Questions
- What is AI Coding Hub?
- An independent guide to AI coding and vibe coding tools. We compare tools like Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Lovable and Bolt on the facts, match them to your workflow with a stack picker, and add hands-on scores from our own testing. We are not the official marketing for any tool.
- How do you stay neutral?
- We test with real accounts on our own projects and say who each tool is not for. The site carries no affiliate links at all right now — every vendor link is the vendor’s own homepage with rel="nofollow noopener" and earns us nothing — and nobody pays for placement. If we ever add an affiliate link it will be marked rel="sponsored" and it still would not change a score or a ranking. See How We Test and our affiliate disclosure.
- Are your scores live yet?
- The factual comparisons — pricing, models, form factor, MCP support and who each tool is for — are live now. Numerical scores come only from tools we have installed and used on our own repositories, and each scored tool shows the date it was last tested. A tool we have not put through that is clearly marked “in progress” rather than given a made-up number.
