For most of software history, even if you understood a problem better than anyone, you still needed someone else to help you build the solution.
That meant a lot of good ideas never became products.
Today we’re sharing our first look at the global build economy: more than 50M projects built on Lovable and 720M monthly visits to Lovable-built projects. Ideas are becoming products, and products are turning into companies.
The people building them are also different from what many would expect.
They may not have a CS degree, venture capital, or a technical co-founder, but they have customer knowledge, industry context, and a clear sense of what needs to exist.
It is still early, but the direction is clear: as this category matures, the impact will be greater than just more software. There will be more solutions, more companies, and more economic activity.
