Lovable, the AI-powered app-building platform, introduced a feature called drafts that lets a user copy a project, edit that copy separately, and only fold the result into the published app once someone accepts and hits publish, according to the company’s own blog post. Each draft keeps its own chat and preview, so a teammate, client, or copywriter can attempt a redesign while the live app and its data keep running untouched.
Lovable says the current release covers front-end elements only: colors, fonts, layout, headlines, imagery, and similar copy or design changes. Anything altering a database schema or login setup still requires editing the shared project directly, and drafts read against the already-published database rather than an isolated one.
This is branching, a practice developers have relied on in version control for decades, applied here to a prompt-driven builder. The harder question Lovable has not addressed is whether it can offer that parallel experimentation without also inheriting the merge conflicts that make branching difficult once two collaborators touch overlapping parts of an interface.
Teams running one Lovable project with multiple contributors can now hand each person a separate draft instead of taking turns inside a single chat thread.
Lovable detailed the drafts feature in a post on its company blog.
