Lovable has announced a major education initiative: the platform is now free for teachers and students in classrooms until the end of the year.
In partnership with Hour of AI, Imagi, and OpenAI, Lovable is opening its app-building and “vibe coding” environment to schools, making it easier for educators to run hands-on lessons where students design and build real products — not just watch demos.
This move positions Lovable as one of the most accessible AI-powered building tools for classrooms, especially for schools looking to introduce AI, coding, and product thinking without overwhelming students with complex developer workflows.
Lovable for Education: What Teachers Can Do in the Classroom
With free access for classroom use, teachers can now:
- Organize project-based lessons where students build simple apps and tools with Lovable
- Use Lovable as a visual introduction to software design, UX, and AI-assisted development
- Run Hour of AI–style workshops where students explore how AI can help them build usable products
- Encourage creativity, experimentation and problem-solving without needing advanced coding skills
Because Lovable handles front-end, back-end, and deployment in a single environment, it’s well-suited for short-format sessions, hack days, and themed tech weeks.
A Collaboration With Hour of AI, Imagi and OpenAI
The initiative is being rolled out together with Hour of AI, Imagi, and OpenAI, combining:
- Curriculum and classroom structure (Hour of AI)
- Creative coding for kids & teens (Imagi)
- World-class AI models and capabilities (OpenAI)
- Vibe coding and end-to-end app building (Lovable)
This ecosystem makes it possible for teachers — even those without a deep technical background — to guide students through real build experiences, where they can see an idea become a working interface in a single class.
Why This Matters for AI & Coding Education
As schools around the world look for ways to introduce AI literacy, no-code/low-code skills, and digital creativity, tools like Lovable offer:
- A gentler learning curve than traditional coding IDEs
- Real-time visual feedback that keeps students engaged
- A way to teach UX, logic, and problem-solving — not just syntax
- A modern alternative to static slide-based lessons
For students, building with AI in real time can demystify how modern apps and tools are created. For teachers, it offers a ready-to-use, free resource they can plug into existing STEM, computer science, design, or entrepreneurship curricula.
“Send This to Your Favorite Teacher”
Lovable is actively encouraging its community to share the news with teachers, inviting them to run what the team calls “the most lovable lesson of the year.”
With the platform free for classroom use until year-end, this initiative gives schools a timely opportunity to:
- Test AI-powered creation tools with real students
- Pilot new classroom experiences without budget barriers
- Inspire the next generation of builders, designers, and founders
