Windsurf editor carried under its own name 7 8
  • Lovable, which describes itself as an AI software engineer that lets anyone build for the web, prices plans in credits rather than tokens: the free tier grants 5 build credits a day, up to 30 a month, and workspaces carry unlimited members because plans are priced by included credits, not seats 9

The structural read: Bolt sells a published token count, with a published daily cap on Free and an unpublished reload rate above the entry tier 1; Cursor and Devin sell quota allowances with overflow billed from prepaid credit at published token or API rates rather than per-message counts 5 7; Lovable sells credits that also cover hosting and AI features inside deployed apps 9. Team pricing splits along the same seam, from $30 per member at Bolt and $30 per user for a Cursor Premium seat to $80 plus $40 per seat at Devin and no per-seat charge at Lovable 1 6 7 9. One quiet convergence: Lovable's monthly plan credits expire two months after issue, the same shelf life Bolt gave its tokens in July 2025 9 1. The sibling pages in this set give Cursor, Windsurf and Lovable the same treatment, and the AI subscription calculator totals a stack of these tools against one budget.

Which Bolt.new plan fits which builder

Free fits learning and small projects: because token spend scales with project size, a compact project stretches the 300K daily allowance a long way, and Code-view edits cost nothing at all 4. Pro is the shipping tier, buying the custom domain, the removed branding, private sharing and the 10M monthly runway 1. Teams is a $5 per member premium, 20 percent over Pro, that buys the admin layer and centralized billing rather than cheaper tokens; a five-person Teams subscription at $150 a month against $125 for five standalone Pros is exactly the price of the management features 1. Enterprise is for SSO, compliance, consumption-priced unlimited tokens and a dedicated account manager 1. Whatever the tier, unspent paid tokens die at the two-month mark and vanish at cancellation, so spend down before switching off 4.
