Shortlist · Lovable alternatives

Lovable alternatives: match the tool to why you’re leaving.

Lovable’s built-in payments need a paid plan, its hosting spends your credits past a 20-credit grant, and it can train on Free and Pro content unless each person opts out. DoAny sells on its $0 Free plan.

The cheapest plan that can take payments

Each tool’s cheapest plan whose own payments setup can take live card payments. Every price comes from the pages cited in this article.

With checkout set up for you, DoAny Free costs $0 over 12 months, the lowest of the five priced. Lovable Pro costs $300.

LowestDoAny Free$0over 12 months$0 a month + 0% of sales; Stripe’s fees apply
Lovable Pro$300over 12 months$25 a month + 0% of sales

Base44 Builder$600over 12 months$50 a month
v0 + Vercel Pro$240over 12 months$0 for v0 + $20 a month for Vercel

Stripe’s card fees apply on every option that takes payments through Stripe.

Totals use monthly billing, and “Lowest” is on that basis. Paid yearly, Lovable Pro is $250 a year, Replit Core $18 a month and Base44 Builder $40 a month. DoAny bills monthly only.
DoAny Free sites use the included yourname.doany.site address; a domain you own needs DoAny Pro, from $25 a month.
Bolt isn’t priced: its Stripe integration works on every plan, Free included, but needs a Stripe secret key you create and paste in. Lovable Free works the same way. Turn on “Count setups with a pasted key” to price both.
Replit’s Stripe integration is on Core and Pro only, not the free Starter plan; publishing comes out of Core’s monthly credits, Autoscale from $2 a month plus usage. Base44 offers Stripe on Builder and above.
v0 Free deploys to Vercel and adds Stripe from the Vercel Marketplace, but Vercel’s Hobby plan is for non-commercial, personal use only, so a site that sells needs Vercel Pro at $20 per seat a month, billed apart from v0. v0 Free includes $5 of monthly credits and 7 messages a day.
Stripe’s processing fees apply on every option here and are left out. Lovable Pro’s built-in payments can also use Paddle, at 5% + 50¢ a sale as merchant of record.
Plan prices only: credits, tokens and usage are billed differently on each tool, so they aren’t compared.

The documented reasons

Why founders look beyond Lovable

Lovable is a strong, widely used product. The reasons to shop around in 2026 are specific, and all of them are in Lovable’s own pricing, docs and changelog.

Sep 9

Since September 9, 2026, Lovable may train on Free and Pro content unless each person opts out. Business is excluded by default. Lovable training opt-out.

20 credits

The monthly Cloud grant, labeled temporary. Past it, hosting and backend usage come out of the credits you build with. Lovable credits docs.

$0.50

Per credit on Business ($50 for 100 credits), twice Pro’s rate, for the tier with SSO (Lovable pricing) and training off by default (Lovable training opt-out).

10 fixes

Free fixes per account since August 11, 2026. Each comes back 24 hours after use; past 10, a fix is billed like any message. Lovable changelog.

10 hours

How long one build message can run since August 26, 2026 (Lovable changelog). By default the run pauses for your go-ahead at every 20 credits, but that is “a notification threshold, not a hard cap”, and you can raise the level or turn it off (Lovable credits docs).

0 credits

At zero, built-in backend services pause shortly after, and their data can’t be accessed or exported until the services run again. Lovable credits docs.

Lovable and five alternatives compared by entry paid plan, hosting, best fit, key limitation and AI training default
Tool	Entry paid plan	Hosting	Best for	Key limitation	Training on your content
Lovable (baseline)	Pro $25 a month for 100 credits plus 5 a day (Lovable pricing)	From credits after a 20-credit monthly grant; the backend pauses at zero (Lovable credits docs)	Custom web apps with Git sync, connectors and team features	Built-in payments need a paid plan; Free connects your own Stripe account (Lovable payments docs)	Allowed on Free and Pro unless each person opts out; Business excluded by default (Lovable training opt-out)

