Our take
Pick Bolt if founders and front-end builders who want a first hosted app in the browser. Pick Softgen if founders who want a Next.js + Supabase app they can open in Cursor, not a locked preview. Skip Bolt if teams that cannot send prompts to StackBlitz, or engineers who need a desktop agent (Cursor) or a local repo. Skip Softgen if local-service owners who only need a brochure + booking page (Durable).
