25 mins on Lovable — built a LP dashboard for a VC fund — this experience took me back in time to 5 years ago: A much worse prototype on Glide & Google Sheets took me ~48 hours — it was a massively painful experience to build.

This time around - the UI came together magically — Lovable’s internal intelligence was able to contextualize what a LP <> VC fund relationship is — lot of what you see on the screen was NOT explicitly prompted by me. Note: This was a test — free version, 10 prompts & didn’t work on Auth & Backend (data upload etc). Didn’t use any live company data. Phenomenal uplift in productivity — for all purposes, I am a non-technical person who built this in 25 minutes. AI is (un)real sometimes. Prompt & test URL added below:

The future is here - you just need to build it. Even as a VC fund & as VC investors, all of us on the investment team have built AI tooling to augment productivity. Will share a demo of one of the Agents in a few weeks from now. Kudos to @lovable_dev for building such a fantastic product — no wonder they’re adding > $1M ARR per week right now 🤯

One day I just woke up with the ability to post and grow my business 3+ years of posting Constant testing/refining Committing to the process It doesn’t happen quick, but once you build out your personal brand the leverage is insane

Experienced this with Bolt recently too. I think internal tooling to a large extent is now in the hands of every high agency operator in any org, engineer or not.

There's literally no excuse for not shipping.

Love this! I’m hooked to Lovable for the same reason - so easy to build.

as a SWE, the first question that pops up in my head is: do you think the prototype-to-production journey is smooth enough for a semi-technical person like yourself? would you still need human help with deploying this? I'm very curious what that experience would be like!

Good ad for a @HummingbirdVC port co ;)

Would you be confident of spending more time on this and giving it to your leadership team to use? Or Give this sample website to a Dev team and tell to make a production version?

I tried building an ai powered typefully alternative. It can be built of course but not in one prompt. I found v0 better at understanding what I wanted. And it did more in one prompt than lovable did in over ten prompts. Prompt was chatgpt generated btw.
