## What we verified

### Lovable — Lovable

Why it ranks here: Best balance of a polished first result and a ready backend (Lovable's built-in backend, on by default; connecting your own Supabase remains an option), ideal for non-developers.

Official site: https://lovable.dev

### Base44 — Base44 (Wix)

Why it ranks here: Has a free plan and a full built-in stack, but the free plan is capped at 5 apps and the entry price requires annual billing.

## How we compare

Both are judged by the same Vibe coding (no-code apps) criteria:
