Lovable alternative for PHP hosting

Q: Can I move my Lovable project to fortrabbit?

Not as it is - Lovable generates a React front end with a Supabase or Lovable Cloud backend. fortrabbit runs PHP only, so the project has to be rebuilt as a PHP application.

Q: Does fortrabbit run code written by AI agents?

Yes - PHP is PHP, whether a person or an agent typed it. Deploys are a git push, and the CLI and docs are readable by an agent.

Q: What does a small PHP app cost on fortrabbit?

About €5 a month - That covers the PHP runtime, a MySQL component, SSL and persistent storage. Billing is in arrears, and the 7-day trial needs no credit card.

Lovable gets an idea on screen in an afternoon. When it has to become a real PHP application, fortrabbit hosts that.

About Lovable

Lovable is an AI-powered builder that turns natural language descriptions into working web applications. It generates a React front end, backed by Supabase or Lovable Cloud, and publishes it with one click. It is aimed at founders and non-developers who want to move fast without hiring developers. The platform runs on a credit model: each AI interaction consumes credits.

Why not Lovable?

You already pay for AI. If you use Claude, ChatGPT or another assistant, those same tools write and refine application code too.

Hosting costs less when it is just hosting. Lovable bundles hosting with its AI tooling. Separate the two, and you get a cheaper hosting bill and the freedom to switch AI tools at any time.

The prototype grows up. Paying users, data that matters, a client asking who maintains this thing. That is the moment many teams rebuild on a stack they know.

Why fortrabbit

fortrabbit is a managed PHP hosting platform. You bring your own code, written by hand, generated by AI, or both. The code lives in your own Git repository from the start: read it, audit it, hand it to a developer, or move to another host. You get a full application stack with backend logic, a MySQL database, file storage and scheduled jobs.

We run PHP only, so a Lovable project gets rebuilt in Laravel, Symfony, Craft CMS, Statamic or Kirby. An agent may write a good part of that, and that's fine. See how agents deploy here.

# What customers say

Having fortrabbit is like having a dedicated DevOps engineer on the team, taking care of the infrastructure so we can focus on writing code. We've used many PaaS providers, but none come close to fortrabbit's mix of features, reliability, predictable and fair pricing, and fast, genuinely helpful support. Their service has been rock solid, giving us the confidence that our apps are in good hands.

2026 — Direct feedback

Unmatched performances and ease-of-configure. I really like what fortrabbit is doing for the modern PHP hosting ecosystem, and I'd suggest anyone to have a try with them.
