What it is

Lovable is an AI app builder: you describe what you want and it generates a working web app, which you can sync to GitHub and keep building. It is used while you build, not while the app runs, so it adds to your costs only while you are actively using it.

Good for

Getting a first version on screen quickly
Founders who want to start from a prompt rather than a blank editor