Bolt	Pro $25 a month, from 10M tokens (Bolt pricing)	Included on Pro: 30 GB and 1M requests a month, then billed to a cap you set (Bolt hosting plans)	Existing JavaScript repos and Expo mobile apps	JavaScript-only backends (Bolt supported technologies)	From October 7, 2026 unless you opt out (no opt-out while Forge is on); EEA, UK and Swiss accounts excluded
Replit	Core $20 a month ($18 billed yearly); Replit pricing	Paid from credits: Autoscale from $2 a month plus usage, Reserved VM from $15 (Replit publishing costs)	Any language, hosting choices and hard budget caps	Its Lovable import leaves Supabase records and secrets behind (Replit import guide)	Pro: allowed unless you opt out in settings (Pro Agreement). Enterprise: ruled out (Enterprise agreement). Core: privacy policy, no opt-out
Base44	Starter $20 a month ($16 billed yearly); Base44 pricing	Backend, database and storage on every plan (Base44 pricing); built-in email, image and LLM calls spend integration credits (Base44 credits)	All-in-one apps plus Superagents for recurring work	GitHub sync from Builder at $50; unused credits expire (Base44 GitHub integration)	Allowed on every plan except Enterprise, with no opt-out setting (Base44 privacy and security)
v0	Plus $30 per user a month, shown discounted from $90 on September 25, 2026 (v0 pricing)	On a Vercel project (v0 deployments); Hobby is “non-commercial, personal use only”, Pro is $20 per developer seat a month	React apps deployed to Vercel, with visual Design Mode	Per-user pricing, with usage billed in dollars of model tokens	Opt-out is the default only from Business at $100 per user (v0 pricing)

Taking payments, plan by plan. Lovable’s built-in payments need Pro; on Free you paste your own Stripe API key instead (Lovable’s Stripe integration). On each alternative:

DoAny’s checkout works on Free, with no API keys to copy.
Bolt’s Stripe integration works on any plan, Free included, with a Stripe secret key you paste in, on any project with a Bolt or Supabase database (Bolt Stripe); Free lists “Unlimited databases” (Bolt pricing). Free sites carry a Made in Bolt badge and stop serving once they reach Free’s hard traffic limit, 10 GB of bandwidth and 333,333 requests a month, until the next cycle (Bolt hosting).
Replit’s Stripe integration is on Core and Pro only (Replit Stripe).
Base44 offers Stripe on Builder, $50 a month, and above (Base44 payments).
v0 adds Stripe from the Vercel Marketplace (v0 integrations), which sets the keys for you (Vercel’s Stripe integration), but a site that sells needs a paid Vercel plan, since Hobby is non-commercial.

One by one

Each Lovable alternative: best for, catch and price

Same three questions for each, DoAny included: what it’s for, the catch, and the price.

Company builder · our product
DoAny: best for non-technical founders who want the business run
Best for: a live business rather than an app to maintain. DoAny researches your idea and market first, builds a real web app with customer accounts, a database and Stripe checkout, and hosts it on its own yourname.doany.site address. After launch, Annie posts every day, finds customers and follows up, runs your CRM and answers customers around the clock. Payments go to your own Stripe account and DoAny takes 0% of your sales; Stripe’s own processing fees still apply. Its DoAny Terms rule out equity and revenue share.
Against Lovable: the same $25 for 100 credits plus 5 a day, but hosting uses no credits and the backend stays up at zero. Credits stop hard, with “no overage, no automatic recharge” (Run it solo). DoAny doesn’t train AI models on your data, and you can export code and data or sync to GitHub. DoAny’s Free plan can sell; Lovable’s built-in payments need a paid plan (Lovable payments). Bring your exported Lovable code and database records; DoAny imports them.
Watch out for: editing is by chat only, with no visual editor. No SSO and no connector marketplace; Annie connects other services by writing a backend function with your API key. The checkout on the sites DoAny builds is Stripe only at the moment, with no merchant of record, no sales-tax handling and no coupons or free trials. Those sites can’t connect an existing Stripe account yet. There’s no one-click rollback, though every version is saved. No yearly plan or credit rollover. Web only, with no native iOS or Android apps.
Price: Free has unlimited companies sharing 5 credits a day, up to 30 a month, with no card, and can go live and take real card payments with 0% of sales (Stripe’s fees still apply). Pro starts at $25 a month for 100 credits plus 5 daily, shared by every company, and adds unlimited team members, custom domains and top-ups at $15 per 50 (DoAny pricing). For the full side-by-side comparison, read DoAny vs Lovable.
02
Code-first builder
Bolt: best for an existing JavaScript repo or a mobile app
Best for: bringing code you already have. Bolt imports an existing GitHub repository by URL, which Lovable cannot do (Bolt GitHub), and turns projects into mobile apps with Expo (Bolt supported technologies).
Watch out for:
- Backends must be JavaScript; Bolt says PHP and Python aren’t compatible (Bolt supported technologies).
- On a simultaneous edit, Bolt “keeps your changes and overwrites the GitHub version”, branches are merged in GitHub, and a disconnected project can’t be reconnected manually; relinking it to the same repo goes through support (Bolt GitHub).
- Starting October 7, 2026, unless you opt out, StackBlitz, which makes Bolt, may use your prompts, code and outputs to train AI models and license de-identified datasets to third parties. The opt-out doesn’t cover Bolt Forge: turning Forge on is consent to that use (StackBlitz privacy policy), and Pro includes Forge until October 14 (Bolt pricing).
Price: Free gives 300K tokens a day and 1M a month. Pro is $25 a month starting at 10M tokens, with no daily limit and rollover of unused tokens; Teams is $30 per member (Bolt pricing). Token use grows with project size, because Bolt reads your files on each message (Bolt tokens).
Developer workspace
Replit: best for any language and firm spending limits
Best for: a full development workspace. Replit says it “supports all programming languages through integration with Nix” (Replit docs), offers budget limits it describes as hard caps (Replit AI billing), and has a documented Lovable import through GitHub.
Watch out for: that import leaves existing Supabase records and secrets behind (Replit import guide). Agent work is priced by effort, and publishing costs come out of your monthly credits: Autoscale from $2 a month plus usage, Reserved VMs from $15 a month, static sites free apart from data transfer (Replit publishing costs).
Price: Core is $20 a month, or $18 billed yearly. Pro is $100 a month, or $90 yearly (Replit pricing).
All-in-one app builder
Base44: best for an all-in-one builder with scheduled agents
Best for: building and automating in one place. Base44 is part of Wix, and every plan includes a backend, database, sign-in and a visual editor (Base44 pricing). Superagents run scheduled workflows or react to activity in connected tools (Base44 Superagents).
Watch out for: two-way GitHub sync needs Builder or higher and syncs only the main branch (Base44 GitHub integration). Unused monthly credits expire, and when integration credits run out, app actions that need them fail with an error your users see (Base44 credits). Superagents spend message credits, the same pool you build with. Data on every plan except Enterprise can be used to train AI models, with no opt-out setting (Base44 privacy and security).
Price: Free gives 25 message credits a month. Starter is $20 a month ($16 yearly) for 100 message credits; Builder is $50 ($40 yearly) for 250 (Base44 pricing).
React on Vercel
v0: best for React apps you deploy on Vercel
Best for: teams already on Vercel. Even the free plan deploys to Vercel, syncs with GitHub and includes Design Mode for visual edits (v0 pricing).
Watch out for: pricing is per user, and usage is billed in dollars of model tokens at rates that vary by model. Training opt-out is the default only from Business, at $100 per user a month (v0 pricing).
Price: Free includes $5 of monthly credits and 7 messages a day. Plus is $30 per user a month with $30 of credits each, shown discounted from $90 on September 25, 2026 (v0 pricing).

