Deliverd compared with Bolt

Bolt hosts it in a minute.
Private means invited into Bolt.

Bolt builds the prototype and hosts it without a third-party account, which is exactly what a prototype needs. The question changes when the prototype becomes the deliverable: a client who is not in your Bolt team, a version they signed off on, and a record of who opened what.

What Bolt does well

Hosting with nothing to set up

Open the Publish menu and Bolt deploys the project to a .bolt.host address in about a minute, on every plan. No hosting account, no pipeline.

Public or private, at publish time

A published site can be visible to everyone, or only to your team and the people you invite. Share, rather than Publish, gives a hosted prototype with control over who can open the link.

Your own domain, or Netlify

On a paid plan, connect a domain you own or buy one through Bolt. If you would rather host on Netlify, that is a supported alternative with its own live address.

The boundary

Where it stops

  • Private is your team and your invitees

    A private site is open to your team and the people you invite. Each reader is someone you bring into Bolt, and the client's whole finance function is a list of invitations to manage.

  • The address serves the latest publish

    Publishing puts the current project on the live address. The version a client approved last month is whatever the project was at the time, not an address you can send them back to.

  • A prototype's hosting

    Bolt hosts what you built and decides who may open it. Which reader opened it, when, and what changed between two publishes are questions about a deliverable, and a prototype host is not where they get answered.

Every point above was read from Bolt's publishing documentation on 10 September 2026. Products change; if something here is out of date, tell us and we will correct it.

Where Deliverd fits

What you get instead

Readers you name, who need no account

A person, a workspace, a directory group, an email domain or a verified guest who confirms a one-time code. They sign in with their own identity provider or verify a code sent to their email; the account is yours.

Every version kept at one address

Publishing again updates the same URL and keeps what was there. Compare, roll back, or pin the report to the version the client signed off on.

Sign-off before it goes out

A publishing rule can hold a version for a partner's approval. The client sees nothing until someone with the authority says so, and the decision is on the record.

A record of who opened it

Views, versions, access changes and share links in an audit trail you can export.

Straight from the build

Download the project, build it, and publish the output folder with one CLI command. Root-absolute asset paths are rewritten at publish time, so a Vite build renders as built.

Questions.

  • Can I keep prototyping in Bolt and publish the result here?

    Yes. Export the project, build it, and publish the folder with the CLI or the REST API. Bolt stays your editor; Deliverd is where the client opens the result.

  • Does a Bolt app with a backend work?

    Only the static output does. Deliverd serves HTML, CSS, JavaScript and assets from an isolated origin with no server of yours behind it. A report that reads its data from a Deliverd dataset works; an app that needs its own backend belongs on Bolt's hosting.

  • Is the published page still interactive?

    Yes. Scripts, styles, charts and tabs keep working, and libraries loaded from a public CDN are fetched and inlined at publish time.

  • Can the client comment on it?

    Yes. A reader selects a passage and comments on it. Your agent can read the threads, fix what they point at, and mark them resolved.
