The stack you'd otherwise assemble, in one place

Lovable writes code. Supabase stores data. Stripe moves money. AWS runs servers. They're all excellent — and you still have to be the one who wires them together and keeps them working. Chinook is the whole thing, already wired.

Built in, no wiring Possible, but you build and maintain it Not what it does
