What our research says

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

Chattee

Chattee's differentiator is not the generation quality — everyone claims that — but that you can export the code and walk away, and that a German GmbH is on the hook for the data. Roles and approval workflows out of the box put it closer to internal-tool builders than to landing-page generators. The credit ceiling on the entry plan is low enough that serious iteration pushes you to Pro fast.

Pros

  • Generates database, authentication, roles and approval workflows, not just a UI
  • Code export with self-hosting is supported, so the generated app is not trapped in the platform
  • Direct code editing for developers alongside the prompt loop
  • Custom domains and SSL from the Pro tier, white-labelling for agencies

Cons

  • No free tier — evaluation is a time-limited trial
  • 100 build credits on Lite goes quickly, since each rebuild spends credits
  • Charged in euros, so the dollar cost moves with the exchange rate
  • No public API and the company publishes little beyond the legal notice

Which one fits

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

Choose Chattee if you need

  • Internal tools that need roles, approvals and a database rather than a static page
  • EU teams that need a German data-protection story on the hosting
  • Agencies white-labelling small client apps
