About Lovable
Lovable lets users describe a web application in natural language and generates working, full-stack code for it, aimed at founders, designers and developers who want to go from idea to a working prototype quickly without manually writing the initial codebase.
Usage is metered through a credit system: the free tier includes a small daily credit allowance suitable for building and iterating on small applications, while paid plans provide a much larger monthly credit pool.
Additional credits can be purchased on top of any plan for projects that need more than the plan's included allowance, and students have historically been offered a discount on the Pro plan.
