Lovable Pricing 2026: Free, Pro, Business & Credit Costs

Lovable's pricing is built around workspaces and credits rather than seats. Free costs $0. Pro costs $25 per month or roughly $21 per month when billed annually, while Business costs $50 monthly or roughly $42 annual-equivalent. Enterprise is custom. Every plan supports unlimited workspace members, so a growing team does not automatically multiply the subscription price.

The bigger 2026 change is how credits work. Lovable now uses one paid credit balance across app building, Lovable Cloud and AI features inside deployed applications. That makes billing easier to understand operationally, but it also means production usage can draw from the same resource pool that funds ongoing development.

Lovable pricing plans at a glance

Lovable Free plan

Free costs $0 and does not require a credit card. The current pricing page lists 5 free build credits per day, up to 30 per month, plus 20 Cloud credits per month and 4 credits for AI features inside deployed apps. Free workspaces support unlimited collaborators and private projects.

The daily build grant expires at the end of each day and does not roll over. Because the plan is permanent, it works better as an evaluation environment than a short trial. Users can build a small app, learn the credit model and see whether Lovable's generated code fits their expectations before paying.

Lovable Pro pricing

Pro costs $25 per month. Annual billing is currently marketed as two months free, which works out to roughly $21 per month equivalent and around $250 for a full year. The plan includes 100 monthly credits plus the free grants provided to paid subscribers.

Pro adds custom domains, Lovable badge removal, on-demand credit top-ups, unlimited lovable.app domains, design systems, user roles and permissions, per-member credit limits and email support. It is designed for teams actually shipping apps rather than only experimenting.

Importantly, Pro still supports unlimited workspace members. A five-person product team can collaborate under one workspace subscription and share the same credit pool instead of purchasing five Pro seats.

Lovable Business pricing

Business costs $50 per month or roughly $42 per month when billed annually. It currently includes the same 100 base monthly credits shown on the public plan card, which means the higher price is primarily paying for organizational features rather than a simple doubling of build capacity.

Business adds SSO, restricted projects, advanced roles or security controls, design templates and the Security Center. It is aimed at growing departments where governance and access management matter more than just prompt volume.

Because the per-credit value can differ by plan and feature, Lovable notes that Cloud and in-app AI usage may display different credit consumption after moving between Pro and Business even when the underlying service cost is unchanged.

Lovable Enterprise pricing

Enterprise uses custom pricing and volume-based credit economics. It adds capabilities such as SCIM provisioning, audit logs, group-based access controls, procurement flexibility, dedicated support and custom integrations. Organizations should request both a platform quote and an expected production-usage model.

How Lovable credits work in 2026

Lovable introduced unified billing in June 2026. Previously, users had separate balances for building and for production Cloud or AI usage. The current model uses one paid balance across all three areas, making the workspace credit history easier to understand.

Credits can fund building messages, Cloud infrastructure and AI features inside user applications. The value and consumption rate of a credit can vary by feature and subscription plan, so one credit should not be treated as a universal unit of compute.

Build-credit consumption

Default Mode prices build requests by task complexity. Lovable's current pricing page gives examples such as a small button-style adjustment at about half a credit, removing a footer at under one credit, adding authentication at around 1.2 credits and building a multi-section landing page with generated images at around 1.7 credits. These are examples rather than guarantees.

Plan Mode uses one credit per message, giving users a more predictable meter when they prefer stepwise planning before larger implementation work.

Lovable Cloud credits

Every Free, Pro and Business workspace currently receives 20 Cloud credits per month as a grant. For many small or new applications, publishing and keeping the app online can remain within this amount. Higher traffic, storage, database activity or application size can draw additional credits from the general balance.

This is why the subscription price should not be treated as the total production bill for a successful high-traffic app.

AI credits inside deployed apps

The Free plan receives 4 monthly credits specifically for trying AI functionality inside deployed apps. Paid plans can fund AI features through the main workspace balance. This can simplify early development because teams do not need separate infrastructure billing for every prototype.

Once an app has substantial active usage, it is important to model AI calls per user. Production AI consumption can become much larger than development prompting.

Do Lovable credits roll over?

Yes, but with limits. Monthly paid credits currently expire two months after they are issued. Annual-plan credits expire one month after the annual subscription period ends. Top-up credits last twelve months from purchase. Daily free build grants expire at the end of each day and do not roll over.

If a subscription is canceled, remaining paid credits can be used until the end of the current billing period. After the plan moves to Free, eligible unused paid credits can remain frozen for possible reactivation until their normal expiry if the user later resubscribes.

Lovable top-up credits

Pro and Business support on-demand credit top-ups. Lovable does not publish one universal top-up dollar rate in the main pricing page because the value of credits can depend on plan and service. Buyers should check the live billing screen rather than rely on older third-party price tables.

Unlimited collaborators and workspace economics

Lovable does not charge per seat. Every plan supports unlimited members, and all collaborators use the shared workspace credits. Owners and admins can configure default monthly limits and per-member overrides to prevent one person from consuming the entire balance.

This can make Lovable attractive for larger cross-functional teams with modest total build volume. A tool with cheaper per-user pricing can still cost more if every collaborator needs a paid seat.

Lovable cancellation policy

Paid plans renew automatically unless canceled before the next renewal date. Users can terminate through account settings. After cancellation, the paid plan remains active through the current term.

Lovable refund policy

Lovable's current Terms state that subscription fees and credits are non-refundable except where applicable law requires otherwise. Credits are also non-redeemable for cash. AI actions can consume credits even if the output later needs to be regenerated, which makes review and prompt discipline important.

What can make Lovable expensive?

Complex build requests can consume more credits than small edits. Production traffic can add Cloud usage, while an AI-heavy application can consume additional credits every time users call a model-backed feature. Third-party services such as Stripe, email providers or external AI APIs can add their own charges when configured outside Lovable-managed usage.

Debugging is another hidden cost. If an AI-generated feature requires repeated attempts, every regeneration can consume additional credits even though only the final implementation is useful.

Which Lovable plan offers the best value?

Choose Free for learning and small prototypes. Choose Pro when you need custom domains, serious iteration and production usage. Choose Business when SSO, restricted projects and governance justify the additional $25 monthly cost. Choose Enterprise when identity, audit, support and procurement requirements outweigh self-serve simplicity.

Lovable pricing compared with alternatives

Bolt.new Pro is $25 per month and starts with 10 million monthly tokens. v0 Plus is $30 per user per month with $30 of included monthly credits plus free daily credits. Base44 Starter is $20 monthly or $16 annual-equivalent with 100 message credits and 2,000 integration credits.

These units are not directly comparable. Lovable prices by shared credits across build and production, Bolt uses AI tokens plus hosting limits, v0 uses dollar-denominated model credits and Base44 separates message credits from integration credits. Compare the same app-building and production workload rather than the largest headline allowance.

Final pricing verdict

Lovable's $25 Pro plan is competitively priced for a product that includes AI building, collaboration and production infrastructure. Unlimited members also make the workspace model favorable for teams compared with tools that charge every collaborator. Business should be justified by governance rather than by expecting a major increase in raw build credits.

The main complexity is that production and development now share one economic system. This is cleaner than separate balances, but it makes successful application usage part of the same budget conversation. Track Cloud and in-app AI consumption after launch and do not assume a low build cost guarantees a low operating cost.
