Who this is for

Dola AI (DolaAI, dolaai.pro) is a local-first Unreal Engine assistant: the Dola desktop app (Windows and Linux) plus an Unreal Editor plugin for Blueprints and C++. Modeling is a separate Babylon studio, not the Unreal viewport.

If you ship Unreal projects and you are tired of an AI that only sees a pasted snippet, it is aimed at you. A desktop app plus an Editor plugin — not a new general-purpose IDE.

Other products named Dola

No. Other apps, services, and research projects also use the name Dola. Dola AI at dolaai.pro is a separate product for Unreal Engine: a desktop app and an Editor plugin, with its own accounts.

No. A Dola AI account at dolaai.pro only covers the Unreal Engine assistant. Logins, subscriptions, and account deletion for other apps named Dola are handled by those apps’ own support.

What it does today

With the plugin connected, agents can edit Blueprints, run editor actions, look up Engine APIs, search local project knowledge, and change C++ source files. Chats and indexes are designed to stay on your machine. Agent inference still leaves the box: it goes through dolaai.pro to the Dola backend, which runs Claude.

Sign-up is free. Running agents uses AI credits; monthly plans grant them after payment. None of that is hidden behind this post — see getting started and plans and credits.

What we are not claiming

Dola does not “understand the entire project” as a guarantee. It indexes and searches what it has, and it drives the open editor when the bridge is up. It is not a drop-in Cursor replacement for every repo. That comparison, without fake wins, is Cursor alternative for Unreal Engine.

The longer product page is AI coding assistant for Unreal Engine. The full overview, including other products named Dola, is What is Dola AI?.
