Monthly Cloud Cost Estimates is Lovable's Cloud feature: See the estimated monthly Cloud cost of each database size.
Before changing your project’s database size, the Manage instance dialog now shows an estimated monthly Cloud cost in credits under each size. Lovable bases the estimate on your app’s Cloud usage over the last 30 days.
Monthly Cloud Cost Estimates 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 Monthly Cloud Cost Estimates working in a real project rather than a sandbox.
Set up Monthly Cloud Cost Estimates in this project — see the estimated monthly Cloud cost of each database size. 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
Monthly Cloud Cost Estimates 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 Monthly Cloud Cost Estimates before I publish. Check estimate monthly costs and analyze database size costs, 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. Monthly Cloud Cost Estimates sits in Cloud, and not every project needs it.
I am building the project in this workspace. Given that Monthly Cloud Cost Estimates see the estimated monthly Cloud cost of each database size, 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.