Decision rules

How to choose a Lovable alternative

Start from the reason you are leaving. Each row names the tool whose published features answer it.

Swipe to compare every column.

Which Lovable alternative to look at for each need, and why
If you	Look at	Because
Are non-technical and want the growth work done	DoAny	Annie researches, builds, posts, reaches out and answers customers, with the big calls on approval cards
Want hosting that never uses credits and a backend that stays up at zero	DoAny	Hosting is included; at zero credits only AI work pauses. Lovable and Replit bill hosting from credits; Bolt includes hosting up to plan limits (Bolt hosting)
Want built-in payments before you pay for a plan	DoAny	Go live works on Free, with 0% of sales and Stripe’s fees. Lovable’s built-in payments need a paid plan; on Free you connect your own Stripe account (Lovable payments)
Want your Lovable code and database records brought over	DoAny	DoAny imports your exported code and database records. Bolt and Replit import code from GitHub, and Replit’s Lovable import leaves existing Supabase records behind
Want your content out of training without a toggle	DoAny	DoAny doesn’t train on your data. Lovable excludes it by default only on Business ($50 a month) and v0 only on Business ($100 per user)
Have an existing JavaScript repo or want a mobile app	Bolt	It imports GitHub repositories, which Lovable can’t, and turns projects into mobile apps through Expo
Need Python or another language, or a hard spending cap	Replit	Bolt’s backends are JavaScript-only; Replit supports any language and offers budget limits it describes as hard caps
Want scheduled agents beside the app	Base44	Superagents run scheduled and triggered workflows
Deploy React apps on Vercel	v0	Vercel deploys and GitHub sync on every plan
Need sales tax and VAT handled for you	Stay on Lovable with Paddle	Paddle is merchant of record at 5% + 50¢ per sale (Lovable payments); checkout on the sites DoAny builds is Stripe only, with no sales-tax handling at the moment

Whichever you pick, check who can see the project

Lovable’s April 22, 2026 post-mortem says that from February 3 to April 20, 2026, chat history and source code of public projects could be viewed by any logged-in Lovable user with a project link. Private projects and Lovable Cloud were not affected. Lovable shipped a fix within two hours of the public report (Lovable’s incident response), and since April 22 it no longer offers public projects at all (Lovable project visibility).

