What this page does not answer

We hold Cursor’s repository facts and nothing checked for Lovable: no commit history, no licence, no release and no price. One column of facts is not a comparison, so this page names no winner and states no difference between the two. Tools get a full page in the order people search for them, and this one changes on the next build after that happens.

Questions people ask

Are Cursor and Lovable still maintained?
Cursor has taken no commit on cursor/cursor (main) for 148 days; the newest is 12 May 2026. Lovable has no repository we track. Both readings come from the default branch of each repository, on the date shown beside them.

How we check this page

  • Machine facts. Stars, contributors, the newest commit on the default branch, the licence GitHub reports and the latest stable release come from the GitHub API, and download counts from npm, PyPI, Homebrew and the VS Code Marketplace. Each value carries the day it was last confirmed, never the day this page was built. The line under each label is arithmetic on those two values.
  • Judgments. Every claim about what a tool suits, what it is bad at and what it costs is quoted from a page we read, and that page is linked beside the claim. Where there is no link, we wrote no claim.
  • Index status. We track Cursor's repository and hold nothing checked for Lovable, so there is no comparison to make yet. So this page asks search engines not to index it, and it will ask again on every build until the data changes.
