Overview

This course connects Lovable with the everyday processes of Construction & Architecture. Participants work on realistic scenarios and leave with prompts, workflows and checklists they can use straight away.

Lovable lets you build web applications simply by describing what you need, with no programming knowledge required. In this course, business users from marketing, sales, HR, operations or product management learn how to turn an idea into a clickable, working application within hours: a landing page for a campaign, an internal tool for logging requests, a simple customer portal or a prototype that helps you pitch an idea convincingly inside your organisation.

The course is hands-on throughout. You work on a small project of your own and learn to state requirements clearly, store data securely, set up logins and publish the result. Just as important is a realistic perspective: which projects you can deliver without IT support, when to involve IT or your data protection officer, and how to hand a successful prototype over to a development team. That way you use Lovable productively without creating shadow IT or security risks.

Construction projects generate vast amounts of documentation: tenders, bills of quantities, specifications, minutes, snagging lists, variations, correspondence with authorities and standards. Architecture practices, engineering consultancies, contractors and clients spend a great deal of time on writing work that generative AI can speed up considerably. AI assistants help draft specification clauses, turn voice notes into site meeting minutes, structure variation claims, write competition and design statements and review extensive contract documents. Image-generating AI supports early design and visualisation stages. Professional and legal liability remains with designers and contractors – AI is a tool, not a substitute for knowledge of standards, structural engineering or site management.

The course is delivered live – either online in a virtual classroom or on-site in our training rooms in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart and Kaiserslautern. We can also run it exclusively for your team.

  • What Lovable can do and what happens behind the scenes, explained plainly
  • Breaking an idea down into goal, user groups, pages and content
  • Writing your first prompt and judging the result
  • Making small, precise change requests instead of starting from scratch
Module 2 Landing pages and web presence
  • Campaign and event pages with a clear message and call to action
  • Adding images, copy and your corporate design
  • Contact and registration forms that store submissions
  • Checking how pages look on mobile and desktop
Module 3 Internal tools and forms
  • Building input forms, overview lists and simple dashboards
  • Storing data in a database without writing SQL
  • Setting up logins and roles: who may see and change what
  • Spotting typical errors and fixing them with the undo history
Module 4 Customer portals and prototypes
  • Simple portals for customers or partners with a protected area
  • Clickable prototypes for product ideas and stakeholder presentations
  • Collecting feedback and implementing iterations in a focused way
  • Handing a well-documented prototype over to development or IT
Module 5 Publishing, security and ground rules
  • Publishing your app and making it available on your own domain
  • Personal data, GDPR and coordination with IT and data protection
  • Costs, usage limits and realistic effort
  • Recognising when a project belongs in professional developers’ hands
Module 6 Hands-on project: your own solution for Construction & Architecture
  • Site snagging app – A mobile web app for recording defects with photo and description, assigning them to trades and exporting a list with status and deadlines.
  • Minutes generator – An internal tool that captures agenda items, attendees and actions and produces minutes in the practice layout with an open items list.
  • Variations tracker – A small application that manages variations with reason, amount, status and correspondence and gives a clear overview per project. Deadlines are colour-coded.
Module 7 Data protection, quality & transfer to daily work
  • Professional and legal liability for design, tendering and site supervision remains with the designer or contractor; AI output must be checked against standards, building regulations and contract terms. Public contracts are subject to procurement law and tender confidentiality, and copyright in designs must be respected.
  • Ground rules for safe AI use in your team
  • Checking results: facts, sources, tests and the four-eyes principle
  • Personal action plan for the next 30 days
  • Open questions, outlook and resources for further learning

Practical scenarios from your field

Drafting specifications

AI helps write clear and complete item descriptions for bills of quantities, spot gaps and contradictions and structure preliminaries – reviewed by the designer. Gaps are flagged for the designer.

Site meeting minutes

Voice notes and bullet points from site meetings or inspections become structured minutes with findings, responsibilities and deadlines, circulated to all parties. Photos are linked to each item.

Variations and correspondence

Delay notices, variation quotes, notices of concern and replies are prepared objectively and in line with the contract, with reference to the relevant contractual provisions.

Reviewing contract documents

Building contracts, special conditions and specifications are summarised for deadlines, liquidated damages, warranties and departures from standard terms, as a basis for legal review. Differences between contract versions are highlighted too.

Competition and design statements

Design concepts, sustainability strategies and project descriptions for competitions, planning applications or presentations are written concisely and tailored to different audiences. Length limits in competition briefs are respected.

Defects management

Defect reports are classified by trade and location, descriptions standardised and letters requesting remedial work with deadlines prepared. Progress stays transparent for site management and client alike.

Possible hands-on projects

Site snagging app

A mobile web app for recording defects with photo and description, assigning them to trades and exporting a list with status and deadlines.

Minutes generator

An internal tool that captures agenda items, attendees and actions and produces minutes in the practice layout with an open items list.

Variations tracker

A small application that manages variations with reason, amount, status and correspondence and gives a clear overview per project. Deadlines are colour-coded.

Frequently asked questions

Do I own the code Lovable generates?

Yes. The output is standard React and TypeScript code that you can push to your own repository via the GitHub sync. From there it can be developed, tested and deployed entirely independently of Lovable. In the course we show you how to set this up properly from day one so you avoid any lock-in.

Is Lovable suitable for production applications?

For prototypes, MVPs, internal tools and modest customer-facing apps, yes, provided you review security and the data model carefully. Supabase Row Level Security, secrets handling and the maintainability of a growing codebase all need attention. The course covers exactly which checks make sense before you go live.

How does Lovable differ from Cursor or Claude Code?

Lovable is a browser-based app builder with a fixed stack, built-in hosting and Supabase integration, which makes it ideal for getting started quickly. Cursor and Claude Code work inside any existing codebase and technology. Many teams combine them: start in Lovable, then continue in the editor via GitHub.

Can AI produce a bill of quantities?

AI can draft item descriptions, suggest structures and highlight gaps. Quantities, technical requirements and alignment with standards and design remain the responsibility of the designer, who is also liable. In the course you practise using AI as a drafting aid and reviewing results systematically.

Can drawings and plans be uploaded to AI tools?

Only if confidentiality agreements, copyright and your firm's policies allow it and the tool is approved. Strict requirements apply especially for security-sensitive buildings or public clients. The course shows how to work with approved solutions and sanitised documents. Project names and addresses can be removed beforehand.

How much does “Lovable for Construction and Architecture” cost?

The course costs a flat €949 plus VAT per participant – whether online or on-site. This includes 1 training day(s) with a live trainer, course materials, a lab environment and a certificate of attendance.

Can I suggest my own date?

Yes. Our suggested dates are just a guide. In the request form you can always describe your preferred date or period in free text – we check availability and confirm within one working day.

Is the course online or on-site?

Both are possible: live online in a virtual classroom or on-site in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart or Kaiserslautern. We can also run the course exclusively for your team.
