Greta Reviews

People will have different ways of working with it.

I got the 3000 credits a month, and I've prototyped many an app in the first month.

The initial designs are awesome, and with one-shot.

My favourite way of working with Greta, is to get the project something like, then download to Windsurf and prompt that to get the product working as I see fit.

Don't get me wrong, you can get a working app with Greta, but I like to have control even more so and it works great with Windsurf.

I cloned a HackerNews-style site within 10 hours by using Greta.

It's not bad. I spent around 700 credits to create the site.

It's easy to use with minimum setup on Supabase and Netlify.

I give it 4 tacos, as sometimes the AI will say it has finished the bug fix, but the bugs are still here. It's normal for most AI.

I think the credit counting is fair enough. One conversation 10 credit. (If the credits are infinity, it can't sustain in the long run.

Looking forward to Greta's improvement.

If you're into vibe coding, buy this deal before its gone! I have subscriptions for Lovable, Cursor, Bolt and tested Greta and based on first try - bought tier 2. I had a project today and put the same prompt into Lovable and Greta. The Greta version is now live and the Lovable version is not going to be touched again - the quality different was amazing. Greta is a brilliant tool. Please keep up the excellent work!!

If you're comparing Greta to Lovable, here’s why that’s misleading for non-techies like me:

🔍 1. Hosting? Not Included

Greta gives you a preview link, not real hosting.

You’ll need to set up a Netlify account to go live.

That’s extra steps, extra accounts, extra confusion.

🌐 2. Custom Domains = Techie Detour

Greta requires you to manually connect DNS via Netlify.

That’s not beginner-friendly — that’s “watch three tutorials” territory.

Lovable? One-click domain setup, no drama.

🛠️ 3. No Visual Builder

Greta uses prompt → generate → edit manually.

Lovable lets you drag, drop, and publish like Canva for websites.

🤷🏽‍♂️ 4. For Non-Techies? Not Quite Yet

Greta’s founder admits: custom domain setup needs some steps.

Guides help, but it’s still not plug-and-play.

Lovable actually delivers on the “non-techie” promise today.
I would love the Founder to give an E.T.A. for Greta to truly be as Lovable!

First let me emphasize as the title suggests, that Greta has a lot of promise and is quite innovative! If you are designing a simple app, it will handle the task quite readily and provide a mockup/demo for you to see. If you have a specific code/framework that you prefer, be sure to specify that upfront as it will likely make the choice for you and steer you towards deployment solutions they have chosen. Not a bad thing, just be ready. Unfortunately I hit several walls in development as it would no longer take input on a project even though I had plenty of credits. I also wasted a lot of credits during the process asking for revisions over and over on the same issue. Many times it will create a beautiful looking demo, but none of the links or navigation would work as they should...so more of a mock up, even though I would ask it to make the app production ready for deployment. I have spent a lot of time with AI and am well versed in prompts, and I also have been developing for almost 20 years, so I know what and how to ask it to build. Finally, another reason I'm only giving 3 tacos, Support has not responded to any of my messages regarding the issues above. I am hopeful they will continue to improve Greta, and then I can begin to use again!
