What our research says

AppWizzy

The differentiator is the runtime: you get a real server, a real database and a Git repo instead of a preview sandbox you can never leave. That makes hand-off to a developer possible, which most prompt-to-app tools make painful. Credits are stingy at the entry tier, so plan on iterating carefully.

Pros

  • Apps run on a provisioned server with Postgres or MySQL, not a sandbox
  • Git-native output that opens in VS Code, so hand-off to a developer works
  • One-click deploy through a CI/CD pipeline with always-on hosting
  • Refund policy on credits burnt by bad AI edits

Cons

  • 25 credits a month at $20 disappears fast on an iterative build
  • Free tier apps must be public — private projects need a paid plan
  • Web stacks only: no mobile targets
  • Company details are thin beyond the Flatlogic connection

Bolt.new

Bolt is the quickest way to get from a sentence to a running web app you can click, and Bolt Cloud now removes the usual 'where does this deploy' problem for small projects. Treat the token meter as the real price: a complex app burns through the entry allowance fast, and the free tier is for trying the product, not shipping from it.

Pros

  • Whole toolchain runs in the browser, so there is no environment to set up or keep alive
  • Starts from a prompt, Figma design, GitHub repo or template, and exports back to GitHub
  • Bolt Cloud bundles hosting, databases and auth, which most prompt-to-app tools leave to you
  • Unused Pro tokens roll over, unlike most rivals' monthly allowances

Cons

  • Token-based pricing is hard to forecast; one long debugging session can eat days of allowance
  • Free tier is throttled daily (300K tokens) and carries Bolt branding
  • Yearly discount is advertised without the actual yearly prices on the page
  • No public API found, so Bolt cannot be driven from a script or CI

Which one fits

Choose AppWizzy if you need

  • prototypes that need to survive into a real codebase
  • teams that want Git and VS Code access to generated code
  • internal tools needing a persistent database rather than mock data

Choose Bolt.new if you need

  • Founders and designers who want a clickable prototype or landing page the same afternoon
  • Developers scaffolding a front end or internal tool before taking it into their own editor
  • Teams turning a Figma mock into a working front end without hand-coding the first pass
