Lovable Now Builds Full-Stack Apps Directly Inside Slack
Lovable now lives inside Slack as a chat agent, letting teams spin up projects, ship updates, and query app data without opening a browser tab.
- Lovable now works inside Slack via
@Lovablementions or DMs to build and update apps - Reads thread context and pulls from connected tools like Linear and Notion
- Admins connect once from Settings or the Slack Marketplace; users recognized automatically
- Credits billed to the sender, permissions mirror the Lovable workspace
- Companion feature lets you publish Lovable apps as native Slack bots with no dev account
- Part of Slack's Add to Slack launch with ten AI creation platforms
Lovable now lives inside Slack. Mention @Lovable in any channel or send it a DM, and the same agent that builds full-stack apps in the browser will spin up projects, push changes, and answer questions about your data without leaving the conversation.
The integration is available now across all plan tiers, including Enterprise. A companion capability lets you publish any app built on Lovable as its own Slack bot, with no Slack developer account required.
What you can do from a thread
Once a workspace admin connects Lovable from Settings → Slack, anyone on the team can mention the agent inline. It replies inside a thread, shows progress as it works, and lets multiple people iterate on the same app in the same conversation. Everything runs against your real Lovable workspace under the same permissions, and anything started in Slack continues seamlessly in the Lovable editor.
The agent handles most of what you would do in the editor directly:
- Create a new project from a prompt
- Ship a change to an existing app
- Inspect edit history or ask what changed recently
- Query data inside an app you built
- Get quick answers about your projects without switching tabs
Messages consume credits billed to whoever sent them, not the admin who installed the bot.
Context the agent can actually see
Before acting, the agent reads recent messages in the conversation, so you do not have to re-paste whatever your team was just discussing. It also pulls in context from other connected tools in your workspace, such as Linear tickets or Notion docs. A prompt like "build us a dashboard for this" can land with the agent already knowing what "this" refers to.
Setup is a one-time admin step. Teammates are recognized automatically the first time they message the bot, with no per-user OAuth required.
Publishing your apps into Slack
Alongside the chat agent, Lovable shipped a second capability for builders. Any app you build can be published as its own Slack app without touching API keys or creating a Slack developer account. A workspace admin authorizes Slack once from Connectors → Slack → Your apps in Slack, and publishing drops the project into Slack with its own name and behavior.
This is part of a coordinated launch from Slack. The new Add to Slack program went live with ten creation platforms simultaneously, including Hyperagent, LangChain, Lovable, n8n, NanoClaw, OpenAI, Runlayer, Skydive, Superhuman, and Vercel. Slack's pitch is that teammates can mention, task, and interact with agents in open channels, turning solo automation tools into shared team assets.
Where this fits in Lovable's connector strategy
Lovable has been expanding its connector catalog for months, wiring apps to Linear, Notion, Stripe, Shopify, Google Workspace, and a range of vertical tools. Slack was already available as a connector, meaning apps built in Lovable could read and send messages. The new direction reverses that relationship: Lovable itself now lives inside Slack.
The practical upside is speed. A PM who can say "build a dashboard that watches our #incidents channel and shows the last 20 messages" and receive a working prototype without opening a browser has shaved the distance between idea and shipped internal tool down to a few messages.
Plan availability and constraints
The integration launched on Free, Pro, and Business plans, then extended to Enterprise workspaces about a week later. A few specifics worth knowing:
- Credits are billed to the person who sent the Slack message, not the admin who installed the bot
- Permissions mirror your Lovable workspace, so users can only touch projects they already have access to
- Work started in Slack picks up in the Lovable editor without any re-setup
- Multiple teammates can iterate on the same app inside a single shared thread
Full setup instructions are in the Lovable docs.
