Lovable is a front-end generator that produces beautiful React mockups on a Supabase backend. It’s popular with designers and founders who want a polished prototype fast. Sentrely is a different offer: we deploy AI agents into your Slack, supervised by real engineers, and ship real production software into accounts your company owns.
Where Lovable wins
- Beautiful front-end mockups. Lovable’s generated UIs look good out of the box in a way most vibe-coding tools don’t match.
- Fast prototyping. For a design demo or a stakeholder pitch, Lovable gets you a working front-end in minutes.
- Portable Supabase. Compared to Base44 (MongoDB on Wix servers), Lovable is more portable — the Supabase backend can be self-hosted.
Where Lovable hits a wall
- Security incidents. The April 2026 BOLA vulnerability (CVE-2025-48757) compromised 170+ Lovable-built apps across 303 endpoints in a 48-day silent breach. CEO Anton Osika publicly apologized. VibeAppScanner data suggests around 70% of Lovable apps ship with row-level security disabled.
- Uptime. Lovable has hundreds of incidents on StatusGator since May 2025. A 42-minute worldwide login outage on Feb 26, 2026 knocked out access to projects.
- Credit-burn loops. Reviewers describe the “Fix Issue” function failing repeatedly, each attempt costing prompts, with the same error persisting.
- Support gaps. Getting to direct support requires a paid plan; free-tier issues linger.
- Deployment gap. Founders describe getting to “a beautiful mockup that you can’t actually launch without technical help.” The moment you need to ship to real customers, you need a developer.
What Sentrely does differently
- Real engineers reviewing every change. Security and software engineers on our team review anything material before it ships to production. The BOLA-class vulnerability wouldn’t have shipped.
- Ships into your accounts. Your cloud, your source code, your data. Sentrely goes away, your app keeps running.
- Flat monthly cost. $500 Small, $1,500 Growth, $5,000 Enterprise. No credit meter. Cloud costs go direct to your cloud provider at their published rates.
- 35-day rewind. Point-in-time recovery on your database. If anything ever breaks, you rewind to a known-good state in one command.
- Real production complexity. Multi-tenant SaaS, payments, real-time systems, multi-region deploys — the things Lovable caps out on.
When to pick which
- Pick Lovable if you need a beautiful React mockup for a pitch or a design review, and you’re OK with taking it further later.
- Pick Sentrely if you want real production software your business will depend on, supervised by human engineers, running in accounts you own.