The lesson applies to any builder: check who can open the editor and chat history, not only the live site.

The honest option

When staying with Lovable is the right call

Lovable is the scale player here: $500 million in annualized revenue by June 2026 and 60 million hosted projects, per TechCrunch. It syncs code two ways with three Git providers, lists a large Lovable connector catalog, lets you edit text on the preview, offers SSO on Business, bills Pro yearly at $250 (Lovable plans), and rolls unused credits over for a month. If those are what you use, a move costs you more than it gains.

If the training default is your only concern, the fix is one toggle per person: Account settings, AI model training, then turn off “Use my Lovable content for model training”. It applies going forward. If price is the concern, note that DoAny’s Pro ladder matches Lovable Pro tier for tier, from $25 to $2,250 a month, and DoAny’s Free plan can already take real payments. The difference is what the credits have to cover, which the DoAny vs Lovable comparison prices out line by line.

Switching notes

Leaving Lovable: what moves and what doesn’t

Export while your Lovable balance is above zero: a paused Cloud backend can’t be exported. This is what leaves, and where each piece can go.

Swipe to compare every column.

What leaves Lovable when you switch, and where each piece can go
What	Leaves Lovable?	Where it can go
Code	Yes: Git sync to GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket Cloud, or a zip on paid plans. Lovable Git sync	Bolt and Replit import from GitHub. DoAny imports your exported code, so you don’t start over
Database	Structure and data in one file of at most 5 GB, from databases up to 15 GB, once every 24 hours; password hashes included. Lovable database export	Only Supabase is a supported destination for the Cloud backend itself (Lovable ownership docs). Exported records can go elsewhere: DoAny imports them; Replit’s import leaves Supabase records behind (Replit import)
Storage files, functions, secrets, sign-in settings	Not in the export; each moves or is set up separately	Set up again at the new host. DoAny has accounts, storage and functions built in; bring files yourself, put API keys in its Secrets vault, and customers sign in again
Domain	Bought through Lovable: transfers out with an authorization code once it is 60 days past registration. Lovable custom domains	Any registrar. A domain bought elsewhere only needs its DNS records pointed at the new host
Credits	No. Credits freeze when the period ends; resubscribing before they expire brings them back (Lovable Terms); top-ups bought while subscribed stay usable on Free until they expire (Lovable plans)	Spend monthly credits on the export work before you cancel

Questions

Lovable alternatives FAQ

What is the best Lovable alternative?

For a non-technical founder who wants the business built and run after launch, DoAny, which publishes this page. For an existing JavaScript repo or an Expo mobile app, Bolt. For another programming language, hosting choices or a hard budget cap, Replit. For an all-in-one builder with scheduled agents, Base44. For React apps deployed on Vercel, v0.

Which Lovable alternative is cheapest?

By entry paid plan, Replit Core and Base44 Starter at $20 a month ($18 and $16 billed yearly). DoAny, Bolt and Lovable Pro start at $25, and v0 Plus at $30 per user. DoAny’s hosting uses no credits; Replit and Lovable bill hosting from theirs. For built-in payments, DoAny starts at $0: its Free plan can go live and take real card payments with 0% of sales (Stripe’s fees apply), while Lovable’s built-in payments need a paid plan.

Which alternatives keep my content out of AI training?

DoAny doesn’t train AI models on your data. Lovable excludes Business and Enterprise by default; on Free and Pro each person opts out. v0 defaults to opt-out from Business at $100 per user. From October 7, 2026, Bolt may train on your content unless you opt out. Base44 allows training on every plan except Enterprise, with no opt-out. Replit’s Pro Agreement allows training unless you opt out in settings; Enterprise rules it out, and Core’s privacy policy describes no opt-out.

Can I move a Lovable app without rebuilding it?

Mostly. The code leaves through Git sync or a zip download, and the Cloud database exports as a file of up to 5 GB. DoAny imports your exported code and database records, so you don’t start over; Bolt and Replit can import the code from GitHub, but Replit’s Lovable import leaves existing Supabase records behind. Storage files, Edge Function code, secrets and sign-in settings move separately, and in DoAny, Go live opens a new Stripe account, so existing subscriptions stay where they are until you move them.

Should I just stay with Lovable?

Stay if you rely on its strengths: two-way Git sync with GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket Cloud, a large connector catalog, SSO on Business, editing on the preview, yearly billing and credit rollover. If the training default is your only concern, the opt-out is free and takes one toggle per person. Switch for a concrete reason, such as hosting paid from your build credits, a stack Lovable does not support, or wanting the growth work done for you.
