Today, we’re announcing that Lovable has raised $400 million in Series C funding at a $13.3 billion valuation, led by Menlo Ventures and co-led by the Scaleup Europe Fund, managed by EQT. The round also welcomes Balderton Capital and Carmignac from Europe, Kaszek Ventures and LTS Growth from Latin America, Tencent and World Innovation Lab from Asia, and Regent from the United States, broadening the group of investors backing Lovable’s global ambition. Returning investors include Accel, Antler, CapitalG, DST Global, Evantic Capital, HubSpot Ventures, and Salesforce Ventures.

Lovable is building the software creation platform that gives those closest to a problem the power to solve it, a generational opportunity that spans billions of people all over the world. This investment moves Lovable closer to becoming the one place where people create new businesses and transform existing ones.

What we’ve been working on

For most people, turning an idea into software once required so much capital, technical fluency, and time that many ideas never came to life. Lovable’s first chapter was about changing that. Since Lovable’s launch in November 2024, people have created more than 60 million projects, and Lovable-built apps see over 900 million visits every month. Within its first year, Lovable reached employees at half of the Fortune 500; now, less than a year later, that figure has grown to nearly two-thirds.

Since our Series B in December 2025, we’ve been building features people need to reach customers, manage day-to-day operations, and run software securely. A few highlights include:

Payment functionality that helps people monetize

SEO and AI-search tools that improve discoverability

Deeper integrations with Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Salesforce, Stripe, and ElevenLabs

Automatic and scheduled security scanning

Earning AIUC-1 certification, the first security standard for AI agents

Governance and visibility features including publishing controls, abandoned app clean-up, and workspace insights

A dedicated security page for businesses built on Lovable: publicly published Lovable apps can now come with their own trust center

For many builders, the product they create with Lovable is becoming the business itself. User survey data shows us that nearly 8 in 10 are building a business or side project they hope to monetize, and more than one-third of those are already earning revenue.

Inside established companies like Adidas, NVIDIA, and Deutsche Telekom, teams are using Lovable to create software around critical workflows, replace tools that no longer serve them, and turn promising internal projects into new products and revenue streams.

A few of our favorite stories:

WNTD [United Kingdom]: Lex Deak, a serial founder with 25+ years experience, built fashion discovery app WNTD using Lovable — saving £25-30K every month, onboarding hundreds of thousands of customers, and closing a £3M funding round.

Viver de IA [Brazil]: Rafael Milagre built the systems behind his AI education company with Lovable, including its CRM, finance tools, website, and AI SDR workflows. The 54-person company serves more than 1,200 clients and is on track for R$100 million in revenue this year.

Nursa [United States]: Nursa’s VP of Product, Nenad Ivanovic, built Nursa Study, a new enterprise product for nursing schools, in a single weekend with Lovable. The company has since rolled Lovable out across its 200+ employees, rebuilt its core platform 12x faster, and is in the process of retiring 10 SaaS systems as teams build their own tools.

In our customers’ own words:

Jorge Luthe, Senior Director of Product, Zendesk:

What started as a faster way to prototype has become an important tool for building internal products that support how our teams work. With Lovable, we’ve been able to build solutions tailored to our business needs, from internal training tools to a roadmap application that better fits our workflow and reduces reliance on expensive off-the-shelf software.

Veronika Zatulovskaya, VP of Marketing, Handshake:

Lovable has changed how we think about building internal software. Instead of adding another tool to our marketing stack, our teams can quickly create whatever they need to solve problems — a campaign planning tool, an onboarding experience, or an internal AI resource hub. This gives us more control over how we work and allows us to move faster.

Luca Bonmassar, CTO, Checkr:

With Lovable, our teams are quickly able to build solutions themselves. Our operations team fixed an issue in their QA workflow and can now process 10x more reports. We also built an internal operating system that brings business reviews, roadmaps, OKRs, and project tracking...
