## Source excerpt

Starting today, builds in Lovable are faster, without any drop in quality. Opus 5.5 is now available in Lovable, and it gets you the same results as Opus 5 while finishing in a third to half fewer steps. That means less waiting on long edits, and no compromise on what gets shipped. Under the hood, that's because Opus 5.5 gathers context in one pass, makes fewer and more complete edits, and doesn't circle back unnecessarily to re-check its work. It's also more disciplined about verification.
