A Lovable alternative with the back office already built
Looking for a Lovable alternative because you need a business website, not a custom app? Blaubok builds a real Next.js site from a chat, with the CRM, bookings and payments already in place, on accounts you own.
Facts checked October 2026
Blaubok or Lovable?
Lovable and Blaubok both turn a chat into a working site, but they aim at different jobs. Lovable writes a whole custom app from your prompt: a tool, a dashboard, an MVP with its own logic. It keeps that code in sync with GitHub, so you can take it anywhere. Blaubok is narrower on purpose. It builds business websites, and the parts most businesses need, such as a CRM, bookings, WhatsApp alerts, payments and staff roles, already exist in its engine. The AI wires them in instead of writing them from scratch, then writes your pages around them. If you are building a product with unusual logic, Lovable is the better fit. If you need a site that captures leads, takes bookings and gets paid from day one, on GitHub, Supabase and Vercel accounts in your name, Blaubok gets you there with less to build and test.
Which one fits you?
Pick Lovable if
- You’re building a custom web app, internal tool or MVP with its own logic.
- You want every line of the app as plain React code you can read and change.
- You like clicking on an element to adjust it, as well as chatting.
- You’d rather not set up database or hosting accounts yourself.
Pick Blaubok if
- You run a business and need leads, bookings and payments working on day one.
- You want WhatsApp lead alerts and Razorpay checkout without custom work.
- You want the code, data and hosting in accounts you own from the first build.
- You’d rather buy credits that never expire than keep a subscription running.

How each one charges
We describe how each tool charges rather than list prices, because prices change often.
How Lovable charges
Lovable sells subscription plans, billed monthly or yearly, and each plan comes with a set number of credits. Messages to the AI use those credits. There is a free plan with a small daily allowance, which is enough to try it out, and paid plans add more credits and more features. Hosting on Lovable is part of the plan. If you connect your own backend or deploy the code somewhere else, those services bill you separately. Lovable changes its plans from time to time, so check its pricing page for the current limits.
How Blaubok charges
There is no required subscription. New accounts get free welcome credits, no card needed. After that, buy credit packs as you go, and the credits never expire, or take an optional monthly plan. AI chat uses credits per message, and each built-in feature is charged once per project, never on rebuilds. GitHub, Supabase and Vercel bill you directly, and all three have free tiers. If your plan and credits run out, there is a 14-day grace period, then the engine is committed into your repo so the site keeps building on its own.

Write down what your Lovable app does
List the pages, forms and data it holds, and which parts customers actually use. If the project is synced to GitHub, keep that repo as your reference.
Sign up and connect your accounts
Create a free Blaubok account, then connect GitHub, Supabase and Vercel from the Connections tab. All three have free tiers.
Describe the site in chat
Paste your list. The chat turns it into a brief and picks the engine features, such as the CRM, bookings or payments, that replace custom code you had before.
Click Build, then review the preview
About five minutes later the site is live on your Vercel. Later chat edits land on a preview branch, and the live site changes only when you click Publish.
Move your data and domain
Point your domain at Vercel when you are happy. For help moving records out of an existing database, email info@clickfq.com. We look at data moves case by case and reply within 48 hours.

Lovable vs Blaubok: common questions
Is Blaubok a good Lovable alternative?
It is if you need a business website. Blaubok builds Next.js sites with a CRM, bookings, WhatsApp alerts and payments already built in, so you spend your credits on your pages, not on rebuilding a back office. If you need a custom app with its own logic, Lovable is the better tool, and we would rather say so than sell you the wrong one.
Can I take my code with me on either tool?
Yes, in different ways. Lovable syncs your project to GitHub as plain React code. Blaubok creates the repo in your own GitHub from the first build. Your pages, components and config are yours to edit, and the built-in features come from the Blaubok engine, a compiled package the site installs. If you stop paying, there is a 14-day grace period, then the engine is committed into your repo so the site keeps building on its own.
Can I import a Lovable project into Blaubok?
Not automatically. A Lovable project is a custom React app, and a Blaubok site is built on the engine, so the structure is different. The quickest route is to describe what your Lovable app does in the chat and let Blaubok build it, using engine features where they fit. For structured data, email info@clickfq.com and we will help case by case.
Where is Lovable better than Blaubok?
Lovable is better for custom apps: internal tools, dashboards and MVPs with logic no ready-made feature covers. Every line it writes is plain source code. It also lets you adjust a layout by clicking on it, and you can start without creating database or hosting accounts. Blaubok edits only by chat or in the code, and it asks you to connect GitHub, Supabase and Vercel first.
Which one costs less?
It depends on how you build. Lovable is a subscription with a monthly credit allowance. Blaubok has no required subscription: free welcome credits to start, then credit packs that never expire, or an optional monthly plan. Each built-in feature is charged once per project, never on rebuilds. With both, your own GitHub, Supabase and Vercel usage is billed by those services, and all three have free tiers.
Do both tools work with Supabase?
Yes. Lovable can connect to a Supabase project you own, or manage a backend for you. Blaubok always uses your own Supabase: it sets up the database when you click Build, and the tables the engine creates ship with row-level security. Your customers, leads and payments stay in a database in your name.
