Why not Lovable, Replit or v0 — when Haloo is yours, completely

Lovable, Replit, Bolt, v0 — you generate an app from a prompt in minutes. It is impressive. But the question that matters comes after the demo: who owns what you built, and where does it run?

These tools are great for validating an idea. But a company website lives for years. As long as you are on their platform, you depend on their pricing, their uptime and their product decisions. If they raise the price, change the terms or shut the service down, your content is stuck there.

• The code is on disk — you read it and change it, no black box.
• The data lives in a single SQLite file, on your server.
• The hosting is yours, from €5 — move the site anytime by copying a folder.
• No subscription per seat or per generation: you only pay for the AI tokens you use, with your own key.

• Where it runs: on your server (Haloo) vs on the platform account (Lovable/Replit/v0).
• Cost: hosting + AI tokens vs a recurring monthly subscription.
• Exit: all the code is yours, exportable anytime vs limited export and lock-in.
• Best for: a durable content site (Haloo) vs a fast app prototype (them).

For an app prototype with complex logic, an MVP to show investors or a weekend experiment, AI builders are fantastic. Haloo does not try to be that. Haloo is for content sites — marketing, blog, catalog — that you want to own, edit easily and keep for ten years.

The same time-to-launch, the same AI help — without renting your own website. With Haloo, what you build stays yours: the code, the data, the decision. Completely.
