Pick Lovable Pro ($25/month, or $21/month billed annually) if you’re a solo builder or a small team that needs credits, custom domains and basic roles. Pick Lovable Business ($50/month, or $42/month billed annually) only if your company needs SSO, a team workspace, role-based access, the security center or priority support, because Business does not add more included credits: both start at 100 monthly credits.
That last bit is the plot twist most people miss. Business is a controls upgrade, not a horsepower upgrade.
It’s The Devil Wears Prada. Pro already gets you into the building and lets you raid the closet. Business is Andy walking in with the full Runway wardrobe: same job, same 100 credits, much better access badges. Whether that’s worth $25 more a month depends entirely on whether your IT team is Miranda.

How to read it:
- Pricing is not per seat. Lovable’s FAQ: “Workspaces support unlimited members on all plans, and plans are priced by the credits they include, not by seats.” Both cards say “Unlimited users”.
- Pro’s card lists “100 Pro credits”, “Credit rollovers”, “On-demand credit top-ups”, “Unlimited lovable.app domains”, “Custom domains”, “User roles & permissions”, “Per-member credit limits”, “Remove the Lovable badge”, “Email support” and “Design systems”.
- Business’s card says “All Pro features”, then adds “100 Business credits”, “Team workspace”, “Role-based access”, “Workspace publish”, “SSO”, “Security center”, “Design templates” and “Priority support”.
- “Yes (all Pro)” in the table means Business inherits the line through “All Pro features”, not that the Business card repeats it.
- Data-training opt-out: the brief asked for it, so here’s the straight answer. It is not published on the Pro card, the Business card or the pricing FAQ as of Nov 8, 2026. Lovable’s Enterprise card lists other data features (directory sync via SCIM, audit logs, EU inference), but no training opt-out line appears for Pro or Business.
The taglines tell you who Lovable thinks each plan is for. Pro: “Designed for fast-moving teams building together in real time.” Business: “Advanced controls and power features for growing departments”.
The credits math, as published
Both plans start at 100 monthly credits. Here’s what Lovable publishes about them (FAQ, verified Nov 8, 2026):
- How credits are spent: in Default Mode, “credits vary based on task complexity”. In Plan Mode it’s “1 credit per message”. The FAQ lists example costs of 0.50, 0.90, 1.20 and 1.70 credits.
- Expiry: monthly plan credits expire “two (2) months after they’re issued”. Annual plan credits expire “one (1) month after your annual period ends”. Top-ups last “twelve (12) months”. Daily build grants expire at the end of the day. Credits are not refundable.
- Daily and monthly grants on paid plans: “daily grants of 5 build credits (some regional plans cap these at 30 per month) and a monthly grant of 20 Cloud credits”. The size of the regional cap per region is not published.
- Per-member control: owners and admins can “set a default monthly credit limit and per-member overrides”.
Why Business costs more for the same 100 credits. Lovable answers this directly: “The higher price reflects the additional features Business adds on top of Pro for teams and larger organizations.” The FAQ also says the Run and AI-feature cost “is the same for Business and Pro subscribers”, and “Since credits are priced higher on business plans”, switching from Pro to Business shows lower credit usage for Run and AI cost. Translation: same dollar cost for those features, different credit price tag.
The Pro credit dropdown (monthly, verified Nov 8, 2026):
- 100 credits: $25/mo (the default)
- 200: $50 · 400: $100 · 800: $200
- 1,200: $294 (“Save 2%”) · 2,000: $480 (4%) · 3,000: $705 (6%)
- 4,000: $920 (8%) · 5,000: $1,125 (10%)
- 7,500: $1,688 · 10,000: $2,250, then “Need more credits?”
Our arithmetic: 100 credits for $25 is $0.25 a credit; 10,000 for $2,250 is $0.225 a credit. The bulk discount is real but gentle. Larger Business credit-tier prices weren’t part of the Nov 8, 2026 check, so I’m not listing them.
Annual math (our arithmetic, Nov 8, 2026 prices): Pro is $21 × 12 = $252 a year against $300 paid monthly. Business is $42 × 12 = $504 against $600. Lovable labels the yearly toggle “2 months free”. Pro to Business costs $25 more a month, or $21 more a month on annual.
When Business is worth it
Remember The Intern? Anne Hathaway’s startup grew from a scrappy team into a company that suddenly needed process, oversight and a grown-up in the room. That’s the Business buyer. Not “we need more credits”, but “we need SSO before security lets us use this”.
Business makes sense if:
- Your company requires SSO. It’s on the Business card, not Pro.
- You need a team workspace with role-based access rather than Pro’s user roles and permissions.
- Someone will actually use the security center.
- You want priority support over email support.
- You publish from a shared workspace (“Workspace publish” is a Business line).
Pro is enough if:
- You’re solo or a small team happy with user roles, per-member credit limits and custom domains.
- Your problem is running out of credits. Business won’t fix that; it starts at the same 100. Move up Pro’s credit dropdown or buy top-ups instead.
- You’re a student. The pricing card offers “up to 50% off Lovable Pro”; details sit on the student page (verified Oct 25, 2026).
If you haven’t paid at all yet, read is Lovable free first: Free includes “a daily grant of 5 build credits (up to 30 a month)” per the Nov 8, 2026 FAQ. Shopping across tools? Lovable vs Bolt, v0 vs Lovable and AI coding tools compared cover the neighbours.
Here’s what I’d do
Start on Pro, monthly. If you hit the credit wall, scale Pro’s credit dropdown before touching Business, because Business is the same 100 credits at a higher sticker. Move to Business on the day someone in security or IT asks for SSO, role-based access or a security center, and not a day before. Paying $25 more a month for badges nobody checks is the Runway closet with no fashion show.
If you go annual, do it after a full month on the plan you’ll actually keep. Remember that annual credits expire “one (1) month after your annual period ends”, so stockpiling isn’t a strategy.
