Latent Space · rss · 2026-08-27
AI app development platform Lovable raised $400M in a Series C round led by Menlo Ventures, valuing the company at $13.3B. Evolving from GPT Engineer, Lovable has shifted from a simple app builder to a comprehensive software creation and hosting company.
- Pivot: Lovable is converting apps into 'capabilities' that agents can call directly via MCP servers, offering both traditional UI and agent interfaces.
- Vision: Building a 'Company Brain' as a single entry point for all tools and workflows, with context awareness and async execution.
- Growth: Over $500M ARR, 60M+ projects created, and usage by nearly two-thirds of the Fortune 500.
- Security: Uses 'connectors' to isolate external system credentials from app code to prevent data leaks.
