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. We make money from affiliate links, but they never change a score or a ranking — and any tool with no affiliate program is treated exactly the same. 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. Our numerical scores and written verdicts come from a real 30-day test and publish only when that testing is complete. Until then a tool is clearly marked “in progress” rather than given a made-up number.
