You built it with Bolt. Now show a client, and see what they did. Roomi gives each client a link of their own, with nothing to sign up for, and records what each one did.

## What sharing from Bolt gives you today

Each line about Bolt is from its maker’s own pages, read on 12 October 2026. Each source is listed at the foot of the page.

|  | Bolt | Roomi (ours) |
|---|---|---|
| Kept to the people you choose | Partly: Bolt publishes a project free at a public bolt.host address. A private site, open only to your team and people you invite, needs a paid plan. | Yes: A private link for each person on Pro, with their name on it. Expire or revoke any one. |
| Shares the project without an account | No: A Bolt share link can be view-only, and whoever opens it needs a Bolt account and must be signed in. Viewers see the preview and the code but cannot change them. | Yes: They open their link and they’re in, with nothing to sign up for. |
| Who looked, and what each did | Partly: On a paid plan, Bolt’s hosting analytics show unique visitors, page views, top pages and traffic sources for a published site. They include visits from crawlers and bots. | Yes: Each person by name: every visit, click and minute, how far they took the tour, and who they passed it to. |

Bolt and Roomi, side by side. What Bolt does is from its own pages, read on 12 October 2026. Roomi is ours.

What the marks mean: “Partly” means partly, or with conditions; “Not listed” means not on their own pages.

## The Roomi way, from your Bolt project’s code

Six commands, run by you or by your coding agent. Nothing goes live until you commit.

1. **Describe the demo, then rehearse it** — Work in a folder holding your Bolt project’s code, on your own computer. The CLI’s first command describes the demo and leaves a guide written for your coding agent, so Claude Code or Cursor can run the rest. Deploy rehearses: it builds, checks for secrets and shows what would go live. Nothing has left your computer.
2. **Put it live** — Deploy again with commit, and the room is live. A new build can go to a preview first, for you to check before any viewer sees it. If a change goes wrong, roll back to the last good build. Each build keeps its log, for when one fails.
3. **Make a link for each person** — On Pro, make a private link for each client, with their name on it. Send it yourself, by email or however you usually reach them. Roomi sends nothing. When you send it, tell them who you are and that Roomi records what they do in the room for you. Our terms ask you to.
4. **See who looked, and what held them** — Each person’s visits in order, the screens they stayed on, how far they took the tour, and who they passed it to.
5. **Follow up while they’re still thinking about you** — Each viewer answers “What happens next?”: a meeting, a yes, later, a colleague, a question, or not for them. Roomi ranks who to call first. Ask your own Claude to draft a follow-up from what they did. Nothing is sent until you send it.

$ npm install -g @getroomi/cli

$ roomi deploy
$ roomi deploy --commit
$ roomi link "Priya Shah"

## Ways to share a Bolt app with a client, ranked

Ranked for one job: a client trying the real thing, and you knowing what they did. Roomi is ours.

1. **Roomi** (ours) — your own build, running, at a private link for each person, with nothing to sign up for. You see every visit, click and minute, by name.
2. **Bolt’s published site** — Bolt publishes a project free at a public bolt.host address. A private site, open only to your team and people you invite, needs a paid plan.
3. **A Bolt share link** — A Bolt share link can be view-only, and whoever opens it needs a Bolt account and must be signed in. Viewers see the preview and the code but cannot change them.
4. **A screen recording** — easy to send, but they watch you use it rather than try it. Loom names a viewer only when they watch while logged in to Loom. Anyone else shows as an anonymous view.

## Questions

### Does a client need a Bolt account to see my project?

A Bolt share link can be view-only, and whoever opens it needs a Bolt account and must be signed in. Viewers see the preview and the code but cannot change them. Bolt publishes a project free at a public bolt.host address. A private site, open only to your team and people you invite, needs a paid plan.

### Does Bolt show me who visited?

On a paid plan, Bolt’s hosting analytics show unique visitors, page views, top pages and traffic sources for a published site. They include visits from crawlers and bots. Roomi shows each person by name, and what they did.

### Does my client need a Roomi account?

No. Their link takes them straight into the room, with nothing to sign up for. The link is their key, and it carries their name.

### What does Roomi cost?

Free costs nothing: static demos, listed on the community at one public address, with total views. A private link per person and everything each person did start on Pro, at £4 a month or £40 a year, before VAT.

### Do I have to tell a client their visit is recorded?

Yes. Before or when you send the link, tell each viewer who you are and how to reach you about their data. Tell them too that Roomi records what they do in the room and shows it to you. Our terms ask for both.

## Fair, and dated

Every claim about another product on this page is from that product’s own pages, each read on the day beside it, the oldest on 12 October 2026. Roomi is ours, and says so. If something here is out of date, tell us and we’ll fix it the same week.
