Home / Compare builders / Lovable vs Bolt
Lovable suits you if you would rather one managed service build, host and run your web app; Bolt suits you if you want to build in one browser tab with nothing to install. To get the code out, Lovable syncs with GitHub on every plan and keeps the ZIP for paid plans, while Bolt downloads a ZIP at any time. Neither one's pages offer a signed record of what was built; SPOE signs every export.

SPOE vs Lovable · SPOE vs Bolt · How to export from Lovable · How to export from Bolt
Lovable: A ZIP on paid plans. On any plan, one file at a time. Your code on GitHub: Two-way sync with github.com, on all plans. Bolt: A ZIP of the project files, at any time. Your code on GitHub: Two-way: it commits each working change and pulls changes from GitHub every 30 seconds. SPOE: A ZIP, unlocked for good by your first payment of any size. Your code on GitHub: Two-way: every version is a commit, and commits in the repo come back in.
Lovable: Only once it stops calling Lovable. Its built-in backend, AI and connectors run through Lovable until you replace them. Bolt: The download runs on your computer with npm install && npm run dev. Its pages do not say whether an app on Bolt Database keeps working after you leave. SPOE: docker compose up, with nothing of SPOE inside.
Lovable: None on their pages. Bolt: None on their pages. SPOE: An Ed25519-signed provenance manifest in every export, a record of it on APIR's hash-chained log, and a check anyone can run at spoe.ai/verify.
Lovable: On Free and Pro, your data may train its models unless you opt out, since 9 September 2026. Business and Enterprise are excluded by default. Bolt: May train AI models on your projects and chats unless you turn the setting off; it is off by default only in the EU, UK and Switzerland. SPOE: The default models keep no copy. Chats, bots and images stay on your device.
Lovable: 5 build credits a day, up to 30 a month. Starting to build is free. Bolt: 1 million tokens a month, at most 300,000 a day. SPOE: One free build on the default models once your email address is proven (by Google or GitHub, or where email sign-up is open, a code we email you). No card. Then any first payment opens every model and export, for good.
