What it does

Connect Runtype to Bolt and go from generated app to AI-powered product — with agents, structured flows, and multi-surface deployment.

Use cases

What you can build

AI meets rapid prototyping

Bolt generates the app. Runtype adds the intelligence. Ship both fast.

Beyond chat wrappers

Get structured flows, tool calls, and multi-step reasoning — not just a chat widget.

Multi-surface ready

Deploy the same AI to web, Slack, email, and API from one agent.

Production credentials

Protected parameters keep API keys safe. No secrets in the frontend.

How it works

Three steps to ship

1

Add the connector

In Bolt, go to + > Connectors > Custom MCP Server. Paste the URL.

2

Ask Bolt to add AI

Describe the AI feature. Bolt calls Runtype to build it.

3

Ship the full app

Your app now has a production AI backend. Deploy it.

Quick start

Get started in three steps.

Four ways in — pick the one that matches where you already work.

Install

Add the MCP server

Runtype ships as a hosted MCP server. Install it in any AI-native tool — from coding assistants to web chat, to app builders.

MCP URL

Paste in Bolt → + → Connectors → Custom MCP Server.

Authenticate

Sign in

Your tool opens a browser window to authenticate with Runtype via OAuth. No API key to copy — the MCP server handles auth for you.

Build

Start creating

Ask your AI agent to build an AI feature. It creates the agent, wires the flows, configures the surfaces — and returns embed code.
