Lovable Aims to Double Valuation to $13.2 Billion in New Funding Round

Vibe coding just got expensive. Lovable, the Swedish startup that turns plain-English prompts into shipped apps, is in talks to raise $300 million at a $13.2 billion valuation — exactly double the $6.6 billion it commanded last December. For a company less than three years old that hit a $500 million annualized revenue run rate in June, that's not hype. That's traction, priced accordingly.

The number tells you where the market thinks software is going. Vibe coding — the act of describing what you want and watching the AI build it — is, per the reporting that surfaced the round, "by far the most popular and lucrative use case for AI." Founders, designers, and salespeople who would never touch a package.json are shipping e-commerce storefronts and internal tools.
