we did a pros and cons video because so many tools so hard to figure out which one you should use. comment below your thoughts. oh and like/subscribe of course for more of this in your feed.
Literally the video I’ve been waiting for. Overwhelmed at how fast the apps keep coming out and paralysis of analysis is setting in on which one to invest time into.
@@GregIsenberg Side note: I have been inhaling your content lately and had to say thank you personally. A technical person wanting to career shift into a new technical space: AI and having major shiny object syndrome. This content has been invaluable. Much gratitude to you and the guests on your channel from PDX. :)
Hi Greg, I’ve been following your content for a while and really enjoy it. It’s amazing to see so many AI tools coming out to help build apps. However, with so many people creating things so quickly, I feel the real skill to master now is learning how to market them effectively-especially by using AI for content generation. I’d love to see you make videos about this topic. Keep up the great work!
so rare to find a genuinely unbiased comparison of AI platforms like this... and not just A vs. B, across 7 platforms, not to mention the clear diagrams - a class discussion and the final question around agents is gold... agentic has to be where these platforms are going... im relatively non-technical so id love to see the Lovables / Bolts / Tempos continue to build out their functionality
We’re nearly in production, built UI on Bolt. My non-technical co-founder built most of it, while I fixed a few issues. On the backend, I used Windsurf (better than Cursor, in my opinion). The UI just pulls data via API. One big drawback with Bolt is the lack of private GH repo support, so you have to manually copy/paste files if you want to use another editor. I’m thinking about trying Replit next.
Great episode as always guys 🔥I'm a dev and only pay for Cursor. However, I do use Bolt, Lovable, and v0's free tiers to generate my mockups/get my initial ideas started. Then I just cook in Cursor 🧑🏽🍳 That what's been working for me right now - definitely exciting times with all these AI Coding tools!
Complete novice using Cursor, took me 120 hours in last 2 weeks to get the core features build. Ton of principles, headaches and iterations further, I can say, use Cursor, but prepare your documentation well, and every time you start a composer chat, tell it to read the .cursorrules which refer to the documentation.
Have played with Lovable, Replit, V0 and cursor. Paid for them all and so far loveable is my favorite, mostly for it's integrations and I enjoy the design it provides without much prompting for that nice design. I've used cursor to create myself a few custom chrome extensions though, super easy and great for that since cursor wants local files that works well!
Micky Ras: "Just a random guy", you must be kidding, Greg! Again, an excellent episode, very useful for someone who is navigating from Ai to AI. Now, because I know my type (Technical who doesn't want to code, but have control, I have a clue.) Thank you Micky and Thank you Greg, that's a beauty. Thomas
Great vid guys. Appreciate the content. Only thing I'd add is the user count, as that might imply which one is ahead, or less likely to go away. Also notable apps that have been made with each, and how much they make to see what's possible (e.g. cursor for cal AI and rizz ai) But we can figure that out with Google 🙂
I’ve used all extensively to figure out strengths and weaknesses and have spent a couple of grand testing them all too. Most have specific things they are good at so I use a blend. Pythagora (huge omission as it’s a more reliable lovable/bolt right in your IDE), roo-cline, continue and cursor are the four I actually use to get things done. Pythagora takes first pass at project setup (if the service needs a front end) then Cursor takes over to tweak, add details, fancier styling etc. Cursor is the main workhorse as it’s cheapest and fairly reliable. Continue is there when Cursor needs a second opinion as it is probably most reliable, but it’s not agentic. Roo-Cline eats credits and can be chaotic but its proficiency at using tools can be helpful for research and deployments, switching between architect and coder is helpful. I also bounce between models: Claude Sonnet and Deepseek Chat/R1 for different things too. Quick comment so probably not that helpful lol.
Here is how i using bolt and lovable design output and checking all right prompt was used by both and fixed. Then downloaded code project the work on Crusor and add a right prompt was made by bolt and lovable on crusor work perfectly 😅
I’m non technical and I pay for loveable and windsurf, when out of monthly and daily messages on loveable, I clone my repository and go to windsurf to keep the progress rolling.
This was a great rundown. Thank you for alleviating analysis paralysis that I am experiencing with the release of new tools. I’m curious for you to take on Satya Nadella’s claims of the end of SaaS.
Extra question, maybe more addressed to Micky. When I use the free tiers of any of these models for a single project, is it possible to switch to the next free tiers to advance on the same project?
hey thomas, it really depends on the platform but you would need to see if they have a github integration (i think most of them do) and you'd have to use your github repo as a starting point on the next tool
i don't think one tool is better than the other at SEO. It's a matter of what framework do they use when deploying the web app. If Nextjs then should be solid

Cursor is the one I always tend to go back after trying all of them.
Same
Have you tried windsurf?
I've been needing this video! Thanks for uploading with such perfect timing

makes sense :)
This is a great strategy, as I learn more about coding and deployment I'd like to get to this stage!

Helpful
Right video at the right time, was just getting started with Cursor
love when that happens

YaaaaaY, thanks Greg. Perfect topic, perfect timing. From my point of view - Cursor + Windsurf top top, Replit, Bolt, Lovable, v0 in this order 😮😮
I use windsurf and as a technical guy, I’m loving it!
Great vid guys. Appreciate the content.

My comment disappeared but I saw your reply! Happy you made the connection 🧠
yesss i love comments!

7:53 good advice, learning the tool now to get ahead of the curve
I’m non technical and I pay for loveable and windsurf, when out of monthly and daily messages on loveable, I clone my repository and go to windsurf to keep the progress rolling.
Cursor beats all, Currently building a full stack mobile app with it that I'm planning on actually launching and its been the most stable.
I've used Replit and Bolt. I prefer Replit and this is the only app I've been able to get a working app out of it.
I have a link to my almost ready deployed app on Replit.
I really like this guy (Mic) 😊😊 He makes everything so easy
he's the best
11:24 🤔 Replit not on the list here
i forgot to put it on the list
This was a great rundown. Thank you for alleviating analysis paralysis that I am experiencing with the release of new tools. I’m curious for you to take on Satya Nadella’s claims of the end of SaaS.
What about cline, roo cline, continue and aider?
What tool is being used to present?
I wants to build a Android App but I can't pay monthly. I want to use for free. Please suggest me🙏
Extra question, maybe more addressed to Micky.
When I use the free tiers of any of these models for a single project, is it possible to switch to the next free tiers to advance on the same project?
hey thomas,
it really depends on the platform but you would need to see if they have a github integration (i think most of them do) and you'd have to use your github repo as a starting point on the next tool
@@rasmic Thank you for your reply. It helps. Talk to you soon ;-)
i'm using Cursor integrated with cline and deepseek. have two ai chat tools inside of one IDE
If bubble is no code, and can build full SAAS. Where’s does it compare with these other? Just no AI to speed up the kick off?
Start with v0 or bolt, move to codium to complete it
Great sippage here
its sippage time bb
Love this!!
Which tool is best for SEO purposes? For example if I decided to create a directory
i don't think one tool is better than the other at SEO. It's a matter of what framework do they use when deploying the web app. If Nextjs then should be solid
Let’s gooooooo needed this
Windsurf ❤
nice one
Cursor >>>>
