The latest AI news and updates of Lovable — AI app builder that generates full-stack web applications from natural language descriptions. Covering Lovable's latest product updates and company news from the past 90 days.
LovableOct 16Lovable launched a WhatsApp Business connector, enabling apps to send and receive messages on the platform. Connecting a business number generates a support inbox, appointment reminders, and message templates. The integration works on every plan without API keys, with Meta billing messages directly. Apps created before May 13, 2026, require an upgrade to support this messaging capability.
LovableOct 15Lovable now integrates an expanded roster of AI models and providers for building app features. The platform generates features from plain-language descriptions, handling model selection and setup automatically. Support now includes Claude, Firecrawl, Gemini, OpenAI, Perplexity, @p0, and TypeSafe AI, with all usage running on existing Lovable credits without separate API keys.
LovableOct 14Lovable launched growth tools to help builders find customers directly from their apps. The platform now generates growth plans and launches ad campaigns across Google, YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. It also creates marketing copy, images, and videos based on the app’s brand identity. These tools are available on Free, Pro, and Business plans.
LovableOct 1Lovable now integrates OpenAI's GPT-Live to support live voice conversations within applications built on its platform. The update features a demo app showcasing a 3D model of Rocky from Project Hail Mary that listens, responds in its own words, and gestures in real-time during spoken dialogue.
LovableSep 30Lovable now integrates with Microsoft, allowing apps built on the platform to run directly inside a company's Microsoft tenant. Publishing via Copilot Managed Runtime is rolling out in public preview. Connectors for Microsoft 365, Fabric, Dataverse, and SQL are available today, letting apps read and write data while using Microsoft Entra ID for sign-in and IT controls.
LovableSep 24Lovable now offers its Chat mode for free, providing a conversational interface for planning and debugging without automatic code changes. This mode facilitates project analysis and idea discussion with the agent, separating the thinking process from the Build mode's autonomous code editing.
LovableSep 24Lovable now integrates Anthropic's Claude models directly into user-built applications. The platform uses Claude Opus for visual identification and deep reasoning, while Claude Sonnet handles web search, retrieval, and synthesis. A demo app identifies furniture from a screenshot to assess condition and provide market price appraisals, demonstrating the platform's new capability for embedding autonomous AI features.
LovableSep 22Lovable now builds applications using Claude Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Sol. The platform automatically combines these models to determine the best output for each task, removing the need for manual model selection. This update continues the platform's approach of managing model routing internally rather than providing a picker for users.
LovableSep 22Lovable now builds with OpenAI's GPT-6 Sol, which achieves 10–15% higher intent alignment and 8–10% better design fundamentals on Lovable's 0-to-1 building benchmark. The model demonstrates a 6–12% performance increase across all effort levels.
LovableSep 22Lovable now builds with Opus 5.5, delivering the same quality as Opus 5 while reducing steps by up to 48% on existing codebases. The model gathers context in a single pass and improves self-verification discipline by 4–6%, finishing tasks in up to 57% fewer steps. These efficiency gains apply across 0-to-1 building and iterative code fixing.
LovableSep 3Lovable is now available as an integration within Linear, turning specs from Linear issues into live, hosted applications with a single call. The integration uses the Model Context Protocol to connect Linear workflows directly to Lovable’s app-building agent. Supported clients include ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, and VS Code.
LovableSep 2Lovable now supports direct interaction within Slack. Tagging the assistant in threads or direct messages initiates app building, code changes, or project data queries. This integration brings development capabilities directly into team communication channels, allowing for real-time project management and updates without leaving the Slack workspace.
LovableSep 2Lovable now builds with Fable 5.1, which outperforms Fable 5 by 17% on complex tasks at 31% lower cost. The model improves self-verification by opening apps in-browser before completion and delivers a 3.5% lift in visual design quality. A control plane algorithm routes complex or stuck sessions to the model on a case-by-case basis.
LovableAug 31Lovable integrated its workspace with ChatGPT, connecting projects directly to ChatGPT’s Chat, Work, and Codex interfaces. The integration supports backend feature additions like authentication and databases, application deployment, and live data retrieval directly within the ChatGPT environment.
LovableAug 28Lovable now enables published apps to function as MCP servers, allowing AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT to interact with them directly. The integration supports reading information, running workflows, and updating records. By default, tools require user sign-in via OAuth, and the feature is available on all plans for publicly published apps.
LovableAug 26Lovable is now available in Google's Antigravity agentic development platform. A one-time connection grants Antigravity agents access to the entire Lovable workspace, enabling them to build, iterate, query data, and deploy applications directly.
LovableAug 22Lovable now offers design systems on all paid plans, standardizing typography, color, spacing, and components across workspace projects. A design system acts as a centralized source of truth, automatically verifying setup and enforcing adherence to brand rules during generation. Updates flow to connected projects via one-click prompts, with setup verification runs billed at zero credits.
LovableAug 22Lovable now supports project imports from Manus. The workflow requires a request in the Lovable chat followed by an upload of the Manus zip export, which Lovable then uses to build the project.
LovableAug 14Lovable launched app user connectors, allowing end-users to authenticate their own accounts from platforms like Google Drive, HubSpot, and Slack within custom applications. The feature uses a secure gateway to manage OAuth and token refreshes, ensuring apps operate based on the specific permissions each user already holds in their connected tools.
LovableAug 12Lovable raised $400 million in Series C funding at a $13.3 billion valuation, led by Menlo Ventures and the Scaleup Europe Fund. The company plans to expand its platform for business operations, train its system on successful project outcomes, and grow its team to roughly 450 members across global offices.
