If you are comparing Lovable pricing, the number that matters is not the monthly one, it is the meter behind it. ClickMVP does not run one: $149 once for a project, or $15 a month for unlimited projects, and the complete application's source code is yours.
7 days free to create, generate and test. Pay only when you want to take the code. No credit card.
Pricing
Nothing is charged per message, per generation or per deployed app. Regenerating the same project ten times costs the same as generating it once.
One product, paid once and kept forever.
once
For whoever starts a new product more than once.

The part the monthly price does not show
Credit based tools publish a subscription figure, and then the real cost depends on how many changes your app needs. That second price only appears once you are building.
| Credit metered builder | ClickMVP here | |
|---|---|---|
| What you actually pay for | Each message, and the cost of a message varies with how complex the task is | The plan. Generation is not metered, so the tenth regeneration costs what the first one did |
| Predictable before you start | No: the bill follows how many changes the product turns out to need | Yes: $149 once, or $15 a month, whatever the app turns out to be |
| Running out mid build | Buy a top-up and carry on | There is nothing to run out of |
| Unused balance | Credits expire, on schedules that differ for monthly plans, annual plans and top-ups | Nothing to expire, because nothing is prepaid |
| Cost of a big application | Scales with the conversation it takes to build it | Flat. Volume follows your data model, not your invoice |
| Running the app afterwards | Hosting the deployed app draws from the same balance | Your own infrastructure, with no runtime of ours in the project |
| What you hold at the end | An app on the platform, exportable | A standard repository: backend, frontend, migrations, tests and OpenAPI |
Credits are a fair way to sell a chat that writes code: you pay for the turns you use. It stops being predictable when the product needs more turns than expected, which is exactly when you can least afford to stop. ClickMVP prices the application instead of the conversation, because the generation is driven by your data model, not by how long it takes to explain it.
Lovable is an excellent product for rapid prototyping, and the mechanics described above are the ones it documents publicly, read on 12 August 2026: credits measure usage across the workspace, the rate they are consumed at depends on the plan and the task, and unused credits expire. Figures change, so check their pricing page for the current ones. Lovable is a trademark of its respective owners, with no relationship to ClickMVP.

What the price covers
Not a prototype and not a starting structure. Every registry of your model comes out with screens, API, permissions, migrations and tests.
Measured on a real project of 14 registries, generated in React with Spring Boot: 54,800 lines, none written by hand. A larger project generates more, a smaller one generates less: the volume follows your data model, and the price does not follow the volume.
Included in every generation, on every plan
Three backends and three frontends, on PostgreSQL. The API contract is authored by the generator, so any frontend pairs with any backend and changing sides does not rewrite the other. Vue.js is on the public roadmap.
The AI works like a systems analyst: it asks about your business before generating anything, and grounds the model in more than 1,600 real application models instead of an empty diagram. That is why the price can be flat: the work is modelling your product once, not paying per attempt to describe it.
Create the project, generate it, open the live preview and read the code. 7 days free, no credit card: paying is what takes the code with you.
