Frequently asked questions
How is it different from Lovable Business or Enterprise?
Lovable also offers SSO and roles from its Business plan, and SCIM and audit logs on Enterprise. The biggest difference is how AI is paid for: instead of credits, Saycode connects Claude Code and Codex subscriptions and APIs, and the company manages the costs in one place.
Can people who are not developers use it?
Yes. With both services you describe what you want and AI builds it. Saycode carries on inside your company: the tool is deployed to an internal URL and colleagues can take it over and fix it.
Can we use Lovable and Saycode together?
Yes. They serve different purposes, so you can use Lovable for public web apps and Saycode for work tools used inside your company.
