AI App-Builder Lovable Surpasses $600M in Annualized Revenue as 'Vibe Coding' Booms

Lovable, the artificial intelligence startup known for its 'vibe coding' platform that lets users build software applications through natural-language prompts, has seen its annualized revenue cross $600 million, according to comments from the company's co-founder.

Fabian Hedin, who co-founded Lovable, said that applications created using the platform are collectively drawing nearly a billion monthly views, a sign of the scale at which non-technical users and developers alike are turning to AI-assisted tools to build and launch software products.

Lovable is part of a broader wave of AI-powered 'vibe coding' platforms that have gained rapid traction over the past year, allowing users with little or no traditional programming background to describe an application in plain language and have an AI system generate the underlying code. The category has attracted significant investor interest as companies compete to make software development more accessible.

The revenue milestone underscores the speed at which AI-native startups have been able to scale compared with earlier generations of software companies, many of which took years longer to reach comparable revenue levels. The growth also reflects rising demand from businesses and individuals seeking to prototype or launch digital products without hiring dedicated engineering teams.

As the vibe coding sector expands, questions remain about long-term differentiation between competing platforms, the durability of usage growth, and how such tools will affect the broader software development labor market. Lovable's reported figures were disclosed as part of ongoing discussion around the company's trajectory, though the company did not immediately release detailed financial statements to accompany the announcement.

The report was published by TechCrunch, which covers technology industry news including startups and venture-backed companies.
