Side by side
| Topic | Lovable | page51 |
|---|---|---|
| How the site is made | AI writes a React app or site from your prompt. | AI builds it from your description, your old website and your photos, after you agree a plan. |
| Changes later | By chat, the core of the product; each message uses credits. | By speaking or typing. Every change is shown before it goes live; one-step undo. |
| Chat for your visitors | Not built in; you can build a chatbot with its AI connector, paid by use. | Included, set up from your own facts. Hands over to a person when the site does not say. |
| SEO | New projects render on the server; an SEO review checks metadata and sitemap. Keywords and content are yours. | On-page and technical SEO set up for you: titles, descriptions, structured data, sitemap. |
| Leaving | Two-way GitHub sync on every plan; a ZIP of the code on paid plans. | Your texts, photos and web address. Download your content any time. |
| Price with your own domain | Pro: $25 a month, or $250 a year, with 100 credits a month. A free plan without your own domain. | $39 a month for one site; $15 a site from 10 sites. No build fee, free preview, month to month. |
