AI coding startup Lovable closed a $400 million Series C funding round at a $13.3 billion post-money valuation, according to the company's announcement. The round doubles Lovable's valuation from $6.6 billion in December 2025.
The eight-month jump from $6.6 billion to $13.3 billion tracks with investor appetite for AI developer tools. Lovable's core product generates full-stack web applications from natural language prompts, positioning it in a segment that has drawn significant venture capital as enterprises test AI coding assistants.
Lovable has built traction among developers since its 2023 launch. The startup's product integrates with code generation, allowing users to describe features in plain English and receive deployable applications. The Series C funds expansion of Lovable's engineering team, product capabilities, and go-to-market operations.
The valuation trajectory places Lovable among the fastest-scaling AI startups by speed of capital deployment. Few AI-first developer tools have moved from $6.6 billion to $13.3 billion in under a year, though comparable growth rates have appeared in large language model infrastructure plays and enterprise automation platforms during periods of peak venture allocation to the sector.
Series C rounds for AI developer tools have averaged between $150 million and $300 million in 2026, making Lovable's $400 million commitment a significant outlier by check size and valuation in that category.
