Firebase Studio vs Lovable
Read from each vendor’s own pages last night, so it does not go stale the way a written comparison does.
Before you read on · Sunset since 2 August 2026
Firebase Studio has had an access tier withdrawn; check what is still available before choosing it.
firebase.studio carries a banner: "We're sunsetting Firebase Studio on March 22, 2027 so you can no longer create new workspaces. Move your code to Google AI Studio or Google Antigravity." Still usable until then, but it is not a tool to start a project on.
