I’ve been using lovable for a year now. Built more than 300 projects. I used to create several projects built with 80-120 credits and 6-8 prompts total.
Today I’ve built two projects with 8 prompts each, and took me almost 1000 credits.
This is unreal and expensive.
Anyone noticing the same?
seems like lovable responded to some of the user complaints and has improved the agent's reasoning abilities from my observations.
credit waste also seems like it's better than it was in September and the first week of October
support still has room for improvement. I'm over 48 hours without a response on my last ticket
at least things seem to be heading in a better direction
I think it'd be nice if we could change the reasoning levels and corresponding credit usage depending on how complicated of a task we're working on
I am not very technical so I've been using Lovable for quite some time now for my projects and I've realised that when I'm trying to make backend changes or I'm trying to fix bugs, the prompts still don't work even though I give proper structured prompts. It ends up telling me that the bug is fixed, but it is not fixed costing me credits. How do I make sure that the bug is fixed? Or how do I make sure that the feature that I'm trying to implement has been implemented correctly? (Sometimes it affects other parts of the app and I have to start again). I test extensively before publishing but it takes a lot of time to get it right sometimes and other times I am not able to make it work the way its supposed to.
Are you guys facing the same problem and what is the workaround that you have come up with?
One of the biggest reasons Lovable is still competing in the market is due to its frontend design skills and instructions. Is there a publicly available skill.md file that can give UI outputs near to Lovable?
Used to be a good website but now these people are charging you an arm and a leg for the absolute WORST AI avaiable.
I guarantee they are using free opensource models and actually charging us for them. The code quality is for sure absolutely terrible and they refuse to say what model is under the hood.
Most of you wont notice it bceause your building simple websites, but anyhting 3d related and you can see how gargage it is, its like models from LAST YEAR.
Thats the entire reason they have no model selector .btw
Not only that but now if you try and enable supabase for your project they dont allow you to click a button, it literally just enters an auto prompt for the ai and it asks it too which it often declines and then will tell you sorry we can only build this on lovable cloud, which lovable cloud is ANOTHER Credit ripoff.
Ofc yes i now have codex and claude code building my websites, now which is 10x better.
Cant wait for this company to burn in hell. They are incredibly greedy.
Dont fall for the credit scam.
Every time I make a change/fix, I always get a little nervous it broke something somewhere else. Right now I just click through the main pages after each change and hope.
Does anyone have any checks they actually do to check? Has anyone ever had a change break something you didn't notice until a user told you?
Is it possible to create a shopify store and build.it with lovable? Find it easier to connect it to apis etc and make it more esthetic with lovable
Great idea.
Build it.
Get excited.
Reach 80%.
See another idea.
Repeat.
Apparently, I’m becoming really good at building apps nobody will ever use.
So I’m changing the rule: no new project until one goes live.
For the serial builders here, what finally taught you to finish?
Because at this point, I don’t need another idea.
I need discipline.
