Bolt.new costs $0 on the Free plan, $25 a month on Pro for 10 million tokens ($216 a year billed yearly, which works out to $18 a month), and $30 per member per month on Teams, with Enterprise priced by quote. Above the entry Pro plan, Bolt sells bigger token tiers: Pro 50 at $50 a month for 26 million tokens, Pro 100 at $100 for 55 million, and Pro 200 at $200. Every figure here was read from bolt.new/pricing and Bolt's own billing and hosting documentation on October 2, 2026.
The plan price is the easy part. What you actually spend depends on how many tokens your project burns, whether unused tokens survive to next month, and how much traffic your published site gets, because hosting has its own limits. This guide covers all three, then works out what a year costs if the thing you are building on Bolt is a website for a business.
How much does Bolt.new cost?
Bolt has four plan types, and the Pro plan comes in several token sizes. Yearly billing saves up to 28 percent on the entry Pro tier and about 10 percent on the larger ones.
| Plan | Billed monthly | Billed yearly | Tokens |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | $0 | 300,000 a day, 1 million a month |
| Pro (10M) | $25 | $216 a year ($18/mo) | 10 million a month, no daily limit |
| Pro 50 | $50 | $540 a year ($45/mo) | 26 million a month |
| Pro 100 | $100 | About 10 percent off | 55 million a month |
| Pro 200 | $200 | About 10 percent off | The largest Pro allowance |
| Teams | $30 per member | Discounted yearly | Pro allowance per member, not shared |
| Enterprise | Custom quote | Custom | |
The yearly figures for Pro and Pro 50 come straight from the worked examples in Bolt's billing documentation. The pricing page itself only says "save up to 28% with yearly billing", and $216 against twelve months at $25 is exactly that 28 percent.
What each Bolt plan includes
Free is a real trial, not a demo. You can build and publish, but your usage is capped by a daily bar that refreshes every day and a monthly bar that resets on the 1st, and unused tokens do not roll over. Published projects live on a bolt.host address with a Made in Bolt badge, and custom domains are not available. You can create as many databases as you like, though using Supabase needs a paid plan.
Pro removes the daily limit, removes the badge, adds custom domains, includes Pro hosting (more on that below) and lets your unused tokens roll over. The tier you pick only changes the token allowance and the price. Teams adds centralized billing, access management and private npm registries, and each member gets their own Pro allowance that cannot be pooled. Enterprise adds SSO, audit logs and around the clock priority support.
How Bolt tokens work
Everything the AI does in Bolt is metered in tokens. Every prompt sends your project's context to the model and gets code back, and both directions count. That is why the same request costs more in a large project than in a small one: there is more code for the model to read before it answers. Long debugging loops, where you ask the agent to fix an error it introduced, are where token budgets usually disappear.
Two habits change the bill more than the tier does. First, Bolt's Plan Mode lets the agent think through a change before writing code, which cuts wasted rewrites. Second, edits you make yourself in Code view do not use tokens at all. Bolt points this out for Free users who hit the daily cap, but it applies to everyone: if you can change a line of text yourself, do it there.
Do Bolt tokens roll over?
On paid plans, yes, with a limit. Tokens from a paid subscription roll over for one additional month, so each month's allowance is valid for up to two months in total, and only while you keep a paid subscription. Rolled-over tokens are spent first. Free plan tokens never roll over.
Tokens bought as a reload are different: Bolt says reload tokens do not expire. The catch is that reloads are only available on the highest Pro tier, and the price per reload depends on your plan, with annual plans on higher tiers paying less per 10 million tokens. For everyone else, the way to get more tokens mid-month is to upgrade.
What happens when you upgrade or downgrade
Upgrading mid-cycle is handled fairly. On monthly billing you pay the price difference and receive the token difference immediately. Bolt's own example: on Pro 50 with 6 million tokens left, upgrading to Pro 100 costs $50 and adds 29 million tokens, for 35 million in hand, and your renewal date stays the same. Annual upgrades are prorated by whole months remaining.
Downgrades only take effect at the start of your next billing cycle, and you cannot move an annual plan to a monthly one. If you think you might scale down, stay monthly until you know your real usage.
