Chattee vs Lovable

Two fact sheets from our own research, side by side — pricing, platforms, API access and status re-checked by us rather than quoted from the vendors.

The short answer

Free plan: Only Lovable (Chattee has paid plans only)
Public API: Lovable has one; not confirmed by us for Chattee
Best fit: Chattee: Internal tools that need roles, approvals and a database rather than a static page · Lovable: Founders and designers shipping a working prototype without a developer
Trust score: About even — Chattee 84, Lovable 86
Status: We could not check Lovable — its site turns automated checks away; Chattee was up on Oct 15, 2026

From our own records as of each tool's last check. Anything we have not confirmed is left out rather than guessed. How we verify

ChatteePrompt-to-app builder that ships full-stack web apps with auth, roles and exportable source code

What our research says

Chattee

Chattee's differentiator is not the generation quality — everyone claims that — but that you can export the code and walk away, and that a German GmbH is on the hook for the data. Roles and approval workflows out of the box put it closer to internal-tool builders than to landing-page generators. The credit ceiling on the entry plan is low enough that serious iteration pushes you to Pro fast.

Pros

Generates database, authentication, roles and approval workflows, not just a UI
Code export with self-hosting is supported, so the generated app is not trapped in the platform
Direct code editing for developers alongside the prompt loop
Custom domains and SSL from the Pro tier, white-labelling for agencies

Cons

No free tier — evaluation is a time-limited trial
100 build credits on Lite goes quickly, since each rebuild spends credits
Charged in euros, so the dollar cost moves with the exchange rate
No public API and the company publishes little beyond the legal notice

Lovable

The cleanest prompt-to-app experience for someone who cannot write React, and GitHub sync means you are not locked in — but 100 credits a month is less runway than it sounds once the app gets real.

Pros

Live preview after each change keeps iteration legible to non-developers
GitHub sync and Supabase mean the output is real, portable code
The free tier is enough to find out whether the idea works
Per-action credit costs are published, so estimating is possible

Cons

Free tier caps at 30 credits a month regardless of the daily grant
Debugging a bad generation can cost more credits than the original build
Opinionated stack — React front end, Supabase back end, little room to differ
API access is reserved for the Business tier, which charges double Pro's price per credit

Which one fits

Choose Chattee if you need

Internal tools that need roles, approvals and a database rather than a static page
EU teams that need a German data-protection story on the hosting
Agencies white-labelling small client apps

Choose Lovable if you need

Founders and designers shipping a working prototype without a developer
Anyone who wants generated code exported to GitHub rather than held hostage
Small internal tools needing authentication and a database on day one
