 # Bolt
+Welcome to the **Bolt** open-source repository! This repo provides everything you need to start building **AI-powered software development tools** powered by StackBlitz’s **WebContainer API**. 
 
-Bolt is an AI assistant developed by StackBlitz. This package contains the UI interface for Bolt as well as the server components, built using [Remix Run](https://remix.run/).
+### Why Build with Bolt + WebContainer API
+By building with the Bolt + WebContainer API you can create browser-based applications that let users **prompt, run, edit, and deploy** full-stack web apps directly in the browser, without the need for virtual machines. With WebContainer API, you can build apps that give AI direct access and full control over a **Node.js server**, **filesystem**, **package manager** and **dev terminal** inside your users browser tab. This powerful combination allows you to create a new class of development tools that support all major javascript libraries and node packages right out of the box, all without remote environments or local installs.
+
+
+### What’s the Difference Between Bolt (This Repo) and [Bolt.new](https://bolt.new)?
+
+- **Bolt.new**: This is the **commercial product** from StackBlitz—a hosted, browser-based AI development tool that enables users to prompt, run, edit, and deploy full-stack web applications directly in the browser. Built on top of the [Bolt open-source repo](https://github.com/stackblitz/bolt) and powered by the StackBlitz **WebContainer API**, it offers non-technical users the ability to create production-grade apps using AI.
+
+- **Bolt (This Repo)**: This open-source repository provides the building blocks behind **Bolt.new**. This package contains the UI interface for Bolt as well as the server components, built using [Remix Run](https://remix.run/). By leveraging this repo and StackBlitz’s **WebContainer API**, you can create your own AI-powered development tools and full-stack applications that run entirely in the browser. This code allows you to customize and expand use cases, integrating AI and WebContainers into your own unique applications.
+
+The [WebContainer API](https://webcontainers.io) is free for personal and open source usage. If you're building an application for commercial usage, you can learn more about our [WebContainer API commercial usage pricing here](https://stackblitz.com/pricing#webcontainer-api).
