Home / Compare builders / Lovable vs Replit
Both build your app and run it for you. Lovable suits you if you want one managed service for a web app, with GitHub sync on every plan; Replit suits you if you want one company to build and host it on its cloud, with a ZIP from the file tree. To run it yourself, Lovable's backend, AI and connectors run through Lovable until you replace them, and Replit documents self-hosting only for Enterprise, in early access.

SPOE vs Lovable · SPOE vs Replit · How to export from Lovable · How to export from Replit
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. Replit: A ZIP from the file tree's menu. Your code on GitHub: Two-way sync once you connect a repo and turn on auto-sync. 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. Replit: Self-hosting is Enterprise only, in early access: a Docker image, a Terraform file and an SBOM. SPOE: docker compose up, with nothing of SPOE inside.
Lovable: None on their pages. Replit: 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. Replit: Your prompts and its responses are used to improve its models. The opt-out is described for Pro; Enterprise content is not used for training. 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. Replit: Starter is free: a daily Agent allowance, limited monthly cloud credits and one published app, whose link goes down after 30 days. 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.
