BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (August 12, 2026) — Regent, the global holding company founded by investor Michael Reinstein, today announced its investment in Lovable’s $400 million Series C financing at a $13.3 billion valuation. The round was led by Menlo Ventures and co-led by the Scaleup Europe Fund, managed by EQT; Regent joins as the round’s new U.S. investor.
Regent’s investment follows its adoption of Lovable across its global portfolio. Regent uses Lovable to develop software and AI-enabled tools that support operations across its companies, and Regent’s own corporate website was built and is hosted on Lovable.
“We were customers before we were investors,” said Michael Reinstein, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Regent. “I’ve spent my career buying, building and transforming businesses, and the constraint is rarely ideas — it’s the distance between the person who sees a problem and the ability to solve it. Lovable collapses that distance. We experienced that firsthand as customers across Regent, and it’s what gave me the conviction to back the company. This isn’t simply a faster way to build software. It’s a different way to run a business.”
Lovable enables people to build software using natural language, putting the ability to create applications directly into the hands of entrepreneurs and teams inside established businesses. Since launching in November 2024, more than 60 million projects have been created on the platform, Lovable-built applications see more than 900 million visits monthly, and the platform has reached employees at nearly two-thirds of Fortune 500 companies.
Reinstein founded Regent as a long-term holding company focused on acquiring, building and transforming businesses across industries. The Lovable investment reflects Regent’s broader conviction that artificial intelligence will become a central driver of business transformation across its global portfolio.
“AI has the potential to transform virtually every business,” Reinstein said. “Our approach at Regent is to deploy it, learn from it and back the technologies we believe can fundamentally change how companies operate. Lovable is one of those technologies.”
Regent looks forward to supporting Lovable co-founders Anton Osika and Fabian Hedin and their team as the company continues to scale globally.
