Launch - Dec 2024

### GPT Engineer becomes Lovable and opens to everyone

The team rebranded the GPT Engineer app to Lovable and launched open access — a chat-first builder that turns a description into a deployable full-stack app, no setup required. It immediately became the platform's growth engine, with tens of thousands of new projects spun up daily.

**Real apps built by chatting with Lovable — portfolios, blogs, presentation tools, and storefronts.**

### Two Swedes turn a viral open-source coding experiment into a company

Anton Osika's open-source GPT Engineer — which let an LLM scaffold a whole app from a prompt — raced to tens of thousands of GitHub stars in 2023. With Fabian Hedin he turned it into a commercial product and founded the company in Stockholm.
