Bolt.new pricing: what every plan costs, and what the bill depends on
Bolt.new publishes four offers on bolt.new/pricing: a free tier, a paid personal tier at $25 a month billed monthly, a paid team tier at $30 a month per member billed monthly, and a Custom tier with no listed price. Those figures and limits were read on 2026-09-14. The page title names Bolt as an AI powered website and app builder.
The sticker price is not the whole bill. Bolt prices AI work in tokens. Its FAQ says most usage goes to syncing the project file system to the model, so a larger project spends more tokens per message. Free caps daily use; paid tiers start at 10 million tokens a month on the $25 card.
That structure is what a prompt-to-app builder charges once hosting and databases ride along. The sections below stay on Bolt's own price list.

Why the monthly price is a floor, not a ceiling
Bolt sells tokens, not a fixed box of features. The free tier stops you at 300,000 tokens a day and one million tokens a month. The paid personal tier removes the daily cap and starts you at ten million tokens a month on the card read 2026-09-14.
Bolt's FAQ ties token burn to project size. Syncing more files to the model on each message costs more. A small landing page and a growing full-stack app therefore hit different ceilings at the same subscription price.
Paid subscriptions can roll unused tokens forward. Starting July 1, 2025, bolt.new/pricing's FAQ says paid tokens roll over for one extra month while the subscription stays active, so they can last up to two months total.
Teams billing multiplies the team tier. The FAQ says each paid member gets a monthly token allotment by tier and tokens are not shared between members.
Three questions that decide the bill, in order
Each one is answerable from the public page before you subscribe, and each one moves the number away from the entry $0 or $25 figure:
How large is the project already?
Bolt's FAQ says file-system sync drives most token use. More files mean more tokens per prompt even when the question is small.
Do you need team controls or only a personal workspace?
The $25 card is a single-user style bundle on 2026-09-14. The $30 per member card adds billing, access management, and org sharing. Budget per seat if more than one builder needs paid limits.
Will traffic or requests outgrow the included hosting row?
Free allows up to 333k web requests on the pricing page. The $25 tier allows up to 1M. Heavy traffic can force upgrades or architecture changes the token line does not spell out.
What hosting on the card does and does not promise
Bolt includes website hosting, databases, and request limits in the same table as token grants. That is convenient for a first deploy.
It is still a builder subscription. The pricing page does not list customer support mail, marketing cadence, payment operations, or legal upkeep as included line items.
If the goal is a published app you maintain yourself, that scope fits. If the goal is a company that keeps running after the first deploy, the missing work is operational rather than a missing Bolt feature.

Where a business operator fits, if that is what you are pricing
Bolt.new sits in the AI website and app builder category. Empyre sits in the AI business operator category with names like Polsia, Naive, Egbe, Polycorp, and Agentiq: agents that build and then keep operating the company on a schedule. Paid plans there are $49, $149, and $299 a month with AI spend budgets inside each, not a token pool for prompting a builder. Founders keep one hundred percent of customer revenue. That comparison only matters if the purchase is ongoing operations after launch, not a faster first deploy.
