Lovable’s is entering their TikTok distribution era.
Their hack: rage bait devs with AI demos that barely work and scale it across every angle.
You’ve (very likely) seen the posts:
“I BUILT NETFLIX IN 1 MINUTE ????”
or
“Rebuilding Spotify in under 60 Seconds”
They’ve got vibecoders on payroll doing split-screen walkthroughs:
Prompt ChatGPT to write a Lovable prompt > paste it into Lovable > show it “building” a fake version of a popular app.
That’s the whole play.
It doesn’t matter that the outcome looks nothing like Netflix. That’s the point.
The goal is to rage bait non-tech viewers into thinking it’s real, and bait devs into fighting them in the comments:
“There’s no back-end.”
“This is just a front-end.”
“This is AI slop.”
The more hate, the more views. It’s classic bait content.
They’re pushing this strategy across a dozen different accounts, with most of the creators using the same exact script and flow.
So far, it’s netted 5M+ views.
But here’s something weird. They’re using some of these accounts in non-US or third world countries. Not sure why. Possibly to test geo engagement? Possibly for cheaper creator labor? Doesn’t seem like there’s a growth reason behind it (yet).
That’s not all. Lovable’s been testing other formats too.
At first, they tried a street-show concept, literally walking around with a laptop, showing off Lovable to strangers.
Cool idea, visually interesting. But it flopped. They did a few videos, then quietly dropped it.
They brought it back recently on @lovable.app with more dynamic edits—this time it worked better. One video pulled in nearly 100K views.
Then they tested a mass-clip strategy, mining every podcast appearance from the founders, cutting it up, and dumping the clips across multiple TikTok accounts.
There was also a short-lived experiment with slideshow posts—on one of their side accounts…
…posted literally one day after Replit dropped their own AI slideshow TikTok.
Nothing original. Just rapid fire cloning + volume.
The current winner? Still the “I built X in 60 seconds” format. Rage bait. AI bait. Vibecoder edits. Spam it across every account until something sticks.
