What's next

Upvote is live. People are using it. At some point in the next week, you're going to have one of these thoughts. Here's where to go when you do.

"I want to charge for this." Lovable has built-in payments powered by Paddle and Stripe. Just describe what you need in the chat, such as "Add three subscription tiers" or "Create a one-time checkout for $49", and Lovable analyzes your project, recommends a provider, creates the products and prices, and generates the checkout flow, the database tables, and the UI. You can test with test cards in the preview before going live.

"I want it to send real emails." Right now the admin response lives inside the app. But your users aren't checking Upvote every day. They want an email that says "Your request was marked as Planned." The Resend connector lets you connect your email service to Lovable, then prompt Lovable to trigger emails when a status changes. Later you can add welcome sequences, weekly digests, and branded templates.

"I want my team on this." Workspaces let you invite people by email and assign roles like Admin, Editor, or Viewer. Everyone sees changes in real time. When your co-founder moves a request to "In Progress," you see it on your screen without refreshing.

"I want Slack notifications when something happens." The Slack connector lets your app send messages to channels, post alerts, and deliver digests, all from a connection you set up once in your workspace settings. When someone submits a new request or a status changes, your team finds out in Slack automatically.

"I want the AI to match my brand voice." That's what Knowledge is for. You write your conventions once — tone, vocabulary, structure, phrases to always use, phrases to never say — and save it at the project or workspace level. Every AI generation reads it automatically. One set of rules, permanent effect.

"I want a developer to help." GitHub sync connects your project to a code repository with two-way sync. A developer can make improvements in their own tools, push the changes, and they appear in your Lovable editor. Your code is standard, portable, and yours. No lock-in. You can export anytime.

"I want to connect my design files and docs." Connectors let you link tools like Figma, Notion, Linear, and others directly to Lovable. Then you can prompt with context: "Update the request card to match the Figma file called Upvote Redesign" or "Build this feature based on the spec in Notion." Any connected tool becomes context the AI can reference while it builds.

"I want my own domain." Custom domains let you host at feedback.yourcompany.com, or any custom domain, instead of upvote.lovable.app. Buy a domain directly through Lovable or connect one you already own. Five minutes, start to finish.

Every one of these follows the same loop you've been using for the last hour. Describe what you want. See what you get. Refine until it's right.

The rhythm is the same. It always is. You already know it.

Now go build something Lovable.
