Interface
Our assessment in one line
Still the most capable platform here, still the hardest to leave. Bubble wins the integrations axis outright at 4.5 because thirteen years of plugins and a large contractor market genuinely solve problems the AI-native tools cannot. The costs are real: no code export at all, the weakest performance profile in the index at 3.0 on speed, workload pricing that surprises people in month three, and an AI assistant that is the least convincing part of the product. Choose it deliberately, with an exit you have accepted you do not have.
