How much is the Lovable bug loop costing you?
Enter your plan and how many times you've clicked Fix on one stuck bug — and see the credits and dollars burned fixing errors the AI created instead of building.
On this one stuck bug, you have burned roughly
20 credits · $5.00
That is about 20% of your monthly credit allowance — spent fixing errors the AI created, not building features.
That is deep in the Bug Doom Loop. Past five credits on one bug, more Fix attempts usually make it worse. A flat-fee human fix is almost always cheaper than continuing to guess.
Estimate only. Enter your real plan numbers for an accurate figure — credit costs vary by plan and by chat vs. agent mode.
Why credits drain faster than you expect
The Fix button costs a credit
Every Fix click sends a fresh prompt to Lovable and spends a credit — whether or not it actually fixes anything.
Past 5 credits, stop
A single targeted fix is 1–3 credits. Spending more than five on one bug is the clearest sign you are in the Bug Doom Loop.
A human fix is flat-fee
We diagnose the real root cause once, fix it for a fixed price, and leave you a written explanation — no credit meter.
