About Lovable

Lovable is an AI-powered app builder designed to close the gap between having an idea and having a real, working product, without requiring the user to learn to code or hand their vision to a developer. It generates full-stack applications from natural-language prompts and reached $20M ARR in just two months, reportedly the fastest in European startup history. Lovable's 2026 pricing bundles two layers: subscription credits for chat and edits, plus a separate usage-based bill for the Cloud and AI features a finished app calls at runtime, which can surprise buyers who expect a single flat price. The platform added SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and GDPR compliance to its 2026 pricing page for business buyers.
