AI site builder
Siteshare vs Lovable
Lovable is for building: an app or site from a prompt, with chat and visual edits. Siteshare is for after the build: an editor for the client the site is for. If your Lovable site is synced to GitHub, the two work side by side.
| Question | Siteshare | Lovable |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | An editor at the client's own site, /edit, on the site you built | An AI builder for apps and sites, with chat and edits in the preview |
| How a client edits | Chat, select or draw on the real site; double-click to type | Invited to your workspace or project as an Editor; chat, select, draw or inline text |
| Whose AI budget | The team's monthly budget; typing on the page is free | Collaborators use credits from the project owner's workspace |
| Limits per client | Four levels per client; changes above wait for approval | Project roles; an Editor can edit, publish and manage GitHub |
| Where the site lives | Your GitHub repository and your own host | Lovable hosting for Publish; two-way GitHub sync to a new repository |
| Before it goes live | A draft, a build check on a clean copy, then one commit on main | Drafts until Publish; backend configuration changes go live at once |
| Price | Free for 1 site, then $9 a site a month, down to $4 as you grow (5 sites $36, 20 sites $126); clients and builders unlimited | Free (5 credits a day), Pro from $25, Business from $50 a month, per workspace |
Building and handing over are different jobs
Lovable is very good at the first one. To let a client change the result there, you invite them into your workspace or project. As an Editor they get the full builder: chat, the preview toolbar, publishing and GitHub, and every prompt uses your workspace’s credits.
Siteshare is made for the second job. The client opens their own site at /edit and sees only that site. By default they change text and images; design and code stay yours, and anything beyond waits for your approval. Small fixes they type straight into the page, without using the assistant.
Use both
Keep building in Lovable. Sync the project to GitHub, add the repository to Siteshare, and invite your client there. Every publish from your client is one checked commit on main, so Lovable picks it up like any other change.
When Lovable is the better choice
- You're still building: Lovable is made for creating the app or site in the first place.
- The site uses Lovable's built-in backend (auth, database, storage).
- The person editing is part of your own team and may manage the whole project.
Questions
Can I use Siteshare on a site I built with Lovable?
Yes, if it's synced to a GitHub repository and runs on Node. Siteshare works on the repository; you can keep building in Lovable, and changes from both arrive as commits.
Why not just invite my client into Lovable?
You can. They then work in your workspace with your credits, and as an Editor they can also publish and manage GitHub. Siteshare gives them a narrower editor of their own, at their own site, with a level you set.
