The two-year-old platform lets anyone describe an app, website, or business tool in plain language and turns it into working code—no programming skills required. Co-founded by Fabian Hedin and Anton Osika, a former particle physicist at CERN, Lovable has become the[ fastest-growing software startup in history](https://aifundingtracker.com/lovable-vibe-coding-revenue/ "undefined"), reaching $200 million in annual recurring revenue within a year of launch. In December, it was valued at [$6.6 billion](https://techcrunch.com/2025/12/18/vibe-coding-startup-lovable-raises-330m-at-a-6-6b-valuation/ "undefined"). The company says more than 200,000 new projects are built on its platform every day, and its customers include Uber, Zendesk, Klarna, and McKinsey. Critics have raised concerns about security flaws in apps created by non-programmers, but Osika sees the platform as democratizing tech development. “Large AI labs are building increasingly powerful foundation models,” says Osika. “Lovable is focused on turning those capabilities into an end-to-end product experience for people who want to actually build and launch something.” _Disclosure: Investors in Lovable include Salesforce, where TIME co-chair and owner Marc Benioff is CEO._ ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Article","@id":"https://time.com/collection/time100-most-influential-companies/2026/lovable/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/collection/time100-most-influential-companies/2026/lovable/"},"headline":"Lovable","datePublished":"2026-04-30T14:09:39.754Z","dateModified":"2026-05-12T07:03:04.026Z","description":"","url":"https://time.com/collection/time100-most-influential-companies/2026/lovable/","keywords":["TIME100 Companies","franchise","list"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8cef2c83f53334f7/69d7dc1f320fd139944d6ef8/time100-companies-2026-lovable.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Amrita Khalid","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/amrita-khalid/"}],"creator":"Amrita Khalid","articleSection":"Business","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8cef2c83f53334f7/69d7dc1f320fd139944d6ef8/time100-companies-2026-lovable.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/business/","name":"Business"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/collection/time100-most-influential-companies/2026/lovable/","name":"Lovable"}}]}] ```
