What a Lovable message costs
Lovable prices each build message on the work it does. These are Lovable's own examples, from its plans and credits page (checked 2026-10-28):
| Message | Credits |
|---|---|
| Make the button gray | 0.5 |
| Remove the footer | 0.9 |
| Add sign-up and log-in | 1.2 |
| Build a landing page with images | 2 |
| A message in Plan mode | 1 |
Every plan gets 5 free build credits a day. On the Free plan those stop at 30 a month. Pro starts at $25 a month for 100 credits, and you can choose more. Credits you don't use roll over for a while as long as you stay subscribed.
How to use fewer Lovable credits
- Plan the features first. Know what your app needs and in which order before the first prompt.
- One feature per prompt. Small prompts with one job change less, so there's less to undo.
- Say what not to touch. “Don't change the sign-up page” saves a lot of repair work.
- Test before the next step. A bug found right away takes one message to fix, not ten.

How much does Lovable Pro cost?
Pro starts at $25 a month for 100 credits, and you can pick more credits for a higher price. Business starts at $50 a month. Unused monthly credits roll over for a while as long as you stay subscribed.
Why do I run out of Lovable credits so fast?
Mostly because of fixing. A vague prompt changes more than you meant, and the next messages go to undoing it. Small prompts with one clear job, in a planned order, waste far fewer credits.
How exact is this calculator?
