Tested: Bolt.new Free plan, in browser · 2026-10-16
Free tier: Yes: Free forever, no card — 300K tokens/day and 1M tokens/month; unused Free tokens do not roll over; public and private projects; website hosting with Bolt branding and up to 333k web requests; 10MB upload limit (bolt.new/pricing, 2026-11-12).
Our T1 todo prompt gave a working preview in about 68s.
Pros- Working todo app preview in about 68 seconds
- Every T1 check passed with zero fixes
- Free one-click publish to a .bolt.host URL
Cons- Added an unrequested 'Clear done' feature
- Free plan is token-capped at 1M per month and 300K per day
Best if: Non-coders and fast prototypers who want a working web app from a prompt, entirely in the browser. Bolt Free suits in-browser StackBlitz builds with published Free token caps and free .bolt.host publish. Lovable Free uses a different credit meter and feature set. Overall scores came from separate 2026-10-16 single runs, not one head-to-head session. Do not rank Free capacity by comparing tokens to credits.

Tested: Base44 Free plan, in browser · 2026-10-16
Free tier: Yes: Free plan with 25 message credits/mo, up to 5 message credits/day within that monthly total (official docs, 2026-11-12), 100 integration credits/mo, and up to 5 apps. Only the personal signup workspace gets free message credits; other Free workspaces get integration credits only.
Our T1 todo prompt gave a working preview in about 3.4 minutes.

- The build cost only 1 of 25 free monthly credits
- Free publish to a *.base44.app subdomain
Cons- Slower than Bolt: about 3.4 minutes to a working preview

Tested: Lovable Free plan, in browser · 2026-10-16
Free tier: Yes: ongoing Free — 5 build credits/day (30/month grant cap), 20 Cloud + 4 AI + 1 connector credit/month, plus a daily chat allowance
Our T1 todo prompt gave a working preview in about 90s and used 0.70 credits.
Pros- Working preview in about 90 seconds
- Every T1 check passed in the editor preview
- The build used only 0.70 of 10 daily free credits (observed 2026-10-16; current Free docs list 5/day as of 2026-11-06)
Cons- At the direct preview URL, adding a task did nothing (unverified on a published build)
- The first Build click opened a mode menu instead of starting
Best if: Non-coders and founders who want a polished web app from a prompt, quickly. Lovable fits that flow with free publish and Cloud, AI, and connector starter grants under the current Free plan. Bolt.new is a separate in-browser StackBlitz builder metered in tokens. Scores (Lovable 8.0, Bolt 8.7) are from separate 2026-10-16 single runs of the same T1 task shape, not one shared session. Meter units differ; do not infer more free builds by comparing 30 credits a month with 1M tokens a month.
