Extended-retention Models feature
GACloudReleased Sep 2026EnterpriseSource: docs.lovable.dev
Part of the Lovable Cloud & AI platform:Lovable Cloud
Extended-retention Models feature is Lovable's Cloud feature: Opt into additional models with longer provider retention on Enterprise.
Enterprise admins and owners can opt into additional models with longer provider retention. Providers keep prompts and outputs for 30 days or more; this data is not used to train AI models. Safety-flagged content or legal holds can extend retention to two years. Review the linked terms before enabling.
Extended-retention Models feature is one surface of Lovable Cloud — the managed backend behind Lovable apps, covering Postgres, storage, authentication, edge functions, and model access inside a single project.
Example workflows
Starting points built from this record, not transcripts of a run. Each prompt is written the way it should be sent, as one paragraph, and each is worth editing before you send it.
Stand it up from scratch
You have read the record and want Extended-retention Models feature working in a real project rather than a sandbox.
Set up Extended-retention Models feature in this project — opt into additional models with longer provider retention on Enterprise. Walk it end to end, tell me exactly what you changed, and flag anything I have to switch on myself before it works.
Expected outcomeA working setup, a plain list of what changed, and a short list of anything left for you to switch on. Check that list before assuming it is done.
Review it before you publish
Extended-retention Models feature is wired in and you are about to put it in front of people. This is the pass that catches the half-configured version.
Review how this project uses Extended-retention Models feature before I publish. Check workspace-wide opt-in for additional eligible models and use extended-retention models while building and in published app AI, list anything that is missing, misconfigured, or only half wired, fix what is safe to fix, and tell me what you left alone and why.
Expected outcomeA findings list split into what was fixed and what was left, with a reason for each. Anything left alone is yours to decide on.
Decide whether it fits your project
Worth five minutes before you wire anything in. Extended-retention Models feature sits in Cloud, and not every project needs it.
I am building the project in this workspace. Given that Extended-retention Models feature opt into additional models with longer provider retention on Enterprise, tell me honestly whether it fits what I am building, including the cases where I should not use it. If it does fit, give me the single smallest first step.
Expected outcomeA direct yes or no with the reasoning, the cases against it, and one first step. Treat a hedged answer as a no.
