v0 opens a pull request for every change. MakeThemCode only when needed.
Both let non-tech collaborators change an existing repository by chat. With MakeThemCode, developers choose what goes straight in and what needs a review.
Side by side
Starting point
v0:A new app, or a GitHub repository imported into a v0 chat.
MakeThemCode:Your GitHub repository, with a new branch for each session.
Every change
v0:Goes to a branch, then a pull request.
MakeThemCode:Goes straight to your branch, or opens a pull request when a review is needed.
Developer rules
v0:GitHub's branch protections.
MakeThemCode:Rules on every file, instructions for the assistant and spending limits per member.
Preview
v0:A live dev server in a Vercel sandbox, next to the chat. For Next.js, Vite and Node.js projects.
MakeThemCode:Your own dev server, live in a cloud sandbox next to the chat. Any web app that runs in Docker.
Pricing
v0:Monthly plans with credits.
MakeThemCode:Pay as you go, based on tokens. No subscription.
Which one should you pick?
They don't really compete: each one is great at something different.
Pick v0 if
your website runs on Vercel and your team is fine with a pull request for every change.
Pick MakeThemCode if
your collaborators are not developers, small changes should go straight in, or your website doesn't run on Vercel.
Try it on your own website.
You'll see why it's better.
