Lovable

Chat-based AI builder for websites and web apps

Last verified DocumentedBased on official sources; we have not tested this tool ourselves.

At a glance

Lovable is a chat-based AI app builder. The vendor describes it as an AI software engineer that builds websites and web apps from plain-language prompts, with hosting, a backend (Lovable Cloud) and team workspaces on a credit-based plan.

Best for

Founders, product teams and non-developers that want to describe a website or web app in chat and get a hosted result, and that can work within a credit balance.

Not for

Not a fit if you need a fixed monthly price independent of usage, or per-seat pricing: plans are priced by included credits, and building and running apps both draw on credits.

Which data does Lovable access or keep?

Contracts with third-party AI providers restrict training and retention of customer data. Lovable Cloud offers regional hosting in the EU, US and Asia Pacific, and data does not move across regions by default. On compliance the page says Lovable "supports SOC 2 and GDPR requirements"; it does not state a certification in that sentence, so verify through the trust center.
Can I use Lovable and its outputs commercially?
