If you're a designer who needs more visual control, a founder building your first MVP, or a PM trying to explain a feature flow, there are different, more specialised tools out there. We collected and reviewed strong Lovable alternatives based on your use cases, needs or specific role.
1. For Design Prototyping
Banani
Banani takes your prompt and turns it into editable UI designs that you can view and edit with AI on canvas. You can tweak designs visually or export to Figma. If you upload a screenshot, it adapts to your actual design style.
Why it's good Lovable alternative for design:
Feels like a visual design tool, not a dev platform
You can see multiple screens at the same time on Canvas
Faster to see generations and results
Easier to iterate without touching code
Built-in Figma backward compatibility
Stitch
Google's Stitch is quite similar to Lovable in the way it looks and works, but in the end, it focuses more on the visual aspect of the generation. You can describe the screen you need in plain text, and iterate it via chat or by manually customizing the theme.
Why it's a good alternative:
You can see a few screens side-by-side
Tools to quickly customise visuals
More UX-focused than UI-focused
2. For Vibe-Coding MVPs
Bolt.new
Just like Lovable, Bolt lets you generate full apps from prompts. It runs in the browser and includes frontend, backend, package installs, and immediately deploys the generated app on their platform.
Aside from robust built-in infrastructure, it's a nice Lovable alternative if you want to vibe-code a mobile product, as Bolt supports React Native and Expo. You can generate native iOS or Android apps and preview them on your device.
Why it's a good Lovable alternative:
Covers more ground than Lovable
Comes with backend and database setup
Built for fast prototyping and live sharing
a0.dev
a0.dev helps you build full-stack mobile apps from prompts. It's a great competitor to Lovable in the space of iOS and Android. Aside from generating react-native code, it will handle the creation of production builds for the App Store and Google Play. So you can focus on vibe-coding the idea, rather than having a headache with deployment.
Why it's a good alternative:
Best vibe-coding AI tool for mobile apps
Familiar to Lovable UX
Handles everything you need for the app
Replit AI
Replit, originally started as an online IDE for developers and students, recently pivoted fully into an AI development platform. It gives you a full coding environment in the cloud. The AI helps with scaffolding and editing.
Since it was originally an IDE, it has great built-in collaboration features, so you can invite collaborators and ship live from the same interface.
Why we picked Replit:
Real-time coding and deployment
Great for solo builders or small teams
Works beyond just layout generation
Base44
Base44 is a full-stack AI builder that turns plain-English prompts into working apps. Just like Lovable this alternative handles everything from frontend to backend, including auth, database, hosting, and logic.
It's fast, direct, and useful if you want something live and working without touching code or stitching services together.
Why it's a good alternative:
Same UX as Lovable
Generates a real full-stack app from one prompt
Instant live preview with no local setup
Handles backend, auth, and integrations automatically
3. For Coding Existing Product
MagicPatterns
MagicPatterns is a prompt-to-UI tool built for teams that works with existing design systems. Similarly to Lovable, it generates front-end, but instead of a generic React, it can use your own design tokens, spacing, components, etc.
Instead of just generating something that looks nice, it focuses on consistency and reusability.
Why it's a good:
Generates UI layouts using your design tokens and spacing rules
Built for teams using Tailwind or component libraries like Radix
Focuses on reusable layout patterns instead of visual fluff
Vercel v0
v0 outputs clean React components styled with shadcn/ui. It integrates deeply with the Vercel ecosystem and is ready to ship. If you're using shadcn/ui it's great because you can vibe-code new features and copy-paste React code in your real project.
Why it's a useful alternative:
Very close to Lovable.dev in tech
Easy to add generated results to the real product
Cleaner integration if you're already using Vercel
Focused on performance and clarity
Cursor
Most likely heard about Cursor, but we couldn't not include it. It was one of the first AI-first code editors, which speeds up and simplifies the process of development. It understands the context of your code base and helps you refactor, debug, or implement new features using AI.
Why we picked it:
The best AI-IDE on the market
Made for working with existing projects
Solid base, as it's created on top of VS Code
4. For Designers
Banani
If Lovable and Figma had a baby, Banani would be this product. It's made to be a standalone vibe-designing tool, but can be used in addition to Figma.
You can generate designs from images and text prompts in the specific style you need. View them on canvas, and in the end export or share them with your team.
Why it's a good alternative:
Great AI UI generations
Control over the style
Feels like a design tool rather than an AI coding tool
Easy Figma handoff
MagicPath
MagicPath is a UI design tool that feels like it was made for designers who want vibe-design without giving up visual control. You describe a component or screen, and it generates it on a canvas where you can move, tweak, and restyle it.
Why it's a useful option:
Familiar Lovable user experience
Canvas to view generated designs
Good style controls
5. For Developers
Builder.io
Builder is a gen dev platform that combines AI vibe-coding with drag-and-drop editing. It aimed at teams who build real products, not just prototypes.
It integrates tightly with frameworks like React, Vue, Next.js, and more. And it also supports Figma import (that Lovable actually uses on their end), so you can easily import designs of new features given by your design team.
Why it’s a good alternative to Lovable:
AI generations can use your own components
Superb Figma integration
Ideal for engineers working on real apps
v0
Vercel v0 generates projects using clean React components styled with shadcn/ui. It's quickly becoming a standard stack for web development, so if you're a developer, high chance that you will find this extremely useful.
You get the power of Lovable, and code that can actually be useful in your day-to-day job.
Why we picked it:
Close to Lovable.dev in tech
Cleaner integration if you're already using Vercel
Focused on performance and clarity
6. For PMs and Founders
Banani
As a product manager, you don't care about having a working code. You focused on earlier stages where you make wireframes and UI prototypes to communicate the idea to your team, stakeholders, or users. Banani is tailor-made for this, while keeping all the powerful AI features of Lovable.
Why it's a good alternative:
Fast communication of feature ideas
Much faster and no time spent on debugging generated code
No design background needed
Bolt.new
Bolt.new gives you a working product from a single prompt. It generates full applications with frontend, backend, auth, database, and even deploys them automatically. You get a live, testable version without needing to open an editor.
It's useful in early product stages where you want to validate an idea quickly or show something functional to your team or stakeholders.
Why Bolt:
Generates full-stack apps with zero setup
Good for pitching, prototyping, or early user testing
Gives you something real to share, not just mockups
