Build it once. Start from it every time.

Here's something nobody talks about: the most expensive thing in software isn't building. It's rebuilding.

That dashboard you set up last month? You're setting it up again. The settings page your teammate built for a client project? They're building it from scratch for the next one. That auth flow you nailed three weeks ago? Gone. Starting over.

Not because the work was bad. Because there was no way to keep it.

Every new project in Bolt starts blank. And every time you start blank, you're paying a tax, in time, in consistency, in all the small decisions you've already made once and now have to make again.

We call it the rebuild tax. And today, it's gone thanks to Bolt Team Templates.

Team Templates are shared, reusable starting points your whole team builds from.

Create a template from any project. Lock the foundation; the structure, the patterns, the decisions you've already made. Then let anyone on your team start from it, every time, without drifting from what works.

This is different from duplicating a project. Duplicates drift. The moment someone changes a duplicate, it starts diverging. Two weeks later, you've got five versions of the same thing and none of them match.

Template stays locked. Your team builds on top of it, not away from it. Same starting line, every time, for everyone.

What this actually looks like:

• An agency builds a client dashboard template. Every new client project starts from the same proven foundation; not from whatever the last project looked like.

• A startup standardizes their settings page, their blog layout, their onboarding flow. New teammates don't guess. They start from the thing that already works.

• A founder builds a product page pattern they love. Every variation starts from that pattern; not from a blank screen and a vague memory of what worked before.

Templates turn the work you've already done into the starting line for everything that comes next.

Why this matters more than it sounds.

Starting from blank isn't just slow. It's a compounding problem.

When every project resets to zero, your team never gets faster. The tenth project takes as long as the first. Knowledge lives in one person's head. Onboarding a new teammate means explaining everything from scratch; or worse, watching them reinvent what already exists.

Templates flip that. Your best work becomes shared infrastructure. Progress compounds instead of resetting. New people start fast because the foundation is already there.

One template. Used by your whole team.

How it works

• Log in to Bolt with your Teams account and open the project you want to reuse.

• Click the project title, then Save as team template (give it a name your team will actually recognize).

• Click Save new team template.

• Your team can now find it on the homepage. Anyone on your Teams plan clicks Team template and it's right there.

Team Templates are live today for all Teams plans.

If you're on a Teams plan: go create your first template. Pick your best project, the one you keep wishing you could reuse, and make it the starting point for everything.

If you've been building solo on Pro: this is what Teams unlocks. Your work stops living in your head and starts working for everyone. Upgrade to Teams and turn what you've built into something that multiplies.

If you're new to Bolt: there's never been a better time to start. Team Templates are just the beginning of what collaboration on Bolt looks like.

Build it once. Start from it every time.
