Claude Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Sol have arrived!
Claude Code now starts on Claude Opus 5.5 and Codex now starts on GPT-6 Sol, both more capable and cheaper to run than the models they replace. Also new: GPT-6 Luna, browser controls in previews, better project import, and fixes for custom domains, Supabase publishing, and Claude Code.

Import Any App To Draftbit, Hono API Backends & D1, Create New Project Wizard, GPT-6 Astra & Claude Fable 5.1, 200+ Templates, Supabase Upgrades, Expo 55 + more!
You can now import any existing JavaScript or TypeScript based project via GitHub repo or project zip and keep building it in Draftbit. We've also added a new type of app: Hono API backends paired with Cloudflare D1 databases or connected to your own existing Postgres. We have new ways to create projects and apps as well as the latest models including GPT-6 Astra and Claude Fable 5.1, and we've added more than 200 starting point templates to use for your next project to save you time and inference, plus a whole lot more.

GPT-5.6, Grok 4.5, Organization-wide AI Providers, Free Plan Model Choice, Native File Uploads + more!
GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna join Draftbit alongside Grok 4.5, and Claude Code can now be used with active OpenRouter-native models. Organizations can connect Claude and ChatGPT subscriptions plus OpenAI, Anthropic, and OpenRouter API keys once and share them across every app. Free-plan users on Draftbit Credits can choose any supported OpenAI Codex model instead of being locked to GPT-5.4. Plus the Add Component panel, native file uploads, code-editor downloads, and more reliable planning, projects, sandboxes, and docs.

Projects, Websites, Billing Plan Changes, Revamped Dashboard, Version History, Docs Updates + more!
Projects now have dashboards, settings, activity, project-level assets, tasks, MCPs, and Supabase connections. Website apps are open to all users. Billing plans now use clearer Base naming, BYOK availability is easier to understand, and free plans get a simpler 5,000-credit starting grant. The dashboard has a new collapsible left sidebar. Version History has been redesigned with paginated commit history. Docs now live at docs.draftbit.com. Plus AI chat search, SSH gateway improvements, safer uploads, sandbox reliability fixes, model updates, and more.

New Tasks Board, Earn Free Credits + more!
Tasks are now available to everyone — track, organize, delegate, and start work from a shared task board inside the Builder. Earn Credits is fully rolled out so you can submit challenges and claim rewards from a new Earn tab. Plus GPT-5.5 is the new Codex default, Cloudflare and HighLevel join MCP integrations, billing upgrades reset cleanly with itemized credit breakdowns, and saves are more reliable under concurrent edits.

Opus 4.7, Web Apps in Beta + more!
Claude Opus 4.7 is here with sharper multi-step reasoning and more reliable tool use inside the sandbox. Web Apps are now in beta on a brand-new stack — React 19, Vite 6, Tailwind v4, React Router v7, and shadcn/ui. Plus a polished agent and model selector, a more resilient preview server, a faster code editor, and a long list of reliability fixes across publishing, assets, and Git.
Dave Sebek
Public Share Pages, Publish From Staging + more!
You can now create a public share page for any app — no sign-in required for viewers. iOS and Android publishing now works from the staging environment. Sandbox resources scale by billing tier, syntax errors get caught before saving, and the editor and mobile builder got a round of polish.
Dave Sebek
Smarter Code Editor, Faster Startup + more!
The code editor now has full TypeScript autocomplete and hover types. Theme color pickers pull from your actual theme files. And sandbox startup is dramatically faster thanks to a new prewarming system.
Dave SebekOpus 4.6, Tons of improvements, and Building From Your Couch 🛋️
Claude Opus 4.6 is here, along with a unified model selector, improved mobile-responsive builder, full billing plans with credit bundle discounts, and conditional components for more dynamic UIs. Plus, we've improved thread summaries, message copying, and styling controls to make building even smoother.

Dave SebekWhat's New For October 2025
We've been hard at work the last few weeks fixing bugs and improving stability for folks coming into the beta, and now that we've worked through most of those issues we're turning our attention to adding more visual editing features and better integrations with external services.
