Lovable is an AI app builder. You describe a website in plain language, and it writes the code, shows a live preview, and publishes it for you.
It can:
Build a full multi-section website from one prompt
Edit pages through chat
Let you click and change elements visually
Add forms and a database through Lovable Cloud
Publish to a lovable.app address
Connect a custom domain on paid plans
Ten minutes gets you a real first version. Great websites still need your content and judgment.
02
Plans and credits
Free
A small daily credit allowance, enough to try a simple site
Pro
From $25 a month, with more credits, custom domains, and no Lovable badge
Business
Team features such as SSO and data training opt-out
Each message uses credits, and bigger changes cost more. Check Lovable’s pricing page for current details.
03
Prepare before you start
Have this ready, and the 10 minutes is realistic:
What the site is for
Your sections: hero, about, services, testimonials, contact
Your real text, or bullet points
Brand colors and fonts
Logo and photos you own
One example site you like
04
Write a strong first prompt
Build a website for “Bright Paws”, a dog grooming studio in Austin. Sections: hero with a booking button, three services with prices, about us, three testimonials, opening hours, and a contact form. Style: friendly, clean, mobile first. Colors: teal #0F766E and cream #FFF7ED. Font: a rounded sans-serif. Use placeholder images I can replace.
A complete first prompt saves credits and time.

Edit with chat
“Make the hero headline shorter and bigger.”
“Move testimonials above the about section.”
“Add a sticky header with a Book Now button.”
“Use more white space between sections.”
Ask for one change at a time so each edit stays small and cheap.
07
Use visual edits
Click an element in the preview to change text, colors, and spacing directly. Small visual edits are faster than describing them in chat.
08

Ask Lovable to save form submissions using Lovable Cloud, or to send them to your email tool. Submit a test entry and confirm it arrives.
Collect only the information you need, and add a privacy policy if you collect personal data.
