Mistral recently being valued at $14 billion in the previous funding appears like a steal to me, especially compared to the Anthropic and OAI valuations. Would be interesting to compare revenues and growth rates as well to put these valuations into better perspective.

Apart from that, Mistral appears to remain the only really relevant new player with European ties in the Gen AI space. Aleph Alpha is not heard of anymore and is essentially steered by the Schwarz Group now, so at least chances of an acquihire I guess.

Lovable has the worst moat I have ever seen for a company.

Our engineer used lovable for about a day, then just cloned the repo and used cursor since it it was much more productive.

Engineers aren't the target audience for Lovable. I see it being used by designers and product managers, and also solopreneur type people, or non-technical folks wanting to build websites or start companies.

One PM I know uses it for designing prototypes then handing them off to the engineering team who then continue them in Claude Code etc.

So it's sorta of competing with Wix, Squarespace, Wordpress, and also prototyping tools like Figma.