What Bolt hosting costs
This is the line most Bolt pricing articles skip, and it is the one that matters once real customers visit your site. Hosting is included, but it is metered, and the limits apply to your whole account rather than to each project.
| Hosting level | Monthly allowance | Rough capacity | When you go over |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | 10 GB bandwidth, 333,333 requests | About 10,000 to 15,000 visits | The site goes offline until the month resets; no way to raise the limit |
| Pro (any paid plan) | 30 GB bandwidth, 1 million requests | Often 100,000+ visits | Pay as you go up to a spending cap you set; at the cap the site pauses |
Two details matter for a business. If you publish several sites, they share one allowance, so a busy project can take a quiet one offline with it. And image-heavy pages use bandwidth much faster than Bolt's visit estimates assume. Whichever plan you are on, set the spending cap deliberately and put an uptime monitor that alerts you when the site stops responding on anything customers rely on, because a paused site does not announce itself.
Custom domains on Bolt
Custom domains need a paid plan. You can connect a domain you already own, or buy one inside Bolt once billing is set up. Domains bought through Bolt are registered via Name.com, locked for 60 days from purchase, and capped at 10 per account to start. You keep managing them even if you later drop to Free, but a published site on Free cannot use them.
Which Bolt plan do you need?
For one person building a prototype or a small site, the entry Pro plan at $25 a month is the right start, and its rollover means a quiet month funds a busy one. Move to Pro 50 when you regularly run out before the month ends; the token price per million drops from $2.50 on Pro to about $1.92 on Pro 50. Teams only makes sense once several people need access to the same projects, since allowances are per member and cannot be pooled. Pay yearly on the entry Pro tier once you know you will stay, because 28 percent is a real saving; on bigger tiers the yearly saving is closer to 10 percent and the commitment is harder to justify.
What a business website costs on Bolt for a year
Here is honest math for the most common non-developer use: a five to eight page site for a service business, on its own domain. Token use is shown as behavior rather than a number, because Bolt does not publish what a given page costs to build.
| Scenario | Plan for a year | Hosting | Domain |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small site, built once, rarely edited | $216 yearly or $300 monthly | Inside the Pro allowance | Your own, or bought in Bolt |
| Site with frequent AI edits and fixes | $540 yearly on Pro 50, or $600 monthly | Inside the Pro allowance | Same |
| Busy site with heavy images | $216 to $600 | Pay as you go above 30 GB, to your cap | Same |
The plan plus hosting is inexpensive. What the table leaves out is the work. On Bolt you decide the page structure, write or approve every headline and paragraph, set titles and meta descriptions, and fix whatever the agent breaks along the way. Bolt is a development environment, and for a developer that is exactly the point. For a business owner who wanted a website, it means buying a coding tool to avoid writing code, and still owning every decision a web designer would normally make.
That is the gap AgentSite fills. You describe the business once, and the agent plans the pages, writes every one, sets titles, meta descriptions and the sitemap, and publishes the site on your domain with hosting and SSL included. AgentSite plans start at $49 a month billed yearly or $99 month to month, with 150 edits a month on Starter, no token meter and no bandwidth cap to watch. Our Bolt.new alternative comparison puts the two side by side, including where Bolt is the better choice.

Bolt.new pricing FAQ
Is Bolt.new free?
Bolt has a Free plan with 300,000 tokens a day and 1 million a month. You can build and publish on a bolt.host address, with a Made in Bolt badge and no custom domain. Free hosting stops serving your site for the rest of the month once it uses 10 GB of bandwidth or 333,333 requests.
How much is Bolt Pro?
Bolt Pro is $25 a month for 10 million tokens, or $216 a year on yearly billing, which is $18 a month. Larger Pro tiers cost $50 for 26 million tokens, $100 for 55 million and $200 for the top tier. Every paid tier removes the badge, allows custom domains and includes Pro hosting.
How many tokens do I need to build a website on Bolt?
Bolt does not publish a per-page figure, and token use grows with project size and with every round of fixes. A small static site often fits inside the 10 million tokens on entry Pro. Sites with forms, databases and many revisions are where people move to Pro 50. Watch your usage bar in the first month before committing to a yearly plan.
Why did my Bolt tokens run out so fast?
Because each prompt sends your project's code to the model, so larger projects cost more per request, and debugging loops repeat that cost. Use Plan Mode before big changes, make small text edits yourself in Code view, which uses no tokens, and keep prompts specific so the agent changes less code per request.
Does Bolt charge for hosting?
Hosting is included in every plan, within limits. Free covers 10 GB of bandwidth and 333,333 requests a month with a hard stop. Paid plans cover 30 GB and 1 million requests across your whole account, and you can pay as you go above that up to a spending cap you set.
Is Bolt cheaper than Lovable?
On the entry plan they cost the same, $25 a month, and Bolt's yearly billing brings its entry plan down to $18 a month. They meter differently: Bolt sells tokens that roll over for a month, Lovable sells message credits. Which is cheaper in practice depends on how many prompts and fixes your project needs.
