Pricing

Plans as listed on each vendor's site when we last checked. Confirm before you buy.

Attribute	Google Stitch	Lovable
Plans	FreeOur pick Free Everyone. There's no paid plan.	Free Free Testing an idea over a weekend.
		ProOur pick $25/mo, or $250/yr billed yearly Anyone building something they plan to launch.
		Business $50/mo, or $500/yr billed yearly Teams that need logins, roles and security controls.
		Enterprise Custom Large organisations rolling it out company-wide.
Which plan to pick	There's only the free plan. Sign in with a Google account and start designing. If you hit the monthly cap, wait for it to reset next month.	Start on Free to see whether the chat-to-build approach suits you. Move to Pro the moment you are building something real, and buy a higher credit tier rather than topping up if you run out most months. Business only makes sense once several people need to log in and manage the apps.

Pros and cons

Attribute	Google Stitch	Lovable
Pros	Completely free Good-looking screens from a short description Exports to Figma and to code Official MCP server and Claude Code skills Accepts sketches and screenshots as a starting point	Finished-looking apps with the least prompting of any builder here Database, logins and storage are built in from the first prompt Code syncs to GitHub, so you are never locked in Visual edits for small tweaks save credits Large community and plenty of tutorials
Cons	Designs screens only, so you still need something to build the working app Figma export comes out as flat frames, not tidy components Monthly generation caps have changed before A Google Labs experiment, so it could change or close	Credits run out faster than you expect, and fixing its own mistakes costs credits too Hosting and AI usage inside your app draw from the same allowance as building Complex logic or unusual integrations often need a developer to finish The free plan is too tight to ship anything
