--- title: v0 vs Bolt description: A source-backed comparison of v0 and Bolt. product: v0 type: overview --- # v0 vs Bolt *Last reviewed: July 28, 2026 ยท Owner: v0 Docs* v0 and Bolt both generate full-stack web projects and connect to GitHub. They differ in their default runtime, hosting model, and the deployment and collaboration tools surrounding the generated code. ## At a glance | Area | v0 | Bolt | | --------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Full-stack development** | Builds [full-stack applications](/docs/full-stack-apps) with frontend code, server logic, API endpoints, and database integrations. | Builds full-stack web applications in a browser-based environment and supports a [built-in database](https://support.bolt.new/cloud/database) with authentication and server functions. | | **Backend choices** | Supports Marketplace integrations and custom code for Supabase, Neon, Upstash, Vercel services, and other providers. | Uses Bolt Database by default for newer projects and also supports [Supabase](https://support.bolt.new/integrations/supabase) for databases, authentication, and edge functions. | | **GitHub workflow** | Creates chat-specific working branches, commits generated changes, and opens pull requests against a selected base branch. See [GitHub](/docs/github). | Can import or create repositories, create and switch branches, commit working changes automatically, and fetch external updates. Branches are [merged in GitHub](https://support.bolt.new/integrations/git), not inside Bolt. | | **Hosting** | Publishes to Vercel with preview and production deployments, custom domains, and framework-aware server runtimes. See [Deployments](/docs/deployments). | Includes [built-in hosting](https://support.bolt.new/cloud/hosting) for Free and Pro users on a `.bolt.host` domain. Free hosting currently includes 10 GB bandwidth and 333,333 requests per month with a hard cap and a Made in Bolt badge. | | **Security and compliance** | Vercel documents SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001:2022, GDPR support, and PCI DSS attestations in its [security and compliance guide](https://vercel.com/docs/security/compliance). | Bolt's [Trust Center](https://trust.bolt.new/) lists SOC 2 Type 2, GDPR, and CCPA and describes browser-level isolation and encryption controls. | | **Deployment operations** | Vercel provides deployment logs, analytics, observability, rollbacks, preview environments, and production controls. | Bolt Cloud provides publishing and hosting analytics. Free sites stop serving traffic after the account-level monthly hosting cap is reached and resume when usage resets. | ## Official sources reviewed * v0: [Full-stack apps](/docs/full-stack-apps), [GitHub](/docs/github), [Deployments](/docs/deployments), and [Vercel security and compliance](https://vercel.com/docs/security/compliance) * Bolt: [Hosting](https://support.bolt.new/cloud/hosting), [hosting plans](https://support.bolt.new/cloud/hosting/plans), [GitHub integration](https://support.bolt.new/integrations/git), [Supabase integration](https://support.bolt.new/integrations/supabase), and [Trust Center](https://trust.bolt.new/) ## Ready to build?
