Pros and cons

Bolt

Pros

  • Chat-to-app flow with live preview, requiring no local setup
  • Built-in database, authentication, hosting and custom domains in one project
  • Free plan includes hosting, unlimited databases and private projects
  • Expo integration covers iOS and Android apps from the same prompt flow
  • Imports from Figma, GitHub and Lovable, and supports MCP connectors
  • Paid plans roll unused tokens over

Cons

  • Token-based usage: the Free plan is capped at 1M tokens per month and 300K per day, and larger projects use more tokens per message
  • Max agent, custom domains and Bolt branding removal require a paid plan
  • Free-plan sites go offline for the rest of the month when hosting limits are exceeded
  • Projects started for web do not easily convert to mobile; mobile must be requested in the first prompt
  • No public API and no native mobile app for Bolt itself

Rork

Pros

  • Produces native Swift, Kotlin and React code rather than webview wrappers, per its docs.
  • Covers the full path to release, including TestFlight, App Store and Google Play submission helpers.
  • Pro plan starts at $20/month with 100 credits.
  • Built-in backend (free in beta) plus Supabase and Firebase options.

Cons

  • Max apps are iOS-only and cannot be published to Google Play or run on the web.
  • iOS builds and cloud simulator sessions consume extra credits.
