The distribution game is hard.

@Lovable just entered the arena.

To celebrate International Women's Day on March 8th, we're making Lovable completely free to use for the day, powered by @AnthropicAI.

That day we're also hosting a global build day through SheBuilds, where anyone can build with us. Community-led events are happening around the builders on hand to help you ship.

Every participant also gets $100 in Claude API credits and $250 in Stripe fee credits.
