Overall Summary
Suspicious
Why we think so

Quick take: lovable.dev is a high‑traffic AI app builder (tens of millions of monthly visits) with a verified company presence in Stockholm and recent high‑profile press coverage. ⚠️ At the same time, multiple security researchers and news outlets document large‑scale abuse of the platform — criminals have used Lovable to spin up phishing pages that steal credentials and drain crypto wallets. The site itself is not flagged by Google Safe Browsing and shows standard security/verification records, but the abuse risk means you should treat any site built on this platform cautiously and verify the destination before entering credentials or payments.

Risk Insights

⚠️

High scale, real company — but abused for phishing

Lovable.dev shows real company signals: funding coverage, Google Places listing, and strong web traffic (~21M/month).
Security researchers and Proofpoint documented thousands of malicious URLs built on the platform.
Treat pages hosted on this platform like third‑party content; verify origin before trusting credentials or payments.

Contradictory Signals

The main domain and official site are technically legitimate, but many malicious subdomains/sites hosted via the platform are malicious — so a clean Safe Browsing check does not eliminate risk.

Signal A: No Google Safe Browsing flags and strong DNS/SSL records

Signal B: Multiple security reports documenting large‑scale abuse of the platform to host phishing and wallet‑draining pages

Red Flags & Warnings

  • Public legal disputes with established vendors (Figma cease‑and‑desist) increase operational risk and regulatory scrutiny.

🔎 Detailed Checks & Analysis

Domain tech & infrastructure (similartech_v1)

Score: 85/100
Passed

"Presence of Stripe verification and multiple google-site-verification TXT records indicates a maintained production site with payment and verification integrations."

Reason: Modern stack detected (Cloudflare, AWS, Stripe, Google Analytics), HTTPS present and multiple verification TXT records.

Traffic volume & engagement (similar_web_api_v1)

Score: 88/100
Passed

"High engagement and traffic rank (~2,500 globally) are strong trust signals for platform scale."

Reason: SimilarWeb reports ~21M monthly visits, strong pages/visit and time on site indicating widespread legitimate usage.

Traffic stats / competitor data (website_traffic_stats_v1)

Score: 30/100
Failed

"One source lacked data; use SimilarWeb/SimilarTech for the traffic picture instead."

Reason: Requested traffic dataset returned no data, leaving a visibility gap for some analytics.

Contact details & social presence (website_contacts_scraper_v1)

Score: 80/100
Passed

"No public phone number found in scraped contacts, but emails and social links are consistent with a SaaS vendor."

Reason: Published support and sales emails plus multiple social profiles (Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook) provide clear contact paths.

WHOIS / DNS / SSL checks (whois_dns_ssl_v1)

Score: 85/100
Passed

"Certificate validity window and DNS setup are normal for a production SaaS site; TTLs and NS records point to Cloudflare protection."

Reason: Valid SSL certificate, Cloudflare nameservers, SPF/MX records and verification TXT records observed.

Trademark search (uspto_trademark_search_v1)

Score: 70/100
Passed

"Absence from USPTO registry does not prevent private cease‑and‑desist actions; monitor for ongoing filings."

Reason: No direct USPTO trademark matches for the queried term, but public brand disputes (Figma) exist in press.

Crypto scam blacklist (crypto_scam_sniffer_v1)

Score: 75/100
Passed

"Platform has been used to host crypto‑draining scam pages, but the domain itself is not currently listed on this blacklist."

Reason: Domain not found on the supplied crypto scam blacklist.

Google Safe Browsing (google_safe_browsing_v1)

Score: 78/100
Passed

"Safe Browsing not flagging the domain is useful, but it does not prevent malicious subdomains or hosted pages from being abused."

Reason: No matched threats in the provided Safe Browsing results.

Maps listing & reviews (google_places_v1)

Score: 80/100
Passed

"A verified place listing is a meaningful identity signal for company legitimacy."

Reason: Google Places shows a physical address in Stockholm with a 4.3 rating and ~239 reviews.

News & security reporting (google_news_v1 / perplexity_questions_v1)

Score: 40/100
Failed

"High‑visibility funding and press (TechCrunch) coexist with security research documenting large‑scale malicious use of the platform."

Reason: Multiple articles detail both rapid growth/funding and security abuse; the abuse reports are material and lower overall trust.

Your Next Steps

  • 1
    When you encounter a site claiming to be a known brand, verify the URL carefully (look for exact domain, certificate details, and official vendor links) before entering credentials or connecting wallets.
  • 2
    Avoid entering payment or wallet keys on pages you did not reach from an official vendor domain; prefer bookmarked or search‑verified links.
  • 3
    If you see a suspicious site hosted on lovable.dev, report it to Lovable (support@lovable.dev) and to Google Safe Browsing; collect screenshots and the exact URL.
  • 4
    For businesses: monitor for impersonations, register key trademarks, and set up automated takedown/monitoring (proofing WHOIS, brand alerts, and abuse reporting contacts).
  • 5
    If you purchased credits and lost access or funds, contact support@lovable.dev and your payment provider immediately and file a report with local law enforcement if financial theft occurred.
