Introduction
Recently, a new wave of artificial intelligence has been transforming the way we build websites and applications. Among these tools, Lovable stands out due to its simple yet powerful concept: you describe what you want, and the AI generates an entire application — including design, database, and functionalities.
What is Lovable?
Lovable is an AI tool that generates real, fully functional applications from text-based instructions. For example:
“Create a customer registration system with login, a dashboard, and export to Excel.”
The AI interprets the request, designs the layout, writes the code, configures the database, and delivers a working application. After that, you can make visual edits or manually adjust the code.
For users who do not have a custom domain or do not know how to publish a website, the platform allows hosting using a Lovable subdomain, such as www.yoursite.lovable.app. In other words, if you having a good idea, expressing it clearly in natural language, and publishing it on the web can all be done in a matter of minutes, with a very practical result.
Of course, having knowledge of programming logic and security best practices is an advantage during development, and can help save credits.
It is worth noting that you definitely won’t build something extremely complex, since that requires a larger technical team and multiple professional workflows. However, for validating an MVP that would normally take weeks, Lovable is perfectly applicable — especially because the source code can be exported and integrated with other platforms.
When did Lovable emerge?
According to a Forbes article titled “Vibe Coding Turned This Swedish AI Unicorn Into The Fastest Growing Software Startup Ever,” Lovable was founded in 2023 in Sweden.
By 2024, the company had begun to gain global visibility, experiencing rapid growth and a large number of users.
Who created it?
The founders of Lovable are:
Both had already been involved in AI projects and development tools prior to creating Lovable.
Main Features of Lovable:
- Creates complete websites and applications using only natural language text.
- Generates real, production-ready code that can be exported to GitHub.
- Allows editing both visually and through direct code access.
- Integrates with APIs, Supabase, databases, and authentication services.
- Enables fast deployment and publication on a custom domain.
- Works as a no-code/low-code platform, without restricting users who know how to program.
Positive points based on my tests
-
Impressive speedPrototyping a system that would take days or weeks can be done in just a few minutes.
-
Accessible for non-developersYou only need to describe your idea. It is perfect for teachers, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and professionals from any field.
-
Exportable codeUnlike many no-code platforms, you can download the source code and edit it freely.
-
Important integrationsLogin, databases, forms, dashboards, and APIs can be connected easily.
-
Affordable costIt offers a free plan for testing and professional plans for advanced usage. Personally, I have built — and continue to build — a lot using the free plan.

Landing pages and institutional websites
-
Applications for local businesses
-
Internal tools for teams
-
Dashboards and automations
-
Learning platforms and quizzes
My personal considerations
If you want to create something quickly, test ideas, build MVPs, study technology, or launch a digital product, Lovable is a very strong tool. However, it is worth comparing it with other platforms—such as Manus—before making a final decision, in order to see which one best fits your needs.
It does not replace a full development team for complex projects, but it significantly speeds up the path from an idea to a working solution.
Conclusion
Lovable represents an important step in the democratization of technology.
With it, anyone can transform ideas into working systems — quickly, visually, and at a low cost.
If you are interested in innovation and artificial intelligence, this is a platform worth following closely.
