Emil Ahlbäck

I'm an engineer based in Stockholm. I worked at Lovable, where I wrote some of the first code and built the company's enterprise offering. I wrote about how it came together.

I also created Visual Edits, Lovable's Figma-like interface for editing applications directly.

Before Lovable, I launched Godmode, an early AI agent used by more than a million people.

I occasionally invest in early-stage companies, mostly in AI and developer tools. The best way to reach me is on X.
