Full Lovable review

v0

  • Free plan includes GitHub sync and Vercel deploys
  • Vercel doesn't claim the code you generate
  • Goes from a prompt to a live site on Vercel
  • Free plan stops at 7 messages a day
  • Free credits are a one-time $5 for new users
  • No Android app

v0 is Vercel's AI app builder. Describe a website or web app, and it writes the code, shows a preview and can put it online on Vercel. Vercel says it doesn't own the code v0 makes, and GitHub sync is included on every plan, even Free. The catch is the limit: the free plan allows 7 messages a day. For steady building you need Plus, which costs $30 a month and includes $30 of credits.
