Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Bolt.new

  • The free plan is capped at 300K tokens a day and 1M tokens a month
  • Pro starts at 10M tokens a month for $25, so heavy sessions are metered rather than unlimited
  • Team seats are billed at $30 per member per month and tokens are not pooled across the team
  • Unused tokens roll over for one additional month only, so they expire after two

Micro.blog

  • Base $5/month plan does not include multiple blogs or newsletters, which require the $10/month Premium tier
  • Video hosting is limited to the $20/month Studio plan and caps videos at 20 minutes long
