What Bolt.new does

Bolt builds websites, apps, slides and prototypes from a chat, and can start from a Figma file, a GitHub repo or a team template. It picks a model for each task and tests and fixes its own code. Bolt Cloud adds hosting with custom domains and analytics, databases and user sign-in, so a finished project can go live without separate tools.
