   What users say

   The original post on r/lovable calls it the strongest of the AI coding builders the author had used.

   That post also says a large share of credits goes to asking for the same fix again. On r/boltnewbuilders, a commenter says Lovable changed what a credit pays for without a clear email.

   • “I absolutely think Lovable is the cream of the crop in AI coding. That being said, I’d say 30-40% of my usage is constantly asking to fix the same problem over and over.”

     Reddit

   • “Lovable is not good. The company tends to change their terms without noticing their paying customers.”

   People still use Bolt to scaffold a project quickly, then leave for a normal editor when the fixes get repetitive.

   The loud complaint on r/boltnewbuilders is token burn: long sessions spent restating the same bug.

   • “I've been using Bolt.new, but nothing short of a full blown waste. I Burned through 10M–15M tokens just getting it to fix basic issues.”
