Lovable: Built by Anton
Anton Osika didn’t chase hype. He built a quiet storm—and it’s only getting louder.
Before Lovable hit $10M ARR in just two months, Anton Osika was building in the open. No VC headlines. No launch event. Just code, conviction, and community.
A former Spotify engineer (and early Sana Labs/Depict.ai builder), Anton created GPT-Engineer—an open-source tool that turned prompts into apps—laying the groundwork for what’s next. Enter Lovable: a full-stack app builder powered entirely by natural language. He built it in public. Shipped fast. Shared everything on X.
Two months later:
→ $10M+ annual run rate
→ Team of 15 (now 18)
→ 300,000 monthly active users, 30,000 paid subscribers
→ One of Europe’s fastest-growing AI startups
No splashy brand. Just results. And a founder obsessed with the craft.
